Simple Tricks for Remembering Your Keys

Did you know that one of the most common phrases people say daily is “Where are my keys?!” No matter how good our memories are, sometimes we just forget our keys. But don’t fret—when this happens, Nearby Locksmiths are here for you!

To help you never forget your keys again, here is a list of simple tricks:

  1. Give Them a Home Usually, we try to keep our keys in the same spot, but sometimes after a long day of work, we throw them down, and they magically disappear. Consider creating a designated spot near your front door for your keys, such as a hook or dish that doesn’t get moved. The first thing you should always do when you come home is put your keys in that spot. This way, they will always be easy to find.
  2. Bright and Flashy If you are the type of person who can never find their keys, the solution can be as simple as adding a bright and flashy keyring or lanyard. This way, they will stand out among any clutter and be easier to locate.
  3. Create a New Habit Did you know that it only takes three weeks to create a new habit? Training your brain to remember your keys is much easier than training your brain to exercise every day. Create a routine that includes turning off all the lights, grabbing your wallet and keys, and you’re ready to take on the day! Another good tip is to always stop and think before you place your keys down. This way, you will consider if it is a good place to leave your keys or not.
  4. Reminder Note A simple note placed by your front door saying, “Don’t forget your keys!” can go a long way. It will be the last thing you see when leaving your house and will force you to double-check that you have your keys on you.
  5. Use Technology Consider using technology to help you remember your keys. Attach a Bluetooth tracker to your keyring, which can connect to your smartphone. If you misplace your keys, you can use the app to locate them quickly.
  6. Set a Daily Reminder Set a daily alarm or reminder on your phone that goes off at a time you usually leave the house. The reminder can be a simple message like “Keys, wallet, phone,” ensuring you have everything you need before you walk out the door.

Although these methods are very effective, chances are you may still forget your keys and need a locksmith.
