ABSTRACT:
A key adaptor includes a substantially rigid body member having structure for pivotable connection to a bow portion of a key so that the key is pivotable between a closed position, wherein the key is substantially aligned with the body member, and an open position wherein the key is pivoted to an angle with the body member so that the body serves as a handle for turning the key when the key is inserted into a lock. The structure for pivotable connection to the key provides a firm positioning of the key relative to the body member in a desired position.
