In the last blog post, we discussed the reasons behind why you should get a key cutting service to make a few spare keys for you. However, in this blog post, the team here at Key To Heel My Sole will discuss how you can save some money on spare keys and key replacements. Everyone loves to save a few bucks, so let’s quickly get onto it!
Use a Master Key
Using a master key will make sure that losing your keys does not become a full blown disaster. Master keys can open multiple locks, so you’ll save a few bucks as you won’t have to make numerous spare keys for different locks.
Keep an Original
If you keep an original in a safe place and make copies from that, your copies will always be as accurate as possible, rather than being copies of a worn or damaged key.
Claim it on Insurance
If your car keys get stolen or lost, try to get your insurance to cover you. After all, that’s what insurance is for- covering yourself if anything ever goes wrong.
Get a Key Locator
If you’re always losing your keys and having to pay for replacements and spares, perhaps investing in a key locator device will be a good idea for you. In the long run, you’ll save a lot of money because you won’t lose your key anymore.
Get Resistant
Sometimes, keys get left in people’s pockets without them noticing. This might be a problem if you’re involved in a lot of physical activity like playing sports or swimming. Your keys might get damaged in the process. And damaged keys mean you have to pay a lot of money to get them replaced. So, it is better to get surf-proof or shockproof keys.
