What you need

  • Key clip
  • Key ring, if needed

How to do it

  1. Attach the key to your belt loop with a clip.
  2. Or clip it to your backpack or handbag instead.

Variations

  • With the belt version, the key stays in your trouser pocket except when you lock or unlock. The downside: you have to wear the belt clip all the time.
