FYI, don’t post a picture of your keys because that’s enough information to make a copy of the key, should someone decide they want to.
Also, if someone is prepared, just briefly handling your keys can be enough time to make an impression that could also be used to make a copy.
There should be 2 pink keys no?

“Not too long ago, my ex-girlfriend told me her new boyfriend was complaining that her back door was too tight. When I went over, I didn’t have any problem slipping right in. I even tried a few times and couldn’t figure out the issue. Well, she recently sent me a photo, and I think I see the problem…”
Who has front and back doors that are keyed differently? I have one key for all doors.
Also, most locksmiths have cool key designs you can buy. Do that instead. Maybe do some electrolysis or powder coating if you must DIY. Paint will flake off inside the lock, gum up the works, and ruin your whole day.
Just be sure you wash your key before entering the front if you used it in the back first.

Well until I read that comment I assumed everybody lol
If you own your home, go fix that. It is a pretty straightforward fix.
ruin your whole
Cheeky bastard…
Who has front and back doors that are keyed differently?
My house was designed to be a duplex (despite being a single house on a 6-acre country property), so the two floors have their own separate amenities. They only connect with a rickety staircase in the basement. Otherwise, they might as well be two separate apartments.
The house is embedded in a hill, so the first floor walks out at ground level in the front yard and the second floor exits at ground level in the back yard.
My parents used to rent out the first floor when I was a kid, so that door always had a separate lock. Now, I have a buddy and his mother living in the first floor while they’re trying to get back on their feet.
Their house got foreclosed on when they were 95% paid off on their mortgage, so they lost everything. And rentals are way too expensive in my area for them to afford. So they’re staying with me until they can save enough for a home of their own.
I like that they have their own key separate from my floor. I don’t have to worry about them snooping in my home when I’m not around, and vice versa. They get a sense of privacy, knowing that I’m not just gonna walk into their home.
You can key the shared door to accept both unit keys, while each unit key will only be able to open their own unit and the shared door, but not the other unit.
I did this when I rented in a multi family home that had a shared outer door but individual unit front doors, so I could use my own apartment key to also open the outer shared door and the shared exterior basement door.
I actually have electric number pad locks on both doors. They’re separate locks; the back door has had one for years and I just installed a new door on the front a couple years ago.
So they technically have two separate keys, but we don’t really use the keys. I know the combo to both doors (since it’s my home), but my friends living on the first floor only know the combo to their front door.
I like it because they’re set to always be locked from the outside, so I never have to worry about whether I locked my door or not. If the door shuts, it’s locked. And I don’t need to carry a key around. Just enter the combo and it unlocks for 10 seconds.
Nice, I would still be tempted to register the inner door code to open the outer door too. I hate redundancy and love the idea of everyone having 1 credential that opens everything they are allowed to access. At my current place we use codes but we don’t have access to register them unfortunately so I have to put up with memorizing multiple things, on top of having the front office accidentally reset our accounts one day causing us to need to toss all our old codes and memorize a whole new set because they don’t know how to re-register the old codes that they wiped.
For finding them in the dark, a little scented oil also works. That way you can identify them by smell.
I see people sniffing their keys in the pub all the time on the weekend, is that what they’re doing??
My key works in the front door and the backdoor…
And the gold one for the shower stall?
Ah, yes. I’ll simply associate pink with Benadryl.
Color aside, what a terrible idea
Why do you say that?
I wouldn’t use a painted key in a lock. Any material debris in a lock adds resistance and that paint coming off in the lock pretty quickly.
I don’t know if that was the original commenters point but that’s why I wouldn’t.
I think if they just painted the “body” (the part that you hold) it would be much more efficient.
You wouldn’t even need to paint it since there are coloured rubber caps.
Yep, that was my point - that paint is going to rub off into the locking mechanism and be a nightmare eventually.
Could anodize them or use a dye instead of a paint to get the same effect without any of it flaking off into the lock (or your pocket).
I used a pained set of keys in my house locks for 13ish years and never ran in to an issue. May have been the type of paint. By the end the only print left on any of them were little splotches around the head of the key and deep in the groves.
Paint it with colored graphite, problems solved.
Not who you responded to, but they look spray painted. That’s gonna look fine until it’s actually used, then it’ll be a flaky mess
One is chocolate milk and the other one is strawberry
There should be two for the pink.

Thanks, I hate it.
But what is that third one for? Sheds!?
One for the copper.
It should be in the middle though.
We’ve had one, yes. But what about second
breakfastbootyhole?I dreamt once that I had a random Grindr hookup, and he showed me a brand new third hole that everyone has but nobody knows about, and then he proceeded to break that hole like he was trying to break my spine (hole was on the lower back)
Brass for the ass.
gross
