A Sick Old Man Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I hide my spare keys under the attic carpet, I would not try and angle grind open a safe as you will trash it in the process. Just hide a set in a well out of the way place, much easier in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triscrx Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I have a seperate keysafe in the basement next to my ammo safe. Keysafe key is on my housekeys, if i lost my house keys i could angle grind the keysafe to get the gunsafe key. Also have a spare at my mums house. basement and house both alarmed by professionally installed alarm. Best thing to do in my opinion is get a keysafe & hide the keysafe key in the loft/basement out of sight and nowhere obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Master Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I keep a set on me and my Dad keeps a set on him. If there not on us we each have secret locations where we keep them. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayward Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) don't have that problem me and the other 1/2 both have a license and each have all guns on all tickets !!! Now my set i keep safe in a well hidden spot if you found them in my house you would be lucky! I totally rebuilt this house and know every inch of it AND there not likely to be found even if you where looking for them , It would take less time to open the safe with a spoon ... And there with my cash stash so even the other 1/2 has no idea where they are i Hope Edited March 5, 2008 by jayward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyb Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Mine are with a good friend of mine, who himself is an SGC & FAC holder He has NO access to the property, but I know that if I lost my keys, or if something was to happen to me - all would be ok.

Hunter Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) Whoever has access to your safe keys must be both licensed and have the guns declared on their license. what's wrong with keeping the spare keys with the other key? Lose one and you will have to change the safe locks anyway. Keep them all together. You don't own an angle grinder? Either thats a wind up, or you are the most dopey person I have met Guys I would like to remind you all its really not a good idea to talk about these things on this forum. A number of posts I have read have really suprised me NO ONE but the persons licensed to use and handle the firearms should have access to the guns or keys. (and certain types of ammunition). A while ago the wife of an FAC holder was arrested for knowing where the husbands keys were kept. So if you have given them to a friend or family member, dont write about it on a public forum. Im not a safety nazi, just making sure some of you are aware of the legalities involved with the safe keeping of your firearms, and being a public forum, we must show we are taking responsibility for our firearms. Wherever your keys may be, thats for you to know and no one else. Should something happen to you, the police may open that safe with or without keys to gain access to the firearms anyway.

pin Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Such a daft topic (sorry DQ). All the best answers are not printable I keep mine safe, since they never leave the house its actually very hard to loose them. The most secure place for them is in the cabinet with the guns, but that just doesn't seem very clever :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ME Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 (edited) I keep my spare key in a small safe. I keep the key to that safe in petty cash tin. I keep the key to that petty cash tin in a locked drawer at my office. I keep the key to that drawer on the collar of my grumpy old Parson Jack Russell - Ollie. The reason Ollie is grumpy is that for ultimate security I keep him locked in my shed at all times. <joke> The key to that shed is in my car. The key to that car is in a safety deposit box in Monaco. The key to that safety deposit box is in a keycoded oxygen free safe in a Secret Bunker in Essex. I have had the keycode to that safe tattooed on my Hampton in one inch per digit numbers...... .......afterall a TWELVE number code isnt easy to remember :yp: EDIT: I am looking for a "FLUFFER" for the colder days Edited March 5, 2008 by LV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
