Thunderbird Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 That's a bit odd, and where is the spare, in a locket somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxiDriver Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 You might know where it is, Doesn't mean you have access to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cake444 Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I wouldn’t know where the spare was. I suppose it’s not a bad idea but it just seems odd. He worries a lot about break-ins etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure to be honest, I was just curious as it goes against 'hiding' your key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lxtav Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Probably overkill but my key is in a cheap digital safe that sits on top of the cabinet that only i know the combination for. Various reasons for this a very clever 4 year old son who can find anything hidden in the house and its somewhere else to put things you dont want the wife to find (obviously the expensive presents for her). Safe is just as secure as the cabinet so If they can get into one they can get into the other. Edited December 20, 2011 by lxtav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect I'll get one eventually myself. I suppose you just have to make sure it really secure as any thief with s brain will know your main keys are in there.

Imperfection Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Is he trying to look like a rapper? The Beastie boys started that off with VW badges in the 80's so perhaps this chap is trying to set a new trend,but a British version?

dan-250 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I may get my keys chromed, and wear them aswell. I be gangsta !!! May wear a merc badge an try pimping at the same time. In all honesty it's not a bad idea. Although mine are locked in a safe upstairs, best place otherwise I'll loose them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it if some one breaks in what are they after? Money jewellery easy to sell and fence items or something specific they know you have. Car keys, shop/bar takings, art etc IF they want sporting guns they'll do an RFD. Your cheap digital safe may frustrate them or intrigue them into ripping it off the wall to open later...

lxtav Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Your average thief doesn't want guns for several reasons, how do you get rid of them as your average housebreaker doesn't have the contacts to get rid of it. If your caught with an unlicensed gun its a min 5 years in jail which is a lot more than what they would get for braking in and as said before they want easy to fence items or cash. Also the places most people hide keys, jewllery etc are the first places the thiefs look so even if you think your key is well hidden they will most probably find it very quickly.

Safe is just as secure as the cabinet so If they can get into one they can get into the other. Snap, I have a little digital safe as well for exactly that reason ... I have little nephews staying over once in a while who are obsessed with Call Of Duty. They know I have a shotgun, so dont want any chance at all of them getting a hold of the gun or ammo.

Livefast123 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I keep my cabinet and ammo safe keys hidden in 2 of those Mastersafe key safe things that are installed in a very tricky place to get to. No room for any tools to gemmy them away and a handy key pad to stop my 3 year old daughter going Rambo with them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J@mes Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I cannot believe people are openly discussing this subject on a public forum. why? No-one has given away their hiding places or codes for their safes, have they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northeastshooter Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 i keep mine on my have everything on 1 key chain ok sounds a bit daft but i have 4 keys on there for my mams 11 for work 5 for my house then 2 for my safe plus car keys lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've already told my family that should anything ever happen to me they will eventually find the spare set of keys in the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
