Tips not to lose keys

You have had a busy day. In one hand a bag full of groceries to prepare dinner with and on the other hand a whining and tired toddler with hunger. The only purpose is to get home quickly, park the toddler in front of the television and prepare food. Until… you come to the conclusion that you have lost the keys. You switch Slotenmaker Holland to get your lockout fixed quickly and professionally, but what can you do to avoid losing the keys next time? We give you some tips.


Usual spot

Get in the habit of putting your keys in a standard place. This could be anything from a key safe in the hall to the fruit bowl. The place doesn't matter as long as it becomes a habit. This means you do not have to wonder again and again where you have left those keys.

Making keys 'bigger' makes them more visible and less likely to be overlooked. By making bigger we mainly mean that you bundle your keys in a bunch of keys. It is also possible to make your keys 'bigger' by attaching them to a keycord or a key ring.


Keep out of reach of children

Keys have a huge appeal for small children. Make sure that your children cannot reach the keys. In the first place, of course, to prevent them from putting the keys in their mouth and swallowing them. 


Technology as an aid

You may have heard of 'Find my Phone' before. With this option, you can easily find your lost or stolen phone. There is also something similar for lost keys, namely the Keyfinder. Combine the Keyfinder with your keys. Download the app that belongs to this on your smartphone or tablet and with the help of a bluetooth connection you will find your keys in no time.
