The keys may be separably retained within corresponding apertures of the card, or may be separably, hingedly attached to the emergency key holder card such that they may pivot into and out of the plane of the card. The hinge means provided pursuant to this invention allows for each key to be separated from the card at the preference of the user. Each key may be separably retained within the key holder card by means of a tab and corresponding recess arrangement, by manufacturing the key such that each non-cut edge directly abuts the corresponding key aperture edge of the key holder card, or by a separable hinge means as described above. Each key may also be separably retained within corresponding key shaped apertures.
