Stash & storage
The Stash Car Key is a diversion safe disguised as an ordinary car key fob that lets you carry small valuables completely undetected on your everyday keyring. From the outside, it looks and feels like a standard remote — press-buttons, textured plastic casing, metal key loop — but twist it open and you've got a discreet hidden compartment inside. Pop it on your keys next to the real ones and nobody gives it a second glance.

Complete your stealth setup with a smell-proof stash bag for anything that needs an extra layer of discretion, or pair this key with a stash can or stash bottle for larger items at home. The Stash Car Key handles what fits in your pocket — the rest of the range covers everything else.
Here's the thing about hiding small items: most "secret" containers look exactly like what they are. Stash jars shaped like drink cans, hollowed-out books — they work at home, but you can't exactly carry a fake Coca-Cola can through a festival gate without raising eyebrows. The Stash Car Key solves the portability problem entirely. It sits on your keyring alongside your house key, your bike lock, and your actual car remote. Nobody inspects someone's keys. They're the most boring, overlooked object a person carries.
We've sold dozens of stash products over the years, and the feedback on this one is consistently the same: "it just looks like a key." That's the whole point. The dimensions match a standard fob — the buttons are moulded in, the plastic has the right weight and texture, and the keyring loop is metal, not some flimsy plastic giveaway. It won't fool a locksmith who picks it up and examines it for 30 seconds, but it absolutely fools the casual observer, which is 99.9% of situations you'll actually encounter.
The one honest limitation: the compartment is small. You're not fitting a week's supply of anything in here. Think a few pills, a small amount of ground herb, a rolled note, a micro SD card, or a spare SIM. If you need more volume, look at a stash can or a stash book. But for day-to-day carry where discretion matters more than capacity, nothing beats something that's literally designed to be ignored.
We get asked this constantly, so here's a practical breakdown based on what we've seen customers use it for. The internal compartment measures roughly 40mm x 15mm x 8mm deep — enough for small, flat items but not bulky ones.
| Item | Fits? |
|---|---|
| 2-4 small pills or capsules | Yes |
| Folded banknote (emergency cash) | Yes |
| Micro SD card or SIM card | Yes — with room to spare |
| Small pinch of ground herb | Yes — wrap in film first |
| A full pre-roll | No — too long and wide |
| Jewellery (small ring or earring) | Yes |
| USB stick | Most nano-size USBs fit |
If you're the type who likes to keep a backup plan in your pocket — a spare painkiller, some emergency cash, a memory card with important files — this is the most invisible way to do it. We've had customers tell us they've carried one through airport security without a second look, though we'd say that's more about the key looking boring than any guarantee it won't get inspected if flagged.
The best stash container for everyday carry is the one nobody notices. A stash can on your desk at home? Brilliant — it holds more and the weight feels right. A hollowed-out book on your shelf? Classic, holds plenty. But neither of those goes in your pocket. The Stash Car Key weighs next to nothing, takes up zero extra space because it's already on your keyring, and doesn't require you to carry a suspicious extra object. For on-the-go discretion, it's the pick we'd make every time. For home storage, pair it with something bigger from the stash and storage range.
The compartment holds small, flat items — 2 to 4 pills, a folded note, a micro SD card, or a pinch of wrapped herb. It's roughly 40mm x 15mm x 8mm deep. Not huge, but that's the trade-off for something this discreet.
It can if the items are loose and small. Pack a tiny bit of tissue or cotton around whatever you're storing to eliminate any noise. A rattling key fob draws more attention than a silent one.
Yes — the moulded buttons, plastic texture, and metal keyring loop make it look like any generic car remote. On a keyring with other keys, it blends in completely. Someone would have to physically open it to know the difference.
No. It's a diversion safe only — the buttons don't function and there's no transponder chip inside. It's designed to look like a key, not work as one.
Not fully. The seal is snug but not airtight. If you're storing anything with a strong scent, wrap it in cling film or a small smell-proof bag first. That combination keeps things properly contained.
The metal keyring loop may trigger a detector, just like any normal set of keys would. The key fob itself is mostly plastic. It reads the same as a regular key on a standard security scan.
