Dear Rose. I don't know if you read through the entire thread. The likely culprit is our maintenance man's wife. They both have lived here for decades. Obviously the maintenance man already has a key to the buildings since he cleans each one on a regular bases. There is one key that fits all the buildings' locks. So the issue of security is moot. If they changed the locks, they'd have to issue the new key to Rich (the alleged culprit's accomplice) anyway. It's likely they wanted to give the key to a family member rather than pay $75 to get one since you can't just take it to a hardware store an have it duplicated (it's a DND key..do not duplicate).Sounds like they have a key to the building now. I would report that key missing to the building management. They should have to change the lock and issue new keys to everyone. The building is no longer secure, and they should have insurance to cover the expense.
I wonder if your son could tell Rich that the keys he returned contained one that was not his.
Sorry Diva, I didn't understand correctly. Thanks for explaining. I was ready to send out the hitmen, lol... it all made me so angry.Dear Rose. I don't know if you read through the entire thread.

Even if an "outsider" had the keys, there are close to 100 units in our complex, many with more than one family member. It would take time and quite an expense to replace everyone's entry way keys. They are not regular keys. According to a search the original makers of those keys charge an arm and leg for replacements. As an added safety feature, each apartment has two locks...one of which is a deadbolt. I appreciate your concern and I do to mention this to the VP of the board.
You're welcome, dear heart. I love that you were ready to send out the hit squadSorry Diva, I didn't understand correctly. Thanks for explaining. I was ready to send out the hitmen, lol... it all made me so angry.
It's a tremendous relief to find one's missing phone or wallet, isn't it?I'm really sorry about that. I'd turn the keys in as many would. But some people.... Get everything taken care of so you are safe!
My stepfather lost his keys last week. He had spares for the house on him. I found them in the car. Due to his hearing loss, he didn't hear them fall and then realized he didn't have them. He said he looked in the car but I guess I did better.
