Even minor everyday troubles can unsettle you for a long time. A slammed interior door is a small problem, but if there are children inside the room or there is something that is needed right now, then the lock must be opened immediately. It is important not to rush; knocking out the canvas or breaking the lock is a last resort. You can return the mechanism to the “open” position using available means.

To successfully open a door, you will need available tools that are found in every home. In order to open a lock of a simple configuration, you may need:

• a plastic card;
• knitting needle;
• a large sheet of paper (for example, newspaper);
• knife or nail file;
• thin screwdriver;
• pliers.

And what kind of improvised object to use, you will have to decide on your own.

Based on blockbusters

Figure 1. The principle of opening an interior door using a card or a thin knife.

Typically, the lock on an interior door is not particularly durable or has a complicated mechanism. Often the problem is the involuntary rotation of the mechanism on the inside of the blade. The lock tongue on the interior door is soft and does not resist intervention at all. To open the lock, just insert a plastic card or a thin knife between the door leaf and the door jamb and push the tongue (Fig. 1). After such an impact, the mechanism will move slightly. All that remains is to turn the handle and calmly enter the room.

If the interior door has a lock of a more complex configuration and after slamming the key remains in the hole on the inside, it will be even easier to solve the problem. It is enough to remember the actions of the clever heroes of spy films and repeat them.

Figure 2. Use a thin knitting needle or file to find the moving part of the lock and press on it.

A newspaper or sheet of paper must be carefully pushed under the door at the level of the lock so that there is a corner left outside by which it can be removed. After this, use a thin object, such as a knitting needle, to push out the key. You should act without haste, carefully so that the key does not bounce off the floor and roll into the far corner. After the mission is completed, you can pull the paper and remove the saving part of the lock. That's it, the door can be opened from the outside.

Don't forget about the common lock with a hole from which it is impossible to push the key out. In this case, knitting needles or a thin and long file will come to the rescue. The object at hand must be inserted into the hole and rotated, moved up and down, listening to the sounds. Goal: detect the moving part of the lock and press on it. To open a lock on an interior door this way will take more time (Fig. 2).

Both methods can be used on doors of simple design.

But in the future, it is better to take care of having a spare key or install a lock that can be opened from the outside without much effort.

Other lock configurations

Figure 3. There is a small hole on the outside of the lining; to open the lock, you need to insert a knitting needle or nail into it.

But not every door can be opened using such techniques. If a different type of lock is installed, you may need to use a little more force.

One of the common types of locks for interior doors is a key lock (Fig. 3). It is locked by pressing a button on the inside.

The mechanism fixes the handle, preventing it from turning. But the insidiousness of such a locking mechanism is that it can go into the “locked” position from a sharp clap.

Most manufacturers of locks of this type took care of the consumer and equipped the design with a safety system. Carefully inspect the outside of the trim. There should be a small hole on it; insert a knitting needle, nail or other thin object into it and press lightly. This action will return the key to the “open” position - the problem will be solved.

Figure 4. A screwdriver is required to open the latch lock.

If the interior door is equipped with a lock with a latch, opening it will also be easy (Fig. 4). It is necessary to tighten the bolts using a screwdriver and remove the outer cover. If the tools are left in a locked room, you can use a teaspoon, a nail file or any flat object, usually such bolts are not tightened too tightly. Once the contents of the lock are exposed, it must be carefully inspected. A small bump is part of the locking mechanism and you need to press it using available means, a pencil or a knitting needle will do. Simultaneously with pressing, you need to turn the handle and access to the room will be gained. Opening a lock of this type is not difficult, the main thing is to get your bearings and have everything you need at hand.

If none of the proposed methods work and the room door is still locked, you will have to completely dismantle the lock. To do this, you need to carefully remove the cover, unscrew all the fixing bolts and remove the core. The locking mechanism removed in this way can be repaired or replaced with a new one, but the main thing is that you don’t have to knock out the blade.

Of course, it is better not to encounter such problems and always have access to all rooms. But it’s better to know in advance how to open the lock than to get nervous in a moment of force majeure and ruin your own property in a hurry.

Did the door slam? When such a problem arises, not many are ready for it. This can lead to negative consequences and make anyone nervous. Knocking out the box is not an option. Yes, and sometimes it is impossible to call specialists, but you need to act urgently. In this situation, there is a way out, and without financial loss or damage. Today the Homius editors have prepared a detailed overview of how to open a lock without a key, both entrance and . Bookmark our instructions and use them in any unforeseen situation.

If the door slams, the main thing is not to panic, but to calmly find the right solution

When an interior door closes, many people immediately think of removing it from its hinges. This option is suitable if you are inside the room, if you have access to the fittings. It is enough to remove the decorative plug installed on the hinges and remove the pin. The canvas is easily removed from the opening.

But what to do if children are locked in the room, and not every girl will solve this problem. In this case, it is important to determine which components were used. The fact is that manufacturers install simple locks on the interior panels, which our recommendations will help you open.

When closing the latch from the inside

Most often, locks on interior doors are equipped with a key on the inside. It often snaps into place due to a strong tug on the handle. If you have such trouble, look at the castle from the outside. It has a small hole at the bottom. You need to insert a thin knitting needle into it all the way and press the handle. This will push the button outwards and open the lock.

A thin rod is always included with the lock.

How to open the lock mechanism

The situation is more complicated if the interior door has a locking mechanism with a key. It can be opened as follows.

1. Pull the handle several times. If the mechanism is loose, the bolt will bounce off on its own.
2. Can be opened with a thin object. It needs to be inserted into the well and, slowly turning, move the pins away.

The front door slammed: how to open the lock without a key

Suvaldny

This type of lock is also often installed on entrance doors; it is one of the most reliable locking devices.

Device

Inside the lock there is a set of plates, each of which has a different shape and affects the locking device. The levers have slots through which the main part of the lock moves - a pin attached to the central plate. It is he who, when turning, builds the desired combination of plates; while turning, the key moves them in a certain sequence, thereby opening the door.

Manufacturers produce lever locks with several degrees of protection and different numbers of plates. The more there are, the more difficult it is to open the locking device. The products are very resistant to mechanical stress, so there is no need to resort to additional efforts; it is better to open the lock using minor manipulations.

Methods

Let's look at the most effective options for opening a lever lock.

1 way

You can open it with the help of master keys and the correct selection of the code.

1. Insert a metal pick into the hole and rest it against the main lever. This will create tension.
2. Using the second master key, gradually select the required position of the remaining plates.
3. When the required position is found, the pin will begin to move.

2 way

The second option is to remove the main pin. Thanks to such actions, it will be possible to freely move the main lever. To do this you will need a drill, a metal drill and a paper clip. A hook or strong wire will also work.

The procedure is as follows.

1. Drill a hole at the reference point.
2. Insert the hook into the hole and turn it slightly.
3. All plates will move easily and the lock will open.

You can see the process of drilling out a security lock in more detail in the video:

If the lock is equipped with anti-burglary protection, all the above methods of opening the mechanism will not help, it is better to contact a specialist

Rack and pinion

It is not difficult to open a rack and pinion lock without a key.

Device

The mechanism consists of only four elements:

• housing, most often galvanized;
• slats (crossbar) - a metal rod with grooves cut in a certain sequence, it performs a locking function;
• springs, it pushes the rail while the locking mechanism is locked;
• key - rod, it can be flat or with a rectangular cross-section.

Methods

It is not difficult to open the rack and pinion mechanism without a key; we will consider all gentle options.

1 way

For the first option, you will need 2 thin flat-head screwdrivers; they must enter the keyhole at the same time.

1. First, insert the first screwdriver inside, place it on the notch of the rail and move it to the side.
2. Insert a second screwdriver into the hole and fix the position of the rack.
3. Repeat the steps until the mechanism is open.

2 way

For the second option we will need a wedge key. This is a wedge made of soft wood. Its parameter must match the dimensions of the keyhole.

1. The wedges need to be driven into the well and removed.
2. There will be marks on the surface.
3. All that remains is to trim the layout and open the doors for them.

3 way

If there is a gap between the frame and the door leaf, you can insert a crowbar into it and press it until it stops. Thanks to such manipulations, a small distance is formed into which you need to insert a flat-head screwdriver and push the bolts inside the mechanism.

Mounted

Wall-mounted models are most often used for basements or utility rooms. They do not have good strength, so opening them is quite easy.

Device

Depending on the type of device, the following types of padlocks are distinguished.

Illustration	Lock type	Description
	Open	Standard lock with curved shackle.
	Mushroom	The design differs from the open bow; it is almost completely hidden inside.
	Semi-closed	In this model, instead of a bow, a pin is used, partially hidden inside the structure.
	Closed	The locking part is completely hidden inside the housing.

In addition, it is important to know which mechanism is installed inside the case; the option of opening it without a key will depend on this. The following types of devices are distinguished:

• level;
• cylinder;
• disk;
• screw;
• code

Methods

In order to open a regular padlock with a protruding shackle, you can use a crowbar, or simply cut it down. For other models, one of the following methods is suitable.

1 way

Opening option using a tin can.

1. Cut a small section from a tin can.
2. Bend it at one edge.
3. Insert the record with the straight side into the gap between the body and the bow.
4. Push the plate inside using a screwdriver.
5. The latch will open.

2 way

You can open a padlock using a nail puller and.

1. Screw a self-tapping screw into the mechanism cylinder.
2. Hook the self-tapping screw with a nail puller.
3. Pull out the lock cylinder.

The key in the lock is broken: what to do?

In this situation, you can try to pull out the fragment. The procedure is as follows.

1. Pour WD-40 into the lock cylinder; machine oil will also help.
2. After a quarter of an hour, you can begin to remove the fragment.
3. If there is a tail left outside, you need to hook it with pliers and pull it out by swinging from side to side.

Conclusion

Even if you slammed the door or lost your keys, this is not a reason to panic. There are no mechanisms that cannot be opened; it is important to make the right decision. And for the future: make several duplicates and give them to your loved ones for safekeeping.

And finally, we suggest watching a very useful video with options for opening different locks.

If the apartment has an interior door equipped with a lock with a latch, then residents may find themselves in a situation where the interior door accidentally slams shut. If the key to the door is on the other side of the door from the apartment resident, then a difficult task arises: to open a closed door without a key.

Ways to open an interior door

Depending on the type of door, the latch-lock installed on it and the specific situation, the problem can be solved in several ways:

• Push the door latch back into the lock body;
• Select a key or a tool that replaces it;
• Carefully remove the door from its hinges;
• Roughly open the door, damaging the fastenings or lock;
• Call a locksmith specialist.

How to open an interior door with a latch

Let's consider the option with a latch. The most important thing is that there is a visible gap between the door leaf and the frame. This will allow you to access the latch. Our task is to release this latch.
If the door latch is facing you with the “straight side”, the difficulties are somewhat greater. But this does not mean that you cannot open the door.

Attention! To avoid problems with opening the door, you need to take care of backup options in advance!

The most popular method in this case is to press the latch with a sharp object, such as a knife. To do this, use the tip of the knife to rest against the edge of the latch (as far as possible) and move it towards the door leaf. The moment the tongue comes out of the hook with the door frame, our interior door will open.

If the latch is facing you with an oblique side, then it is easier to open the door. This can be done with a flat and thin, but quite durable object. Such items could be:

• Plastic card;
• Kitchen or pocket knife with a durable blade;
• A piece of tinplate folded in half and other thin, durable objects.

We just need to press the latch, while we can swing the door. This should help.
If you couldn’t open the latch, and the lock is quite simple, like Soviet cabinet locks, then you can try to make a temporary master key.

Copper wire with a cross-section of at least 12 square meters is suitable for this. mm so that it does not bend in the lock mechanism. A steel nail with a smaller cross-section will also work, but it will be more difficult for you to bend the steel into the shape of a key.

Now take your piece of copper wire, secure it in a vice, and bend the other part perpendicularly by about 6-8 mm. Make cuts on the master key with a fine-grain file or a needle file if you remember the shape of the key. Next, insert the resulting “key” into the hole and try to open the door, slightly shaking the “key” from side to side.

If you are unable to turn the master key, pull it out and make cuts in those places where you see the most severe abrasions. Then try again. To better see where to do additional file processing, the key blank is lubricated with thick oil or wax before testing it in the keyhole.

Remove the door from its hinges

If the option of making a key also did not help, you can proceed to another action - removing the door from its hinges.

There are different types of door hinges, we will roughly divide them into two main ones:

1. Detachable;
2. One-piece.

In the first case, you need to find out whether the hinge has a retractable pin or not. If the hinge has a retractable pin, then it is enough to remove the protective caps from the hinges and carefully knock out the pin with a hammer, placing a thick nail, dowel or screwdriver against it. Do the same with the second hinge, holding the door. It's better to do this with an assistant.

If the detachable hinge has a pin that is not retractable, then you need to take a crowbar or a nail puller, push it with a lever under the door closer to the hinges and lift the door, holding it from above, until it comes off the hinges. Before this operation, the loops must be lubricated with liquid mineral oil by dripping it from a syringe into the loop slit where the loop cards touch.

In the second case (with one-piece hinges), you need to unscrew the screws securing one of the hinge cards to the door or opening.

Open a damaged interior door

Let's consider more radical methods of opening a damaged door if the previous methods did not help:

• Cut out the lock;
• Cut or tear out loops.

Unscrew all the external screws on the lock, remove the lock cover, then try to remove the “cylinder” - the part of the door lock that locks it. If it doesn’t work or the lock is of a different type, you can try to drill it out or break it out of the door using a hammer, chisel or chisel.

If the door is wooden, and it is not possible to remove it from the hinges using the methods described above due to the design of these hinges, then you can cut the hinges with a jigsaw or a thin hacksaw blade, having previously drilled a couple of holes for it with a drill with a thick drill bit. It is also advisable to carry out this operation with an assistant so that he holds the door.

If you have a door installed like an office partition - made of PVC and a sandwich panel inserted instead of glass, then you can remove the plastic beads around the perimeter and pull out the sandwich panel, which usually occupies most of the door area, then return everything to its place. If you cannot remove the beads, the sandwich panel is quite fragile and can easily be broken with a hammer. Then it can be replaced with a new panel without changing the entire door.

Call a specialist

If the door is steel, and the lock is of high quality and the hinges are strong enough and difficult to remove, then it is better to call a specialist. Now there are many advertisements in advertising newspapers and on the Internet containing the following content: “Opening locks...”, etc. It is better to choose trusted companies from them, for example, on the recommendation of friends, or well-known ones that have been on the market for a long time.

An excellent option would be to call rescuers. First of all, everything will go quickly. This is especially important if there are small children behind a closed door or household appliances are running. Secondly, when calling rescuers, you should not think about recommendations.

Unfortunately, rescuers do not always do everything with pinpoint precision and accuracy. This is perhaps the only negative.

Safety for the future

In order to avoid incidents with a closed door in the future, you need to follow a number of rules.

First, if the latch lock has a safety lock, it is best to use it at all times.

Secondly, you must have two sets of keys, and one of them must always be in the room with the door, and the other in the apartment outside the room. It is also advisable that one of your relatives or neighbors have another key if you trust them.

Thirdly, you just need to be attentive.

Content

If a key or locking device is lost or broken, opening the lock may be the only way to enter or exit the premises. What to do if you don’t have time to call a foreman or mechanic from the housing and communal services? Arm yourself with available tools (a paper clip, an awl, a stationery knife) and try to open the door yourself.

How to open an interior door without a key

The design of locking devices in interior blocks is generally simple. Unlike entrance doors, such doors are not difficult to open. What tools and aids are used for this:

• flat screwdriver and pliers;
• a plastic card;
• knitting needle, awl, hairpin or paper clip;
• a sheet of thick paper;
• nail file, scissors or knife.

Unlock

Most locks in interior units have a key that, when pressed from the inside, locks the mechanism. Often the device is activated without human intervention. For example, when a door slams strongly, the door leaf hits the wall, or the structure breaks. The security system helps fix the problem. How to open a locked interior door without a key:

1. Inspect the outside of the handle. There is a small hole on the side opposite the latch.
2. Select a tool or device that will fit into the gap (hairpin, straightened paper clip, nail).
3. Insert the selected item into the hole, unlock the lock with a light press.
4. Open the door.

If the mechanism breaks down

To open a locked door if the handle breaks, you will need a flat object (plastic card, utility knife, ruler). What to do if the mechanism is broken, jammed or jammed:

1. Insert a flat object (for example, a plastic card) into the gap between the door leaf and the latch at the level of the latch.
2. Tilt so that the far side of the tool touches the beveled part of the tongue.
3. Apply gentle pressure to the tool you are using while tilting the handle downwards.
4. Pull back the tongue, pull the sash, open the door.

If the key is in the hole on the back side

You can open a slammed interior door with the key remaining inside the locked room in the following way:

1. Slide a sheet of paper between the floor and the door leaf so that a small “tail” remains outside.
2. Insert an unbent paper clip, hairpin, bobby pin or knitting needle into the keyhole. Slowly squeeze out the key.
3. When you hear the sound of falling, carefully remove the paper from under the door.
4. Use the key to unlock the lock from the outside.

If the locked door frame has a threshold, you will not be able to remove the key using paper. To get into the room, you will have to pick the lock. How to disassemble a simple mortise device with a handle:

1. Using a tool with a flat end (nail file, stationery knife), pry and remove the trim.
2. Use a flat-head screwdriver to secure the stopper, and use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the screws that connect the internal and external parts of the structure.
3. Remove the handle, take out the cylinder. Open the door.

How to open a lock without a key on the front door

Locks with a complex device and several levels of protection are installed on metal entrance doors for apartments and houses.

You can only try to open a Chinese-made mechanism with master keys. High-quality locks will have to be unlocked with the help of a specialist or broken into, which can lead to damage to the device and deformation of the door leaf. The process will depend on the type of locking mechanism.

Cylinder

If the key to the cylinder lock is lost and it is impossible to make a duplicate, you will have to master the role of a professional burglar and unlock the door using special master keys. They can be bought at a hardware store or made from paper clips and hairpins. How to open a door lock with a cylinder mechanism:

1. Take 2 paper clips or hairpins. Bend one at a right angle, it will serve as a tensioner, the second - in the form of a hook.
2. Insert the tensioner into the upper part of the mechanism, turn it towards the opening of the lock, creating tension.
3. Insert the second paperclip, hook the first pin, and give it the opening position. The fact that the pin has taken the desired position will be indicated by a click and rotation of the cylinder.
4. Repeat the manipulations with the remaining pins.

If the master keys do not help, the lock will have to be picked. How to do it:

1. Insert a flathead screwdriver deep into the cylinder. Try to turn it using force. If it works, remove the tool along with the mechanism and open the door.
2. If that doesn’t work, take a drill and a metal drill bit (4–5 mm). Drill through the cylinder and remove the mechanism.

Suvaldny

This lock consists of several plates with different notches and grooves. The complexity and safety class of the device depend on their number. To break the locking mechanism, you need to move the plates. How to open an iron door without a key with a lever lock:

1. Make a roll by bending the tip of a thin screwdriver.
2. Make a master key by crocheting and sharpening the tip of the knitting needle.
3. Insert both improvised master keys into the lock mechanism.
4. Push the roll all the way, turn it, creating tension. Move the hook, shifting each plate in turn and at the same time turning the roll. When you manage to move all the levers, the door will open.

If the master keys do not help, hack the device by damaging the secret support point:

1. Drill a hole at the location where the shank is attached.
2. Insert a hook made from a paper clip or stiff wire.
3. Turn the bolts, open the door.

Rack and pinion

You can only break a rack lock with a crowbar, damaging not only the mechanism, but also the door frame or leaf. How to try to open the device without a key:

1. Select 2 thin screwdrivers that can simultaneously enter the keyhole.
2. Insert 1 tool into the hole, “catch” the notch of the bolt with it and move it to the side. Insert a second screwdriver and secure the position of the valve.
3. Repeat the manipulations, moving all the crossbars one by one until the door opens.

The second way to break into a rack and pinion lock:

1. Drive a wooden wedge made of soft wood (spruce, pine, cedar) into the keyhole.
2. Pull it out and trim the resulting notches a little.
3. Unlock the closed door with the wedge key you received.

Mounted

This type of lock is opened using a pin, paper clip, or stiff wire. Sequencing:

1. Bend the edge of the available device into the letter G. Insert it into the upper part of the well, trying to get into the latch.
2. Rotate the master key until the locking element is released and the bracket is released.

If you can’t open the lock without a key, you can break it in one of two ways:

1. Insert 2 open-end wrenches into the bracket so that each of them grips one shackle and their side ribs touch. Pull the free edges of the tools together until the bracket breaks.
2. Screw the self-tapping screw into the cylinder and then pull it out along with the mechanism using a nail puller.

French

This type of mechanism cannot be opened without a key and the help of a specialist. You can only break a French lock on your own, thereby ruining the door leaf. This is done in the old fashioned way:

1. Insert a crowbar or a strong screwdriver into the gap next to the lock.
2. Use the device as a lever: press until the door leaf is deformed and the lock latch is disconnected.

If the key is broken in the lock

Often the reason for opening the front door is a broken key. In this case, you need to remove the fragment from the larva.

If a fragment is sticking out of the hole, try to grab it with pliers or tweezers, and then pull it out, swinging it from side to side.

If the key piece does not look out, remove it in one of the following ways:

1. Use the serrated side to pick up the saw blade from the jigsaw and remove it from the locking device.
2. Hook with a straightened fishhook, pin, or rounded thin wire, and then carefully pull out.
3. Hook the sharp ends of two thin awls, and, swinging, slowly remove it from the lock.

How to open a door without a key to a room or apartment

Have you ever lost your keys? At least once in our lives, each of us was faced with a situation where it was impossible to open a lock. , garage, apartment, office, safe - it doesn’t matter what kind of lock, the important thing is that you stand in front of it and understand that you are powerless.

We have prepared tips for you in case you find yourself in such an awkward and terribly unpleasant situation.

What not to do?

First of all, the person standing in front of the door tries to pull the handle in the hope that a miracle will happen. However, a miracle does not happen; the door does not budge.

If you have a successful catch, you will certainly put this object in the lock and try to do something with it. However, in 99.9% of cases this scheme does not work. In the best case, the item will be rescued by you on your own, and the lock will remain intact. At worst, the lock will become faulty, or the object will remain in it.

The second situation is less favorable, since even experienced security guards will have to work hard to open the door and leave the lock in proper condition.

Do not try to open the lock using improvised means!

Next, as a rule, most citizens move on to heavy artillery, that is, they find a hammer, an ax and other devices that may possibly help open the door. It seems that if you chop around the lock, trim something, or somehow knock with a hammer, the lock will open. But it's not that simple.

Do not damage the door leaf in the hope that the lock can be removed or torn out, thereby opening it.

It doesn’t matter at all what kind of lock you try to open with improvised objects, knives and axes. The result will be the same - you will not open the lock. Today, absolutely all locks: be it a door, a car or a safe, have mechanisms that protect, to one degree or another, from being opened by such methods.

What do we have to do?

The most correct decision in this situation would be to call competent specialists who will open the lock. While you are waiting for those same specialists, do not try to do anything yourself.

It's better not to touch the locks at all. If you don't touch the lock, it will be much easier for a specialist to open it. This will take just a few minutes. As a result, the door will be intact and the lock will not be damaged.

Always call a locksmith!

By the way, if we talk about opening locks, a whole series of questions also arise here: starting from how much such a pleasure will cost, ending with where to call in the first place.

Is it worth calling the Ministry of Emergency Situations?

The first thing that comes up is the idea of ​​contacting the Ministry of Emergency Situations, because it is so simple: we call the number you have memorized, tell us your problem, and then the employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations rush to you, arrive at your place in a matter of minutes, open the lock for free, and say a lot of warm words goodbye.

However, in reality everything turns out differently. The Ministry of Emergency Situations will come to you quickly only if something out of the ordinary is happening behind a closed door and there is a threat to life (a small child was left behind the door, someone became ill, there was a leak in the apartment, and so on).

If you call the Ministry of Emergency Situations and say that your keys, for example, are lost and will they come to open your door, then your call will either not be accepted, or they will accept it, but will put it in a queue. There will always be those in front of you who need to remove a kitten from a tree, remove a child’s head from a pan, and so on.

In addition, a call without a threat to life is paid. You will not only have to wait several hours, but also pay.

Remember: a call to the Ministry of Emergency Situations without a threat to life will be accepted on a paid basis!

However, the Ministry of Emergency Situations can often redirect you to private specialists for opening locks. This is completely normal. If you ask the control room for contact information, they will certainly give you one.

Next, you just need to call the specialists, who will come to you as soon as possible and open the locks in a couple of minutes. Of course, this service will not be free, but you are guaranteed to get to your garage, apartment or office.

The main thing is that in 90% of cases the castle will remain completely intact. All you have to do is either make new keys or grab a spare set you have lying around in your nightstand.

In order to never find yourself in such a situation, make it a rule to carry a spare pair of keys with you. Use one pair as usual, and put the second at the very bottom of the bag you carry every day. You will always remember that happy moment when such a brilliant idea dawned on you.
