Never lose your keys again with a key safe box

If you frequently find yourself looking all over the place for your house keys or car key, then a key box is just what you need. 

Long gone are the days when we could place a spare key under the door mat or a flower pot. Sure, you can always keep a spare house key in your car in case you lose your house keys while you’re out and about, but if you’re someone who tends to always misplace keys while inside, you’ll appreciate having extra copies within easy reach.

How do I know if I need a key safe box?

Are you the type of person who throws their keys on a random wall shelf, and your keys end up buried through other miscellaneous items like mail, receipts, tickets, sunglasses, and other random objects?

Are you a woman who constantly changes purses and never knows which one holds the house key? Or are your kids the ones who constantly misplace or lose their keys? You used to have a bowl holding your keys but your family is too big for that now? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, then you need a key box holder. 

Of course, there are many other reasons why you should buy a secure key safe to keep at home or at your workplace. Maybe there are multiple users that need keys. If you have a large house with a lot of rooms and doors that lock with a key, then you’ll probably need a key box holder to keep your home, gate, basement, cellar key, and other keys in one place. The more keys you have and use, the more you'll need a key storage solution.

Moreover, it can be a great gift idea for someone who often misplaces their keys or for someone who has a big family or a big house.

Where should I place my key box?

If you keep things in a designated spot, it’s less likely to lose them because you’ll naturally break the habit of throwing your keys in all the wrong places. It’s also true that it might take a few days or a few weeks, but you’ll ultimately get used to this new habit. Ideally, the designated spot for your key safe should be somewhere near your front door.

Of course, you can also place a key safe in your home office or even the living room. You can basically place it anywhere you see fit, as long as it’s practical for you and all the people using it. However, where you shouldn’t place key safes is near a window. That could tempt burglars and housebreakers. 

Key safe box ideas

So you’ve decided that you want to buy a key safe but you don’t know what model you should pick? Here are some key safe ideas to keep in mind: 

Steel key box with numbered hooks

Numbered key hooks are great if you have keys that look similar or you have too many keys, and it’s hard to remember which one's which. At vidaXL, we have a variety of key storage options with more or fewer hooks, so choose according to how many keys you need to store. Before buying a key cabinet, check the product specifications. Our key safes come in a wide range of dimensions.

Stainless steel key board

If you’re looking for a more trendy key storage solution, try a key board with a sweeping wave design. For a combination of style and functionality, a key holder with a memo board and a little tray to keep all your small items organised will do the job. 

Key storage box with magnetic board

This is a practical option if you like to leave written notes. It will come in handy when trying to set the new habit of placing your keys in the box. All you have to do is leave a reminder on the board. The key box comes with a black pen, a board wiper, and six magnets. You can also stick notes or photos on the magnetic board.
