keyholder
Ring for openers
A keyholder is someone entrusted with keys to a building, business, or secure area, typically an employee authorized to open and close premises or access restricted spaces.
In retail and service industries, keyholders often occupy a supervisory role between regular staff and management.
In BDSM contexts, a keyholder controls access to a chastity device worn by a partner, holding literal and symbolic power over their sexual release.
