Sentinel® Secure Smart DropboxTM
Level up your vote-by-mail security
with the Sentinel Secure Smart Dropbox.
Sentinel is the newest innovation in election dropbox solutions. A front-facing camera takes a photo of the voter as they insert their envelope. A barcode scanner reads the envelope and captures an image of the envelope and signature. Sturdy, steel construction, fire suppression, and locks make Sentinel the most secure, and only smart solution in election dropboxes.
