What kind of a key is it?

It is to a Kia SUV. We don’t buy fancy cars. It is a key not a car that starts without the key in the ignition... it just won’t fit on an ol fashioned key ring. Bought a hOrsheshoe type but it keeps unscrewing and I just spent another two hours hunting for the key

I too have a Kia and have given up on finding a key ring. I keep it loose in my pocket because my Kona will relock after a short period of time even with me standing near it with the fob in my pocket. You might find a ring type but most that will fit are large.

Usually those thick topped keys will fit on a standard ring, but you have to pry the ring further apart and really work to get it onto the ring. I found this metal ring that might work. Metal ring Or you might try a small carabiner.

Add a ring that it does fit to join the key to your desired ring.

My Honda key is made like that and I have this key ring. The Honda key is on one end and everything else on the other.

Here is my car key. You could add a ring to the car key......like bpath has mentioned.

As a male, I keep my keys in a front pants pocket and don't have them connected or with rings on them, to avoid having a thick bulge. A car key and a separate door key (sometimes on rare occasions two) are all I have with me at any one time. I don't use store scan tags.

Elmer, there are man purses. You don't have to put everything in your pockets, keys can make your pockets "holely" in a short period time. :-)

Yes, there are and I'm more than comfortable enough in my own skin to use one. I have a smallish shoulder bag for when I travel to keep small things (passport, folding money, keys and small electronics stuff) organized. I don't use it daily. It looks like a purse of sorts, not like a backpack. When I have it I sometimes get stares from folks when I'm in the US, rarely when abroad. Either way I don't care, it's for me, not a fashion statement.

When I'm not away on a long trip, I carry little with me. Two keys in one front pocket, a phone (I always get the smallest good quality Android available) in the other, a thin wallet (with very little in it) in one back pocket and a hanky in the other. I rarely have holes in pockets and can't remember the last time.

I do this. Use a metal ring on the bottom of the fob (you do have to pry a little harder to get it on), then onto a plastic coil that I put around my wrist when not in the ignition. This way I am far less apt to lose or put my fob down somewhere. I've used this blue coil thing with my other car keys for years. So far no breakage. House keys on there too.

You can get some Loctite thread locker. You put it on the threads of the screw and it keeps it from unscrewing. You can buy it at most hardware stores and it is cheap. You do have to apply heat to get it apart again though. It is a sort of glue.

I keep my car fob separate from other keys. The car fob is always in a side pocket of whatever handbag I am carrying, or if I need to take them out, I carry the fob in a pocket. I seldom need to use one of the 3 keys on my other small key ring (key to DD’s house, key to our condo, key to our house), so they stay elsewhere, usually in the console of my car.

Where I take my car for service they do not want the staff to have any key other than the fob for the car. In looking at most of the fobs shown above I can see why some have no problem.

Thanks to all. If you saw the bag I carry you would get why I don’t want to carry it separately and the normal keychains I have tried were ruined! I will try the other suggestions and I will ask the maintenance guy at my work about locktite. He is awesome.

Maybe just use a zip tie...or use a zip tie to attach the key to a regular ring.

Like maifleur03 has mentioned to make sure it's easy to take car key off ring for services. I had a car serviced today, so one car key was missing on my horse ring. :-) There is another thing I want to mention, please don't put too many keys with your car keys, it could damage your ignition switch.

That's good advice. But more and more cars have keyless ignitions. When the fob is in the car, its presence is verified by radio signal. Then push a button to start, push the same button to stop.

just use 2 key rings together. I have a Kia also

Please do not leave your house keys in your car even if you park in a garage. It is not smart because there are too many people who know how or have the equipment to enter both your garage and car. Then you have provided the keys to your house.

If you take a few moments to think about it if your garage door would stop working a tech would have the electronic tools to open it if you were not inside the house to pull that cord. People can buy those electronic tools.

You can use a short bead chain to connect the key to other things. Plastic curly cord and other plastic items are not secure. Many will break after a long period of use.
