Thanks
for the warning.

Having been made disabled 8 years ago I always intended to get one of these but never ever got around to it.

Once again this afternoon having been to the beach with the dogs early evening, the marvellous national trust people had buggered off home locking the toilets behind them. Once again my mantra "must remember to get a radar key" enters my thick skull. Once again I forget until 00.15 and I read your post. I've just ordered one.

You've saved me from m any a painful 30 minute car ride home.

hurrah!
Actually, they do have another use as well.

You know how shops that don't/can't have level access sometimes get around it by having a doorbell at wheelchair height, the idea being that we ring the bell and the shop assistant will come to the door and either bring a ramp so we can get in, or bring goods out to us...? And you know how a lot of the time that doorbell doesn't have any batteries in it, because the shop assistants have got annoyed with it being rung by kids?

Well, it seems that now there's these things that are like a doorbell, but they only work if you put a RADAR key in them. I've only seen it on two or three buildings so far, all of which were pharmacies and reasonably accessible anyway, but I thought it seemed like quite a good idea.
