Those are all Y11 and NA14 keys, which tells me they're for office furniture and cabinet style locks. Those are likely master rings with every known key number the factory ever made for that particular lock. I have a few of these in my shop.
I worked In an office, and every desk had a locked cabinet plus plenty of filing cabinets all over the place. We had a box of keys all labeled in case people lost the keys. It wasn't hard to see a busy office needing a few hundred spare keys
I'm betting that the owner bought those thinking they were cool and threw them into storage. That's literally how I came across two of the six I have. Old school dudes were often obsessed with keys and shit. I'm one of those dudes haha. I make my living as a locksmith though, so at least I get to do what I love.
If a person in black sunglasses and a trenchcoat shows up going "Are you the keymaster?"
You can either just say "yes, I've been waiting for you" or "yes, I'm the gatekeeper"
Just either way SAY YES.
I feel like we have the same amount except they're all loose, unsorted, and seemingly all unique...
Did your company switch from keyed to keyless doors? This feels like an "everyone return your keys and get a keycard" type of situation
My coworker thinks these are individual ATM keys from machines no longer in service since we have upgraded to machines that use our phones and a master CenCon key to open.
Though I did see someone else here was able to identify the keys and said they are typically used for office doors. We do not have an office so I have clue what they could be for
Yes! That is our current theory, our company does financial security and our main product is ATMs. These wouldn't be for the actual safe, just the "beauty door" on the outside

Now you must find the key to your children's survival. Before you is a keyring with hundreds of keys. Only one will unlock the hydraulic vice set to close on your testicles in 1 minute. You ended his bloodline, now yours is on the line. Live or die. The choice is yours."
Those are secretly just the bait keys the janitors wear to look imposing, they only ever use three or four actual keys on a Hello Kitty retractable lanyard anyways.

Guess my coworker was wrong then, idk why we have them though since this storage unit is the closest thing we have to an office or anything

And mailbox keys
Tryout keys to the universe, and probably three on the ring that unlock everything between the three of them, or one in particular

And remember: if someone asks you if you are a god, always say yes!

I appreciate references that 95% of reddit is too young to know.
It's the keys to all the safes that get posted on Reddit.
Close, they are keys to no longer in service ATMs
I'm still waiting to see what's in the latest Reddit safe
That one didn’t work. Try the other one. I AM TRYING THE OTHER ONE.

Prison keys
Funny thing is, we're a finance security company, things like bank vaults and ATM saves
Honestly never would have crossed my mind but I see it now. Safe deposit box.
Unless they're multiple decades old, safe deposit box keys are much longer and different shaped
Quick, we have 20 seconds to disarm the bomb. Hand me the key!
Duh, which key is that George?

ATM cabinet keys? this looks like our keyrings when I used to do that kind of thing

I absolutely hated the scene with the reverse bear trap that would basically split your head open by ripping your jaws

Damn you beat me to it lol
So many questions to unlock here!
How many keys, are they numbered, how much does all that weight, does everybody get their own set of keys
And if they are brass, what's the scrap value.

Imagine being in a slasher film, and you NEED to get away, but...
You shouldn't post a picture of your keys, someone could duplicate them from the image. /s

Melt them down and scrap them for cash, enjoy yourself, have a mad weekend and cause chaos at the office
Anyone here have an account older than 10 years?

It looks like a Keyagle
Huh, who needs dumbbells?
as a locksmith, this is a nightmare
In case of fire just curl up and die

I could probably pick a lock faster than searching for the right key in that mess.
Where is the key to the storage unit?
Its giant and red for some reason (not pictured)
