A key is a device which is used to open a lock by turning. They consist of two parts, the blade, which is inserted into the lock, and the bow, left protruding so that a torque can be applied. The blade of a key is normally designed to open one specific lock, although master keys are designed to open sets of similar locks. Keys are an essential feature of modern living in the developed world and are common around the globe. They provide a cheap way of securing many things, including buildings and vehicles. It is common for people to carry the set of keys they need for their day to day activities around with them, often linked by a key ring adorned by key fobs and known as a keychain.

A car key or an automobile key is a key used to open or start an automobile, often identified with the logo of the car company at the head. Modern key designs are usually symmetrical, and some use grooves on both sides, rather than a cut edge, to actuate the lock. It has multiple uses for the automobile with which it was sold. A car key can open the doors, as well as start the ignition, open the glove compartment and also open the trunk (boot) of the car.

Some cars come with an additional key known as a valet key that starts the ignition and opens the driver’s side door but prevents the valet from gaining access to valuables that are located in the trunk or the glove box. Recently, features such as coded immobilizers have been implemented in newer vehicles. More sophisticated systems make ignition dependent on electronic devices, rather than the mechanical key switch. Ignition switches/locks are combined with security locking of the steering column (in many modern vehicles) or the gear lever (Saab Automobile). In the latter, the switch is between the seats, preventing damage to the driver's knee in the event of a collision.
