Comments on: Key Keepers & Why You Need One http://tipnut.com/key-keepers/ Creative Homemaking Ideas & Household Tips Sun, 21 Mar 2010 04:36:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Virginia http://tipnut.com/key-keepers/#comment-68740 Virginia Mon, 08 Mar 2010 22:34:09 +0000 http://tipnut.com/?p=1500#comment-68740 Advising people to put the key keeper near the most used exit is just asking for someone to steal from you. My daughter and son-in-law had their keys hung up on a key keeper and a visitor stole the keys and later that night, stole their car...ltheif was his brother. Key keepers can be put in your bedroom on a closet wall, out of sight and much safer from friends and relatives or service persons who may not be as trustworthy as you think. I have never had a problem with keeping my keys in my purse,and the purse in my be3droom closet, but one visitor empties his wallet onto the coffee table till he is ready to go home so got him his own box that sits on the shelf in the coat closet so no one with sticky fingers will get to them and we remind him if he is heading out without his stuff.

If you have to vacate your premises in an emergency all you have to do is grab your pants and or your purse and you have transportation because you have your keys.

I even do this when I am out and after locking the car I clip the keys onto the purse and drop them inside, still attached to the handle by the carabiner. I never have to search for keys, whether at home or out.

You can put a key hook or something similar on the wall behind the door. It works for my keys AND my glasses.

I'll update the info so it's clear not to literally keep the keys within reach of an opening (if you have one). Great tip amanda, thanks so much for pointing that out!

We have had a spate of burglaries in our town (including my own house) where the burglars have 'fished' for the keys through the letterbox or catflap. The advice of police here in the UK is to take the keys upstairs to bed with you. Keeping your keys near your front or back door is NOT a good idea.
