The idea of handing your house key to a burglar may seem ridiculous, but that's exactly
what you could be doing every time you send a spare floating among family,
friends and service personnel. The key holders themselves may be trustworthy,
but you can't control the paths they may cross and the situations in which your
key may be exposed to the risk of duplication.
So be smart about
issuing spares, and take care when you're carrying your master set through everyday
routines, such as valet drop-offs and auto shop visits. Finally, don't ever
hide spare keys in "secret" places outside your home, because smart snoops know
which flowerpots to look under. |
