Isn't it time to be lord of the ring instead of hoard of the ring?

  • Carry only the keys you use every day — home, office, mailbox. If they look alike, use colored key identifiers (shown above; $6.00 for twenty, www.homedepot.com).


  • Keep car keys on a separate ring. Some auto mechanics warn that a heavy key chain can strain the ignition, eventually making it difficult to turn the key.


  • If you don't know what it unlocks, get rid of it.


  • Your key chain should be sturdy and easy to use. The new Handy Key Light from Lexon (shown above; $15; 888-445-3966 for store locations) allows you to add and remove keys without breaking a nail, and features a built-in light for unlocking doors in the dark.
