rodp Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Right gents, so I've got this new gun safe installed (for a while now) and expect a visit from the main man regarding my SGC. Thing is, this safe's got the biggest keys I've ever seen so it begs the question where do I HAVE to keep the keys and where's best to keep them. If I keep them on my key ring they will pull the steering column off, if I put them in my pocket they'll pull my strides down and if I hide them somewhere that will not comply with the law (will it?) Any ideas appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattleFieldRelics Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I keep them on my person at all times as I am the only one who is authorised to have access. Apart from the spare set.......... I keep them in a safe place on top of the gun cabinet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J@mes Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Hiding them is fine, it was suggested that I hid the two keeps in separate locations on my last FEO visit but not told to. As to where, well.....somewhere YOU think they will be well hidden and no-one will guess they are there/ very unlikely to stumble across them!

Imperfection Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I keep one set on my normal (large) bunch of keys and other sets (i have multiple cabinets) are hidden in house.Atleast this way i know where they always are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob13 Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Since my cabinet has two locks, one key i keep on my car keys the other in the house where it is out the way but easily used. This way the two keys, while i am out are not together. The spare set for both are in different places, again not together. That way if a key is found (which will be hard) only one lock can be opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryantidgwell Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 any one see britains got talent ? the man who swallows stuff i do the same with my keys ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodp Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Thanks for all the fine suggestions, some of which I may not use So it's OK to hide them then(?) or do I not tell the FEO they are hidden. Officially, am I supposed to keep them on my person at all times or can I hide them? I'll pass on the swallowing them bit, if actually getting them down wasn't painful enough getting them out again would be excruciating (probably remove piles on the way out though so if anyone suffers with them give it some thought) Thanks for the info so far.

kyska Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 My FEO asked where my keys are and I said in my pocket, then he asked where the spares are, I told him hidden, then asked me 'where?'..I said 'I'm not telling you'...he grunted and carried on writing.

covlocks Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I keep my spare keys under the Rotties food bowl - a prize for him (or her) that gets them.......... The missus keeps her set down her knickers - its safer to try and nick the ones from under the dogs food bowl ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like that- It would however be unwise to disclose the location of Gun safe keys - even to the FEO ( mine are under a plant pot by the door lol) Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevethevanman Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Some one breaking in and going on keys will put 2 and 2 together and see that they are for something big I rexkon, so I dont keep mine on rings, ther in a filing cabinet with tons of car books strewn all over it But there is alot of my shooting stuff in there, staple guns and loads of other stuff, and aobut 5 other sets of keys ..so would be very confusing for a burglar indeed!

The correct answer to where they are hidden is "they are in a safe place that nobody else knows of, where they are unlikely to be discovered by accident or by a casual searcher" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
