You introduce a brass key and a coin. You then tell your audience that you will give them $100 if they can push the coin through the hole in the key. After the audience tries and realizes it’s impossible, the magician offers to show them how. With just a rub, the hole in the key magically stretches ten times in size to become a coin-sized slot. The magician can then easily drop the coin through the key before shrinking the hole to its normal size. Everything is examinable.

Gatekeeper is a completely self-contained effect that uses simple sleight of hand to accomplish this amazing trick. The props are custom-made to Craig’s exact specifications and perfectly match the Key Master set, so your routine possibilities are limitless. Gatekeeper is ready to go out of the box. Unlock astonishment when you perform Gatekeeper by Craig Petty.

Keymaster keeps on giving Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 3rd, 2023
I really love this trick. I have not received the product yet, but I have got the tutorial and the method is close enough to one of the original Keymaster effects that I feel confident giving this huge praise. If you do not already own Keymaster (get it!) this will still kill as a stand-alone effect. If you do own Keymaster, you already know how great of a trick it is and this just adds another impossible moment to a minor miracle.

Gatekeeper also has one of the best, to the point, and well produced tutorials I have seen penguin ever put out. It is not terribly long, but it does not need to be. In fact, I would say it is the perfect length for the trick. The angles, quality and instructions are really top notch.

Craig and Penguin Magic really unlocked a treasure with this one!

The perfect expansion to Keymaster Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 14th, 2023
If you perform Keymaster, Gatekeeper is just a natural extension for the routine. They keys look perfect alongside the Keymaster set & the routine for Gatekeeper can even be performed as a great solo routine for shorter performances!

Perfect EDC Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 14th, 2023
There’s lots of tricks around that claim to be an EDC, this is a key, it doesn’t get much more EDC than that. If you’ve already got key master this is a no brainier, it fits perfectly into your already polished routine, if you haven’t, it’s a great stand alone trick.

I’m not great at sleight of hand but picked this up super quick and it’s so impactful. Great for an actual close up gig and fantastic as an impromptu trick to my mates when I’m out.

Takes up no space at all and blows people away, awesome trick

Fantastic! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 9th, 2023
I have enjoyed playing around with this gimmick very much. I started coming up with my own handling before seeing the video instruction, just for fun, but the video instruction was all the more brilliant since you could tell that it was informed by performing as well as by lots of clever thinking. I am fairly versed in coin magic, but I loved that some of the handling here is not just a coin move, but an actual handling specific to keys. There's also a handling that is similar to coins that is less visual but more engaging. So, you get to choose. I loved this very much.

An organic constant carry! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on October 15th, 2023
Simple techniques at use here for an amazing effect. Keys are heavy and well made. If you find yourself constantly practicing your palming techniques, this is great to have in your pocket. You can use a recommended coin, folded bill, or even another key.

GateKeeper is a Keeper Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 29th, 2023
The keys are well made and the trick is easy enough to perform. You will have to practice as this is slight of hand and no gimmicks, but the payoff is well worth it.

Great reactions.

Best,
TMC

Seamlessly melts into keymaster Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 28th, 2023
Hi,

I really love this effect and it advances the keymaster seamlessly. Especially, if you're not wanting to do the rope part of the project (due to any reason) you'll have a tool at hand to extend and then transition over to your coin sets' tricks!
