How many keys do you carry around with you?
Personally I dare not leave the house without my bunch of SIX keys.
The front door has two locks, so two keys. At the back there is a locked 'garden gate' and a lock on the back door, so two more. Then there's the garage door, and a private gate that allows me to get from the front to the back of the house without going through the middle.
On a separate fob is the final key, for Debbi; The Compact Royce. But that I only take with me when I'm driving; obviously!
Keys are an essential annoyance. There is nothing worse than losing them, or realising that you've left them at home.
I have on ONE occasion only, left the car's key inside the car, and locked myself out. So annoying!
I would prefer to have a 'word-of-mouth' system, where I just say "Open Sesame" and the magic would happen. But I may have to wait a while.
Meanwhile I have a set of bulky keys in my pocket every time I go out.

They do make fingerprint keys for your house and everything else. You just touch it and Viola, it opens before you. Even better than Open Sesame. There is one down side though. Recently my husband was programming his new cell phone. We discussed whether he would fingerprint it to open or not. I told him I didn't want to have to go down to the morgue to get his finger if he passed on before me. He reluctantly agreed to the swipe method. You know, we live in a very weird world.
A door key, mailbox key, and building access fob. I only take my car key, if I am taking the car out.
I have a bunch of keys. 2 for the house and the car key is on there too, along with various decorative attachments, one a bright pink so, hopefully, it sticks out when I'm searching for it.
I carry them everywhere . The mantra when I leave me a 'keys, money, glasses. If I've got all of those I'm good to go
It doesn't appeal to me somehow. I think I'll have to stick with the keys. The morgue puts me off!
I have too many, most of which I don't use on a daily basis. Maybe they need sorting.
I'm much the same. I want a doormat that says Keys, Money, Shopping list, Rubbish. That way I will be reminded of all I need to do. It's amazing how often I forget at least one of them!
On my keyring I have two keys for the front door locks (even though we never lock the second one), plus a key for the postbox at the bottom of the driveway ( the postie doesn't come all the way up to our front door). As I no longer drive, my car key is in a wooden box on the hall table.
I just have to make sure I don't forget to take my keys with me!
I take one key - our front door key but if I am taking Butch for a drive I take two keys. By the way your "Open Sesame!" dream is already a reality for some car owners.
I have one key on my keyring which also has the car fob on it. I have no need for the key to the other door to the house, or the shed key when I am out and about.
I do, however, keep other keys in the car - church key, vestry key, church noticeboard key, village hall keys, keys to village notice boards, key to village hall shed
It sounds as though you live at Fort Knox. I only have one key with me and it stays in my bag as the Toyota Spade has keyless entry. If by chance the key is left in the car one cannot lock it. Doug tried to lock it the other day but couldn't as my bag with my key was still in the car.
