When a Morse Watchmans smart key is inserted into a KeyWatcher key slot, identification chip data is stored and then retrieved after a key is properly accessed. Users can only access microchip keys from the cabinets with a proper user code, as designated by their security managers. SmartKeys are available in several different colors (black, brown, white, grey, red, yellow, blue, and green). This allows for keys to be organized by color, which can be useful when utilizing several KeyWatchers in a facility, or designating one group of keys from another within the system. SmartKeys work great when used with our [tamper proof key rings](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/product/tamper-proof-key-ring) ([KeyWatcher Touch](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/products/keywatcher-touch) users can also use SmartKeys with our [SmartKey Reader](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/product/smartkey-reader) system). Using KeyRings with replaceable hub technology allows for a SmartKey to securely hold larger rings of keys, or larger keys like Folger Adam keys.  SmartKeys help make KeyWatcher an easy-to-use key control system. The Random Key Return feature allows users to return keys to any open location in the cabinet and the system will remember the new location for that key. This avoids confusion or misplacement error – a real time saver and convenience to each user. There is also an option available for users who prefer keys to be returned to their original location. ![KeyRing-placingkey](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/hubfs/MorseWatchmans/SmartKeys/KeyRing-placingkey.jpg) ![SmartKeys_350x400_ captions](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/hubfs/MorseWatchmans/SmartKeys/SmartKeys_350x400_%20captions.jpg)   [![Morse Watchmans](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/hubfs/MorseWatchmans/Logo/MW_Green-and-black-Logo.png "Morse Watchmans")](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/) Beyond Key Control This is a search field with an auto-suggest feature attached. - There are no suggestions because the search field is empty. - [About](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/about) - [Products](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/products) - [Markets](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/markets) - [Resources](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/resources) - [Configurator](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/keywatcher-configurator) - [Integrations](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/integrations) - [Blog](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/blog) - [Contact](https://www.morsewatchmans.com/contact) ##### Contact Us ** Morse Watchmans Incorporated – USA** 2 Morse Road Oxford, Connecticut 06478 Phone: **203-264-4949** Toll Free: **800-423-8256** Fax: **203-264-8367** Email: **[morse@morsewatchman.com](mailto:morse@morsewatchman.com)** **Morse Watchmans UK Ltd. – UK** Unit B Swift Park, Old Leicester Road Swift Valley Industrial Estate Rugby, Warwickshire CV21 1DZ Phone: **+44(0)115-967-1567** Email: **[morseuk@morsewatchman.com](mailto:morseuk@morsewatchman.com)** © Copyright 2021 Morse Watchmans - Key Management Systems and Key Control Software.
