I Have No Idea You Could Use a PVC Pipe to Make a Very CLEVER Household Hack!

One of the most annoying things that can ever happen to us is being locked out of our own house. It happened to me, too, and boy, it was really troublesome. I felt frustrated, and honestly, I felt like a blockhead. But this kind of experience need not happen again.

To avoid being locked out of the house, the “hidden house key” trick has been used by a lot of people for quite some time now. But sometimes, you might just run out of hiding places. Sure, you can leave a spare key under the door mat or under a flower pot, but it’s really not safe to do that anymore. Believe me, your spare key will be so easy to find that it’ll literally take a few seconds for other people to figure out where it’s hidden.

Enter HouseholdHacker, a popular Youtuber who gives quick and simple tricks to make our everyday lives easier. He came up with a creative way to make a DIY hidden house key holder that unsuspecting strangers will mistake for a normal part of your house. All you need is some PVC pipe, a PVC screw cap, a rubber rain collar, some adhesive, a few centimeters of yarn or string, and well, your spare key.

Watch the instructional video:

This PVC key holder definitely looks legit, and is really simple to make. Unless some curious and nosy plumber meddles with the pipe and shakes it, it’s pretty foolproof.

You must remember, though, to make your own original design that matches your house or garden. Paint the pipe or hide it behind some bushes – it’s totally up to you. In the end, you get a really cool “hidden key holder” that is likely to save you from being locked out again!
