Master Key

I think most of you will probably know what a master key is but just in case, it is a key able to operate a set of several locks. They are quite functional and save a lot of time for those who use them. For instance, there are hotels with hundreds of rooms and every room has to be cleaned. People in charge of cleaning need to access several rooms and imagine having to look for the particular key to the 50 rooms they are supposed to clean! It would take hours finding the right key in a huge pile like this!


Master keys are important in places like hotels because customers are always losing the one that was assigned to them and when they go to the lobby and ask for assistance, they expect to be helped immediately and imagine how unprofessional it would look if the receptionist took out a huge pile of keys and started looking for the right one. In addition, you are just as likely to lose it as the customer because there are so many! Oh, if only you had a master key things would be much easier.

If you run a business that has several rooms and you need certain employees to enter most rooms then I recommend getting a master key to facilitate the workload and make the process faster. All you need to do is contact a commercial locksmith and he will be able to help you out. But of course you will need to provide some sort of document that shows you have the right to get a master key because you are the owner of the business.
P.S. If you still have a keychain and you have to constantly add or remove keys, I found this great tip!
