    Hi,

    We are looking at a number of devices but the ones which include an integrated lock typically have very boring key designs. We like the idea of the integrated lock as it reduces the noise and size of the device but we would like an attractive key design as it is worn around the neck. Does anyone know of a way to improve this? I imagine this is a common issue, perhaps custom made keys are a solution?

    She likes the current key as is a simple design with a heart shape at the top where the necklace thread goes through. So it looks like a piece of jewlery which is nice, and so a purely functional key design is not ideal.

    I've been thinking along the same lines with the 'magic locker' type keys. The key doesn't need to be so long so considering cutting one right down to the bare minimum and incorporating it into a charm for a Pandora bracelet.

    That is a nice idea. However I would prefer to have it in a similar way as out current design (as you can see in our picture)
    So did someone maybe replicated the key into a more intriguing design?

    My avatar is an integrated lock key, cut down, and attached to an antique heart key. Polished. If you have questions on the process, it was easy and can easily explain the process with limited amount of tools or skill. I put a gasp on it anshe wears it on her necklace as a pendant.

    I had asked this question about getting a custom made key for a padlock. Things have moved along and now we’re on the intergrated locks.

    I wonder how easy it would be to make a custom design jewellery grade key in silver or gold?

    I love it when my wife can wear my key. It’s a constant reminder seeing it hanging for all to see

    Wow, it looks EXACTLY like what I had in mind. It even looks much prettier than what we have at the moment. and if you invest your own time in the end it is something unique just made for us. So please do explain the process as I can definitely imagine wearing that.
    First question would be where you got this beautiful antique key? And then process did you go through and what kind of tools did you need for it?

    I got an antique key from eBay, it is hollow at the end so I just needed to measure how much of the cage key to cut off to insert it.

    Then took a dremel tool, cut the key off to length needed to insert with only the teeth showing, then cut it length wise so it would fit inside. So far the only tools needed is a dremel and a small Vice to hold it while you work.

    Then I cut off the actual teeth part of the antique key. I used the polishing kit for dremel and smoothed out any edges and polished it to a shine.

    I put some clear epoxy/clear jb weld on the key and inserted it into the antique key. I then put it in a vice for 24 hrs. Used the dremel to smooth any rough spots. I drilled a tiny hole at the top and put in a necklace hasp (I took apart one of her junk necklaces for parts). I even used the lobster hook part so she can take it off her necklace easily lol.

    All done. About 2 hours of messing around and 24 hours to let it cure.

    Hope that gave you some ideas.

    Thank you so much. That gives me the confidence I need for us to make the "ordinary" keys look brilliant :)

    Hi,

    @Couple4517 and I tried to get a nice key done for 2 months now. We are not very handy unfortunately and so we did not get far.

    Does somebody know about a way to get a key turned into a kind of jewelry?
    We tried several locksmithes, but no luck there either :(

    @Nicoftime we bought 2 sets of antique and nice looking keys. Unfortunately they were not hollow so we could not fit the end of the key inside for easy welding. Do you maybe even have a link to the key you bought?

    You can now get your custom gold or silver keys and locks here:

    https://www.chastity-shop.com/

    I should say I have no affiliation or association with this company and I have not purchased through them as yet

    Hey, thanks that looks very nice .Unfortunately I fell in love with a heartshape design which they do not offer. I have send them a message though, maybe they can do customized ones... But I still hope there might be a slightly cheaper version out there? ;)

    They did offer a ‘Black Friday’ deal on the silver ones of 50% off.

    Still it’s a place to start

    Hey,
    They already answered (imagine, I sent them an email yesterday evening quite late) and said they could make a heart-shaped one. So we are currently thinking about it. Still 109€ would have made the decision much easier than 218€ ;)

    I just happened to get the necklace i ordered for the heart shaped key to my Lori device so i thought i'd add it here.

    The SOS capsule is an exact fit for the extra driver bit, so even if you didn't order the key, this is a pretty neat way to carry the security screw bit around.

    The heart shaped key is an option when ordering a Lori device, and the SOS necklace is from ebay (seller arabesques-jewels)

    I wish all custom device makers would have a heart shaped key option to go along with their security screws since it sucks having to decide between having something your KH can wear and how much nicer security screws are.

    Sorry I don’t have a link, they were on eBay. If they are not hollow, you can cut a groove down the middle and push key into that with some clear jb weld.

    Yes so true, I am quite sad that I do not have anything to wear anymore. The first cage was used with a padlock and so we could have a look for a nice padlock with nice keys (the one in my profile picture).

    But with the new cage we are more happy with the cage itself but the key is a problem. I loved wearing the key and with it teasing my sub with pictures of me wearing it (like e.g. my profile picture) and I really really miss being able to do that as the ordinary key that comes with the cylinder is just nothing I would want to wear :(

    I actually think this is a huge problem that no manufacturer seems to address in even a vague way. The lock and key are symbolic as much as they are material, and a keyholder should be able to display the key without it looking like it's a key to the freezer in the garage. It doesn't require anything fancy, just a small brass key would be fine. Maybe charge extra for something fancier.

    Well I would say in that case the chastity-shop mentioned upstairs is the place to go to, as the keys look indeed very nice AND they seem very responsive. They told me I could get a heart shaped one for the same price as the round keys on their website and he told me to send him a shape and he would sketch the key up for me before I decide to buy it. My only problem is the price of >200 € otherwise it would be on its way here already ;)

    I do agree though that the manufacturers should more look into offering an option for a nicer key.

    My only worry with silver or (especially) gold is that the metal might not be strong enough. Some of these locks are fairly sticky, and require force to open or close. I also agree that the price is excessive. It's probably worth it for someone who is going to wear it daily, though.

    Well, Lori does offer heart shaped keys but it isn't really advertised, so if you don't happen to notice that picture and decide to inquire about it, you're SoL. That doesn't seem very smart from a business perspective.

    I'd love to see Male Chastity Now and Mature Metal at least add something similar to their offerings. Even if they priced it similar to Lori (IIRC, $75), I imagine they'd sell. I know it would factor into which device I get when I finish stretching my new PA.

    @keyheld you posted the link to the shop in the first place. Did you buy a key from them - or do you know anybody who did?
