![2 Pack Heavy Duty Retractable Badge Holder Reel, Will Well Metal ID Badge Holder with Belt Clip Key Ring for Name Card Keychain [All Metal Casing, 27.5" Steel Wire Cord, Reinforced Id Strap]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Tf8HweBsL.jpg)
I bought these.
Badge reel
3 Card Holder
I use my own Lanyard rather the one that came with the badge holder. I just clip the reel to my Lanyard and put the badge holder on the reel.
Been using this one for a few years, no issues.

Strangely, no one actually pointed you to what you asked for: a retractable keychain.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002SQ9P5K/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
I've had very good results with a Keybak retractable keyring. This one has a locking feature.
I have this one from Amazon and highly recommend it. They have other sizes that I would assume have more tension, but the smallest one should work for you:
SUPER48 Heavy Duty Retractable Key Holder, Belt Clip, 48" Kevlar Cord, 8-10 oz. Retraction Force, 15 keys
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002SQ9P5K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_JoABybNH6SG1R
> KEYBAK
ok here's a keybak for $5.8~ a piece
https://www.amazon.com/Key-Bak-Sidekick-Professional-Retracting-Retractable/dp/B01KOVMFYI/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1537588856&sr=8-4&keywords=keybak+retractable+keychain
I have a similar situation. I'm required to carry 2 cards - one of them is an ID that must be visible and has a magnetic stripe that must be swiped regularly, and the other is RFID that I must wave by a sensor to open doors.
I use these hard plastic ID card holders. They have a built in ejector tab, so it's very easy to slide a card out with one hand if you need to swipe it. Combine it with a retractable carabiner like this and you're set. They also make retractable cords that clip directly onto your belt without the carabiner if that's a preferable option for you.
try this it has a metal chain instead of a string
No worries! How about something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001P5Y08C
...or this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VQUUVW
As the guy who's responsible for the access control system on campus I can tell you that there are several reasons to require you to swipe in. One is to confirm that you are allowed to park there. Think intruder or terminated employee detection. Body count in case of fire, shooter or other emergency is another. We ask that the people monitoring the entrances, including parking, do a visual check on anyone entering. Zooming by the arm doesn't really allow them to do that.
I bought a retractable keyholder for my badge. That one extends 36 inches so I can pull it from my belt while still on the bike. Best $15 I ever spent.
Had that problem and I recently started using a carabiner. Just clip it right on to my belt loop, don't have to worry about it getting knocked off. I understand if you like the retractable thing so there is also this
I received one in the mail a few days ago. It sounds from your questions like a poor match for you.
It holds 15 bills. 14 is actually getting snug. 8 membership/credit cards with two of them showing (I have costco and another membership card on the outsides). Access to bills is very similar to a money clip...it keeps the bills very neatly folded and you can pull them out without taking the wallet out of your pocket, but you take out the entire wad, peel off the bills you need, then put the rest back. Fold them small denominations on the outside just like you would with a clip.
This may be too much detail....
I carry two wallets. One with ID, insurance, a single CC, and a bit of cash, stays in my pocket unless absolutely necessary. The other is for things I use more often; membership cards, spending cash, ATM card, CC, and so on. The reason should be obvious. I use a CountyComm LA wallet for the first. Years ago I used a WITZ ID case for the second, but the latches kept breaking. I switched to a generic nylon wallet for the second and that worked for years but was bulky. I switched to two LA wallets but that didn't give enough capacity. The EZGO is more of a no-moving-parts version of the WITZ than a conventional wallet...which is what I want. It is probably not what most people want.
So far the only iffy part is that the insert claims the wallet floats then tells you to save the small square of foam sheet that was in the bil pocket because that's what will make if float. OK, yeah, technically I'll give it to you, but most people are going to lose the sheet so why bother claiming it?
These seem to be pretty sturdy. There are a few negative reviews that give me pause, but overall people seem to like it.
Not clicky, but I'll just leave these ideas here and here
This is the industry standard. Kevlar wear/cut resistant cord and they hold a bit of weight before they start to unwind.

Anything that has like a spring that pulls back the line can work. ive seen people use those retractable lanyards or retractable dog leashes
Just a hook wouldnt work as the point is that the device "feeds you" cable when needed and takes it back when you dont.
I bought these:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M6EB8DM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Also, Here is a sketch of my play area, and you can see where i put the hooks.
https://i.imgur.com/tfzMhYZ.png
Also if you get the DAS (which i strongly recommend) here is a couple of pics on how i setted up the cables on the headset itself (just make sure they come out the back)
https://i.imgur.com/GDN03Tf.jpg
And just in case you decide to get the ceiling cable management i posted, i found out that doubling or tripling the retractable hooks gave me more freedom of movement, basically i feel the cable pulling me way less with more than 1 hook, like so: https://i.imgur.com/3sATB80.jpg
Also, if you use the ceiling things, id recommend cutting a couple of "stoppers" out of cardboard, these helped me A LOT because from time to time the hooks would join up, or change places and make it unconfortable, these "limits" fixed that by limiting where the hook movements.
https://i.imgur.com/MTtEYjN.jpg
Maybe something like this?
This might sound like a stupid solution but trust me it works we used it last year.
Take and run your string thru a barge holder and attach the badge hold on the opposite side of the robot. The badge holder will take up the slack and you will not have to worry about it. I will see if i can get a picture of the system working tonight.

I work at a national lab, so I assume similar security protocols. The guards need to physically touch the ID badge, so I doubt some sort of clear holder would be sufficient. Maybe something like this?

Fuel Card Holder with Key Ring
I was just thinking the same thing. Maybe something like this would work. Attach it to the passenger side visor and then the recoiler part to the middle of the cord.
I have an origami owl type pendant (where you can put charms in it) but its on a chain with a badge clip type thing at the end. (Like this - https://www.etsy.com/transaction/1169190544)
On the end of it, i have a badge holder (this item - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017TH4OLM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
I took it off the fabric lanyard and put it on the end of the pendant clip. I use the key ring that used to attach it to the fabric lanyard for keys.

I wouldn't hole punch your real id.... most places will take a photo copy, those that won't will very likely take your real, expired ID because they won't notice it's expired.... unless you hole punch it.

Attach your cutter to one of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002SQ9P5K/ref=twister_B01DLMK82S?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 it makes using your box cutter much simpler and faster. Your cutter will always be where you need it, and to put it back at your side you just let go of it. Considering how often you use your cutter, the little time savings will add up
Have the person who does the paper towel aisle save you 3 to 6 big boxes, maybe even more depending on the aisle, and use those to throw your trash into. Don't break down any of the card board trays like the ones the coffee comes in, for example, or any little small boxes like a spice comes in, just throw those in the box. That will save you time and energy, especially if you have a lot of them like on the vegetable aisle. Then when you have to bale your trash, you only have to throw a few big boxes in the baler instead of a bunch of small ones. Should save a little time there too.
There's always a bit of walking to the back room you have to do, maybe you forgot to grab something, or maybe you need to use the restroom. I use a 'bascart' to run back and forth to save energy and wear and tear on my knees. There's a bit of a trick to it if you don't know how to do it. You want to set your belly on the handle so that the cart is holding a lot of your weight. You're not holding yourself up with your arms, a lot of people try to do it like that. Then you just run. It's really fast and saves quite a bit of time, and it's easier on your body than walking back and forth through the night. *obviously use caution, especially turning around blind corners, and probably don't do it when customers are there.
My last tip, I guess, is more controversial, lol. Kroger doesn't like it when you spot stuff, and for some aisles they are right. Water aisle for example, would just be stupid to spot. But from my experience spotting is actually faster than working off the buggy, and the reason Kroger doesn't like spotting is because most of the desk jockeys that run Kroger have never stocked long term, and they don't understand how grinding stocking can be over time. If you spot correctly it will save you walking, it will save you from having to hold heavy boxes in your hand, and it will make getting up and down from a kneeling position faster and easier on your body. First, you want to set the buggy in the best spot on the aisle. Then spot the things that are close to you on the ground, and the things that are further away just slide them to their general location (as long as you can do that without damaging them). This will save a lot of walking back and forth from the shelf to the buggy. Once everything is spotted you do a more specific spotting on the things you slid, that way the aisle isn't a mess. When you're done it should look neat, not with boxes thrown everywhere. Then when it's time to start stocking set up what I call a "trash train". I set my bascart ahead of me and use that for misplaced items and my discarded plastic. Then I have by crate to stand on for stuff on the top shelf. Then behind me I pull an empty cart with my big paper towel boxes to throw my trash into. I start at the front of the aisle on one side and slowly move around the aisle until I'm done. The benefit of this method is everything you need, ie your crate and something to separate your trash into, is right by you at all times. When you need to stock something on a high shelf you can set it up on the buggy handle and not have to strain your back, also allowing you to easily use two hands. Furthermore, for items on the bottom shelf getting up and down from that position can be taxing over time, but with your crate by you and your buggy you can use those to help you up.
Developing this approach over time, my case count went up from around 60 per hour to 80 cases per hour, and if I have to I can sprint stock over 90 an hour. (Edit: That's the other benefit of this method I forgot to mention, it seems to be easier to get in a really fast flow, where as stocking from the cart it's hard to reach those really high numbers). Despite working significantly faster than the "official" Kroger method, I quit having a constantly soar back. Good luck.
I got tired of string on mine fraying and then breaking all the time, and I was worried that I'd end up losing my pass cards that I keep in them.
I ended up switching these a few years ago:

They're bulkier than the kinds most people get, but they last a much longer time.
I used these and I'm very happy with how it feels. After fiddling with the setup I realized how important it was to have a pulley behind you.

Every item location tracker I've researched (Tile, Cube, Trackr, etc.) requires some monthly subscription fee and/or has reviews indicating design failure. Clearly this technology has some kinks to work out across the board before they're ready for everyday use. I even tried the BCKAKQA and discovered that it would disconnect from my phone for literally no reason at all, which would cause the alarm to panic.
I have eyeglass retainers for keeping my sunglasses around my neck and a retractable keychain that keeps my keys attached to my belt. I also have a chain that does the same for a travel wallet. (Use a leather hole punch to fasten the chain and wallet.) It makes me look fucking weird but hell it works.
Your drawing resembles the hose arm in the ceiling of a self-serve car wash. That’s just like the idea I had, and you know by now it doesn’t really exist for this application
I built something that’s pretty close. I think it works well and is easier to explain to guests than if I’d hung dog leashes from the ceiling
I bolted this adjustable lighting boom to a wall adjacent to my CPU about 8ft up, with two heavy duty retractable keyfobs attached...one at the tip, another at the baseplate. I recommend the 8oz; stronger versions pull too strongly on your head and neck
Definitely requires some time tinkering with many variables to maximize reach, minimize tension, and prevent damage to anything attached or within its range of motion
Good luck

Here you go the shirt was just from my local hot topic though
I can't think of anything designed to go with a closed door hinge. However, if you have a smooth metal door, can you use a portable handicap suction mounted handgrip stuck to the door? Just an idea to consider.
The only other thing I can think of is to see if they'll allow the installation of a support grip just outside the door that's short like this as long as you bought it and agreed to pay for the install, (as well as the removal when you leave - I think that's required when the modification is reversible), unless you get a waiver in writing, of course, before moving.
The only other thought I have is to use a retractible leash for your keys that you can attach to your clothing, or bag, like this so that your keys are not attached to your cane for the purpose of getting indoors. I'd say, use the key leash, hook to your belt or bag strap, and do it that way.
I got the clear version of this thing from the BX and put it in my left jacket pocket. Go into neutral rolling up pull it out and gtg.

When i bartended, we all had a couple of these retractable lanyards attached to our belt loops. We'd attach a bottle opener to one, and on the other, we'd take the rubber tip off the mini brooms and attach them to the keyring. You could shove a lighter into the broomhole, and BOOM, retractable lighter for your smoking patrons. Of course, this was back when people could still smoke in bars.
After doing a #2, I stood up and hit the flush lever. As I reached over to hit the button, I managed to bump my work badge & spring reel off my belt, watch it fall into the toilet, and then flush down.
Had to explain to security where my badge was. They had "If found, please drop in any mailbox postage guaranteed" on the back if it. I'm glad that I never got it back.

Don't buy from those price gougers in the OP, 26 fucking dollars for 6 retractable wires, jesus christ.

There's 5 of what is essentially the same thing for 8 bucks.
Those retractable key ring things suck and break easily. If you want something that will last a while get a Key Bak
Better quality string and better retraction mechanism. Claims it will pull 4 oz so good for any light op would need.
I've been thinking about getting [this] (https://www.amazon.com/RamPro-Heavy-Duty-Retractable-Chain-Stainless/dp/B00416DLOQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1469472222&sr=8-2&keywords=retracting+belt+clip+keychain) so I'd never forget. maybe clip it to my jacket.

Cheapest thing would have to be this
Just get one of these bad boys and a ceiling hook. No more dragging and MUCH less likely to tangle as you move since it retracts when you give it slack but is too weak to pull on you in any noticeable way.
Great list and thanks for adding the photo. I'm about to use this since I already have two and they're waterproof. I'll post when everything comes in and I get it together.

I've been using one of these for over a year with no problems.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002SQ9P5K/ref=psdcmw_12900971_t1_B0039YY2QM
Key-Bak SUPER48 - lightweight, well made, strong retractable kevlar line and sturdy pocket clip.
I clip it directly on my belt, somewhere between my front and back pocket (depending on where the belt loops are on my pants).
I also use one of those pull apart key rings for my car key (and any other things that need more than momentary use), and keep a spare on the main part of the Key-Bak. That way my keys never actually leave my person.
I just put the whole bundle of keys etc in my back pocket, and it stays put and quiet. The line stays retracted even with a good amount of weight, so it doesn't hang any lower than you need it to.
That's my system, good luck on finding yours!
L O L. I’ve been using this and it’s been working perfectly. Definitely still overpriced, but seems well built, and will hopefully last a while.
I got this one from Amazon. I've had it for about 6 months now and it's real solid.
Just hang these badge reels from some drop ceiling hooks.
Favorite animal would probably be a Velociraptor. Because they're neat-o.
I would really like this lanyard (available for $4.50 + Free Shipping from one or two sellers).

I got this and it works amazing. Not the cheapes but will pay off in about 2000 cards or something like that ;)
As a delivery man trying to move as fast as possible, I have locked my keys in many times.... I have found a solution, though. Get a Keybak retractor: https://www.amazon.com/KEY-BAK-SUPER48-Retractable-Polycarbonate-Oversized/dp/B002SQ9P5K/ref=pd_sbs_229_t_0/145-3253223-8232768?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B002SQ9P5K&pd_rd_r=beba2bae-2d88-477a-a91a-1a4e0aa73a9a&pd_rd_w=FACV5&pd_rd_wg=gp7UY&pf_rd_p=5cfcfe89-300f-47d2-b1ad-a4e27203a02a&pf_rd_r=Z6YE4JAYMAADKSA25TZN&psc=1&refRID=Z6YE4JAYMAADKSA25TZN
then keep another spare key on your belt loop on a caribeener. It's literally impossible to lock yourself out, if you have both keys on you. It is possible for the retractor key to get stuck on the seatbelt receptable as you slam the door shut and locked, however... That's what the second key is for. I haven't locked my keys inside with this method ever.
Heavy duty one from Amazon. I also work in peds and it has lasted a year so far.

have you heard of retracted keychain leash?
https://www.amazon.com/Heavy-Duty-Retractable-Chain-Stainless-Cable/dp/B00416DLOQ
get your PSVR box behind TV, then put 2 of such leashes on the ceiling, when you play - retract and put cable in anchors, it will get enough suspension, you need no cable on your shoulder.Do some design.
I just cannot understand how you guys enjoy your play, while always touching this square box right on your feet.
Also, you may want to look into a retractable key holder. Attach it to your belt or something.
Or put something on your keychain that you need inside the house. (I can't think of specifically what, though.)
its under $15 on amazon. for that price I am going to give one a try

That's an option. There are more on Amazon like it
If you're going to buy a badge holder, I highly recommend Key-Bak. They make extremely durable badge holders, unlike all the others that only last about a year before falling apart. They're available on Amazon too if you want it in two days.
For the reel... some Key Baks are bulky - this one is unobtrusive: KEY-BAK Orignal Series Retractable Reel with 48 inch Kevlar Cord, Black Front, Steel Belt Clip, 8 oz. Retraction, Split Ring https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00506XUC4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_5CpoybTX10JGP
I use retractable badge holders (in the same aisle as paper clips and such at Wal Mart, in 3-packs for $2) zip-tied to the top of the bong, with another zip tie securing a lighter. You can just let go of it when you're done, and it's always in the same place.
It was only after I started using these that I ever used up the butane in a Bic lighter; I usually lost them weeks before they'd run out :D.

Invest in a good stethoscope from the beginning. I have a Littman 2 and it's awesome. Don't waste your money or time on a cheap one. You can also get a lab value badge clips or one of these handy clip boards.
I'll one up you. I have a retractable clip on card and key holder that holds two cards (credit and ID) like this. Much easier since then I never have to take it off every time I use my keys, and it allows me to get rid of my wallet most of the time too. Plus if its making too much noise or looks like shit I can stuff it into my pocket.
I have used two of these for over a year and they work great.

One is where the wall and ceiling meet above my PC, and the other is in the center of the room attached to a ceiling light.
I go with pepper gel and keep it on this for quick and easy access.
