1) Label your keys
Put tags on each key and label them. Choose labels you can use on both sides. The front side then can be used to inform on the purpose (e.g. Front Gate) of the key whereas you can put a telephone number on the back side in case someone finds a lost key.
2) Create duplicates
Make sure that you a keep a few duplicate keys. You can then also store some important keys at a neighbor’s or your parent’s place. Be very careful when hiding a key outside of your house. Professional thiefs are trained to find these place “no one would guess”.
3) Use colored keys
Keys sometimes look and feel similar. If you use different colors on the keys you save a few seconds each time you search for a key since your eye identifies a color much faster.
4) Keep spare keys in one place
Store all you spare keys in once central place at home or at work. Ideally you buy a key store in a stationery shop where you can properly hang them. This reduces the time to find the right key.
