KeySmart Classic - Compact Key Holder and Keychain Organizer (up to 14 Keys) (Black)

This comes with the Keysmart itself along with an expansion kit if you have more keys. It’s a well built titanium frame with two screws and spacers to hold the keys. The trick to getting this set up correctly is strategically placing the spacers. Take some time and try different configurations if your keys are misaligned or they are colliding with each other when you close them. Also, make sure your pivot is spaced evenly on both sides. I was able to get the keys to deploy as if I’m using a flipper on a knife. Then, I can swing the one I want completely extended to use in a lock. Another good idea is to make a Sharpie mark in the slot of the screws and one on the frame so you can see if your screws are rotating with use. I don’t want the keys to be very tight, so the screws are just snug. Naturally, they may slightly loosen with time. But, once I decide which keys I’m leaving in it for the long run, I’m going to apply blue Loctite and that will resolve any loosening issues. All in all, this is a nice key holder. The titanium looks great, it’s built well and it’s super compact. It takes a little practice to set it up right, but there’s a link included in the package where they’ll show you how to assemble it. Good buy.

KeySmart Classic | Compact Key Holder and Keychain Organizer (2-14 Keys, Blue) Ok, so I rarely write reviews, but I just have to on this one. Why? Because I find that the overwhelming majority of people who write bad reviews on this product are the same people who can't put together a ham sandwich. This product is ABSOLUTELY worth the money and the time. Read further! Ok, so here is the deal. We all look at the reviews to decide if our next purchase is going to be worth the money. I can tell you it IS! But you say, "OMG, look at all these horrible reviews!"....Ha, well, there is good reason for these bad reviews on this product that fall into two major categories. Read below! Here are the three most common things I have read and how I have debunked these as being hardly worth the negativity: 1) "Within days / weeks it broke! The screws, hardware have snapped...JUNK!" 1A) OK - Wow people. I can tell you EXACTLY why this is happening. Remember the people I said who couldn't put together ham sandwich? Yeah, these negative reviews come from them. Here's why! When you put together this product, you MUST use the little black spacers they provide to even out both sides of the brackets. WHY? BECAUSE, if you do NOT do this, it will create unnecessary tension on the screws. They are made out of a soft aluminum and will break if tension is applied for long periods of time. And why would you need spacers? Because you may have an un-even amount of keys on both sides, OR the keys are just different thicknesses. And there you have it! Make sure both sides are even, and you will have NO ISSUES. I PROMISE.I have had keysmart on my keyring for almost a YEAR with absolutely no issues at all. Still going strong. 2) "Not all my keys will fit due to different shapes, lengths, thicknesses". 2A) Ugh....Ok, yeah of course this product is not a SOLVE ALL for your keys. How could it be. They basically designed this product to accommodate the majority of key sizes and shapes. HOWEVER, this is where you have to think for a second before you buy. Look at your keyring, and look at the product. Does it LOOK like all your keys will fit from what the product pictures look like? No? Well, then you have to decide if you want to get it for the ones that DO fit and keep the rest on the ring, OR just not get it and be surprised when everything doesn't fit AND you don't have a ham sandwich to eat because you couldn't figure out how to open the package to get the ham out. At best, this product WILL WORK for all your keys. At WORST, this product will clean up your keyring some. 3) "It's a pain to get the keys to swivel out and I have to keep tightening it every month or so" 3A) - OMG THIS? Ok, seriously, we gotta kick these people out of the kitchen before they hurt themselves with a butter knife or something. In order to get the right tension, you will have to tighten to your desired torque level with a screwdriver or coin. Just simply tighten a little, and test. Also, YES since this is a screw based system, you will HAVE to give the screws a little twist every so often to keep everything good. Have I mentioned that you can use a COIN for this. It's no inconvenient. People....get out of the kitchen. You aren't safe there. OVERALL: I love this product. The only thing I hate is the fact that I didn't come up with it. But eh, whatever. Just remember, you get what you pay for, unless you can't make that ham sandwich. In that case, it'll always cost you a whole lot more. :) PS: Look at how nicely this cleans up my keyring from my pics. (also proof that I actually have these) :)

This is an amazing device if you don't like keys poking into your thick from your pocket, or if they get caught on things inside of your purse (as I would imagine would happen). The KeySmart neatly lines up your keys and holds them within the confines of the two face plates, preventing them from spinning around and making noise, and it also makes finding your key a lot easier. They come with a bunch of different accessories that you can buy off of their actual site like USB phone chargers, bottle openers, lights, and lanyards, but the basic expansion pack up to ~10 keys has done my key situation wonders. I love this product, but it doesn't get 5 stars because the durability is not quite that of a well seasoned, actively tested product that is supposed to be used multiple times a day. My personal preference is to tighten the screws fairly snugly (these keep the face plates on and squeeze the keys so they don't jingle around). However, the screws seem to be the weak point of this product, as I had to order a second one after the screws in my first one snapped. Now you can buy new replacement screws off their website, unless what happened to me (and a couple other people, see the person's review that included pictures) happens to you - the threaded end of the screw broke off inside of the opposite side, preventing me from pushing out the broken piece and rendering that plate useless. And you can't buy the back piece that receives the screw off of their website - no, you can only buy the screw. For $3. So now it is more economical for me to buy a completely new one than try to contact customer support and see if I can get it fixed or replaced, when Amazon Prime allows me to get the exact one for less than their site in only 2 days. So be careful when screwing the pieces together, because the screws cannot handle much more than finger-tight. TL;DR - amazing product that I love and is extremely useful, but don't over tighten the screws or else you will snap them.

The plastic frame on my old plastic one broke, but the internal parts were OK, so now I have spares, but since they were fine, I fully expect this metal one to last me until I don't need keys anymore. The size of the hole for the clip (that can hold to a keyring) was slightly different between old and new, but I used the new one no problems and could ream out the old one if I never needed one on each side (I won't). Very happy with the old one, and this one costs the same as I paid before but is higher quality and is red so I can find my keys if ever they fall to the ground. I love having my keys combined, and it protects my pockets from abrasion, and it isn't hard to take the key out, but if there is 1 key you use multiple times per day, it is easy to have it out separately. If this breaks I'll update the review but I don't expect to have to do that.

I think this is a cool gadget that COULD BE purposeful. I like that my keys aren't jingling around on my keyring and are organized; however, I have a few complaints. I ordered the 2-4 key version. I have 4 standard-sized, front door keys and my larger car key on the loop piece. Like another reviewer said, my keys do not entirely lie flat alongside one another when using the KeySmart. I tried stacking them different ways and used the provided spacers. That helped some. The height is even on both ends when I used the spacers. I'm just still not sure about the keys stacking on top of one another. The keys stick out a little on the sides. I guess it is right when compared to the product pictures on Amazon. I wished the KeySmart company had provided me with paper directions with words and pictures instead of sending me to their website for a "how to" video. That's a nice way to be "green," but the video didn't show everything (example: show step-by-step instuctions, what is the best way to stack your keys for proper placement?, what is the easiest way to hold your keys and screw in the screw [without use of a quarter...I used a real screwdriver] when attaching them to the KeySmart?, etc.) I ended up watching YouTube videos that were much more helpful. As far as assembly, I have two main complaints. 1. I had the hardest time piecing and holding all of this together!! I had a hard time making the standard-sized keys fit somewhat evenly and holding everything (the keys, the spacers, the metal round insert pin, the end of the KeySmart frame, and the screw) in place with my hands while trying to screw in the screw!!!!! The product description says one can place your keys on the KeySmart within minutes. Yea right! It took this girl an hour or longer. 2. I think there is a major flaw with the screw. The groove in the head of the screw needs to be deeper. I used a slotted or flathead screwdriver and had a hard time screwing in the thread. I also think $20 is pricey for the KeySmart Compact key holder that only holds 2-4 standard keys. This doesn't include the price of the extension kits or accessories.

Addendum: So I'm adding a star to my review, here's why... My Keyport is about two (2) years old and my KeySmart is a year old. Keyports are plastic, and I just have experienced the longevity of Keyports. For those who don't know, Keyports work in this way: - Print a form from Keyport - Take pictures of your keys, upload to site, and order the blank keys - Take the keys to a key maker, and have the Keyport keys cut [Basically, you're making spares keys] - Then insert Keyport keys into the Keyport. Standard Keyport only holds six (6) keys. Advantages of Keyports: - Small as a 9v battery - Ideal for those who don't have/need to carry so many keys Disadvantages: - Extra steps to getting keys and leaving you with spare keys. - You pay a lot for the Keyport - You pay more for the specialized Keyport keys - You pay a specialized key maker to cut the Keyport keys - Plastic and breaks easy, which is what happened to me... All of these (dis)advantages are the reasons why I love the KeySmart brand better than the Keyport. And, one more awesome reason that I love it (Keysmart) is that they partnered with Tile to have an integrated KeySmart shaped Tile that is rechargeable and stays charged for 3-months. (Tile is a Bluetooth and community-based support system to help find stolen/misplaced/lost items.) Advantages of this KeySmart: - Just used the original keys - Silent - Compact - Price is cheaper - Metal (so it'll last longer) Disadvantages: - deploying the keys are slow, but practical ============ Original Review: August 30, 2016 - 3 out of 5 Stars The Keyport brand is still better in the deployment of the keys, but this thinner in carrying keys. I have this key my backup keys for guest and other rarely used function. The key holder itself is cheaper than the Keyport brand, and it doesn't requires you get special sized keys made for the holder--thus saving money. If I remember correctly, I had spent about $50 for an used Keyport holder and 5 keys (holds 6) (saving me about $25 buying it new). With this KeySmart holder, I just spent $20 for the holder (for the 2-10 keys holder). I don't see how with what it came with that I can hold anymore than 4 keys, and that is a tight fit. I will have to pay an additional $8-10 for the expansion pack to add more keys. Which is still cheaper than the KeyPort. I have forgotten my keys in my home clothes the next day changing into my work clothes because I carry a set keys for the house even when I'm home doing nothing, so having a second set of keys in a holder is convenient. In addition, I like consolidation and really don't like having too many keys, but what I do like is having a compact and silent set of keys and this is a great option. Three stars for: CONS - misleading number of keys that this holder can hold with just the basic purchase - deploying the keys are slow, but practical PROS - Thinner, - Cheaper, - With the expansion pack, you can hold a lot more keys than the Keyport brand.

This key organizer is a pretty solid option, and can hold quite a bit of keys. I carry it everyday, and it does have built up a bit of scratches, but been honest, I do have abused of it. This fits pretty comfortably on the pocket, and offers a breeze of use. It might feel a little bit uncomfortable to use, if you use it in a tight corner, specially if attached to anything else as I do. But it is pretty good option to reducing the dreaded key bulk. Keysmart has started releasing some extra features, or tools that can be attached to all of their key organizers, so paired up, could be pretty awesome. I would totally recommend as a gift option, or as a self gift.

The key holder comes assembled with a little baggy of spacer and longer screws. The factory assembled screw is intended to hold 1 to 2 keys per side. That's where the issue starts. The key holder disassembles into what can be termed top cover and bottom cover with the nuts to the holding screws. The nuts are short, only long enough to hold 2 keys and 2 spacers. To put in more than 2 keys, you basically have to hold the keys in position while trying to put the top cover on with the longer screws. It is not too bad on one side but then you have to repeat the process with the second side. The assembly process can be a bit frustrating trying to line up 3 or 4 keys per side to reinstall the top cover. Took a couple of tries to finally finish the reassembly. once it's all together though it works well. After a couple of weeks, the keys are still holding strong in position. It is compact and not too thick. I put a spacer between each key, which helps with both making the keys easier to spin out and locking everything position.

This is going to be a two part review: 1) Keysmart compact holder for 2-12 keys ( http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00JXQQRJ0?redirect=true&ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1 ) 2) the Vagany keychain pocket tool GJ023D ( http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00S4V2XDE?redirect=true&ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0 ) 1) i am impressed by the keysmart. after reading a few reviews claiming quality and durability issues i decided to go with the aluminum model instead of the titanium which i was originally looking at. that was a mistake. i should have gone with my first choice. under normal use and installation i cant see how people would encounter any issues relating to the product. i am 100% satisfied. the build quality is excellent, installation was easy, and keysmart delivered on all their claims. 2) this is actually much better quality than i was expecting. i purchased it specifically to go with my keysmart and was not expecting much. however, it is well build and quite strong. i would not hesitate to use it for some light prying. now for why this is a two part review. my intent for these purchases was to organize my keys yet still maintain the functionality i had with my attached keychain multitool (not the one in this review). instead of attacking my old multitool to the keysmart via a normal key ring i looked long and hard to find a product which i could install inside the keysmart. after quite a while looking i ordered both these products. despite the fact that they were in no way made to be used together they are almost a perfect match. the loop on the top portion of the multitool makes a perfect replacement for the included keysmart loop, the width of the tool is only slightly larger than the overall width of the keysmart so i am adding minimal bulk. and the length is almost perfect for the compact keysmart (it is about 1mm too long so there is some very slight rubbing between the tip of the tool and the spaces on the opposite end of the keysmart. the hole through which i installed the tool on the keysmart isnt perfectly centered in the tool so it does extend slightly on one side. however, these are very minor flaws in the system as a whole. these two products are almost made for each other. Now my plea to keysmart: PLEASE MAKE A TOOL OF YOUR OWN! with a little tweaking this would be perfect. some things i would like to see for an in-house solution would be: - make it that 1mm shorter to fit the compact keysmart perfectly. perhaps make a longer version for the extended model as well - keep the ruler on the sides (you guys already have the ability to laser engrave already for the marking), bottle opener, and wrench - the two flat portions on the tip can be used for standard or even phillips screws. the only change i would make here is the smaller of the two flat portions make into an actual phillips screwdriver - on the tip between the screwdrivers instead of whatever that is put a small rope cutter in there. - remove a bit of material between the circular hole towards the top and the upper loop to make them a bit closer. also center the hole so the tool would not extend more from one side of the keysmart - that teardrop thing i honestly dont know what it for. whatever. i have attached a couple photos as well.

Very ergonomi, keeps the keys organised and neat in my pocket.

Great little gadget for storing common keys. Unfortunately if you have large bulky keys they do not fit, so you have to use a ring attached to this to carry these keys. If you only have common household keys, then I would highly recommend this.
