September is National Preparedness Month and this month as part of the Master Lock Live Secure Safety Squad, I get the chance to help you protect your keys so that you’re prepared in case you ever lock yourself out of the house. Depending on the time of year, accidentally locking the keys inside can be a pretty horrible experience. I remember once returning home with my two young boys after running some errands in bone chilling winter weather only to realize that I’d forgotten to bring my keys. The panic I felt as I tried to figure out how to get my boys out of the cold was something I don’t ever want to have to experience again.
While hiding a key outside is a popular solution to situations like mine, there’s always the worry that somebody will find the key and take it, or even use it to break into the house. The Master Lock Storage Security 5423D Key Safe is the perfect solution. It allows a family to safely store a spare key or access card outside without worrying about anybody else being able to take it. The wall-mount safe is durable, has large, easy-to-read buttons and can be programmed with a combination of up to twelve digits.
To ensure you never get stuck outside, Master Lock is very generously offering one lucky Mommy Kat and Kids reader their very own Storage Security 5423D Key Safe and a $10 Visa gift card, a $48 total value! To enter to win, just leave a blog comment about whether or not you’ve ever locked yourself out of your house or car.
Taking the time to make preparations for those unexpected emergencies is always a good idea and this month is a great time to ensure that your car’s emergency kit is stocked for cold weather, your window and door locks are functional and your spare key is safely secured somewhere accessible just in case. Fortunately, the Master Lock Storage Security Key Safe and the other great Master Lock products can help keep you safe and secure all year long!

Out of the house one time – had to break the back porch window to get in
Yep, I’ve done both!
Yes my keys were locked in my brand new car. I had only one key and my young son (13) who has ADHD wanted the keys to the car to get a Cd out of the car. I was busy with something else so I asked my boyfriend to go outside with him to make sure he didn’t lock the only set of keys in the car. Well they managed to lock the keys in the car and I had to call a locksmith. My boyfriend said he’d pay for half of the locksmith bill (I thought he should pay the entire bill), but he never paid anything.
