The system is proprietary, ie who kept the key chain not only in your pocket or on the kitchen table but sometimes would like to hang up, which should pick up the key cabinet or at least the key board of Durable because only there the suspension works. Although you can hang the Key clip with little hassle even on a nail or the like, but who plans to who should maybe better use another product.
First, notice that the Key Clip is running very stable and can not be compared with these well-known, labbe engined gizmos is. Man holds in his hand and what really needs to have no worries that you accidentally fold the plastic shield. How far this stability comes, shows itself later during assembly. Otherwise the trailer makes visually elegant and sophisticated look.
A bit disappointing I find the color scheme. The case only four available colors black, dark blue, red and yellow are in poor lighting conditions further limited because the dark blue is so dark that you like to keep it a try for Black. At the price level it should be possible to offer a wider range of colors.
The insertion of the inscription plate is simple: Transparent flap up, sign / note pure, flap down. I mention this because I know also systems in which the exchange of the label is inevitably linked to the dismantling of the key ring, which can be very annoying at times. Therefore, I am pleased that separation of labeling and key. The package are the way with 10 empty e cardboard signs, which can be labeled by hand. The PDF templates offered by the manufacturer on the Internet, say no to me. The design options are still very limited and in my attempt to use my text ended up significantly offset downwards. Who value on a clean label specifies the list should create itself. It is, incidentally, completely unnecessary to rely on thicker paper or even cardboard. Normal copy paper will do just fine. With the format 40 x 17.5 mm I drove very well.
The assembly of the key is a little more fummeliger. Therefore one must first open the transparent lid so, how to do it in sign changes and then turn out of its holder. This is extremely important that you do this at the right side. Otherwise, you can destroy the Key clip and irrevocably with the appropriate use of force. The right side is not labeled or otherwise apparent. Apart from a really tiny and inconspicuous failed drawing on the packaging there is no evidence. Is this hurdle, you have the Key clip broken down into its component parts: body-color, transparent flap and metal keyring. Now you can tinker the key to the known impractical way in the key ring, which is further complicated by the fact that the ring quite small with about 17 mm diameter fails. If this is completed successfully, it turns out quickly that the assembly is a bit tricky. First, you have to push the flap to 1/3 to 1/2 on the pen, then thread the keyring, completely defer door, and then it clicks. This can be an ordeal will the more of / to be fitted keys differ from a single standard key. Ultimately, it should however be such that you do not do that ever, but ideally for each key only once. An advantage of this system is that you can change the trailer relatively quickly, should a key time want to assign a different color.
Although fit into the Key Clip larger key rings and also bulky keys such as the car and even more keys are not a problem, but it may be the actual benefit of this system lead to problems. The suspension in the appropriate key bar is difficult or impossible with increasing strength of the Annex.
A crucial difference of Key clip to his mostly nameless relatives lies in its suspension. Have others only a hole where they can be suspended, this has two knobs, with which it can be hung in the bracket of the key bars specially offered for it. These are usually located on a key board also available from Durable and this is best yet in a key box. There, the key hang quite reliable. Who holds only a key plank in the eye of cost or other reasons, should ensure that this is suspended from a point at which you pass touches accidentally, thereby tearing down all the keys. As a key cabinet would be recommended.
The complete assembly as well as the suspension of a key clip can be seen in my video review.
Pro:
- Robust design
- High quality and attractive impression
- Replacing the Marking without dismantling the key (ring) possible
- Keyring independent of the trailer, key can be easily exchanged
- Practical suspension system
Cons:
- Poor Instructions
- A little fiddly fitting of the key
- Color Picker low (4 colors)
- Dark blue and black not well distinguishable
Neutral:
- Proprietary system: sets Durable Key Box / Key board ahead
- Several key normal mountable, with thick it can be closely
Conclusion:
A chic, stable and practical system to bring order into his key-chaos. The exchange of keys and labeling is practically ,, because independently, albeit in the case of some key fumbling. The negative aspects, particularly suitable not for Grobmotoriker key assembly and the color scheme would justify a half star deduction, which gives 4.5 stars. I then decided on 4 stars because I still expect a little more perfection at a quite high-priced and on top of proprietary system.
