By using the Key Holder, a second person for organ tuning is no longer required. By the time it takes to teach a typically non-trained person, the Key Holder is already up and running.
Anyone who has ever been a Key Holder himself, knows best what that means:
- Ones free time is sacrificed and depending on the degree of help required, partial or full tuning, this could take hours – or longer!
- In the beginning it may hold some interest, but in the long run it gets tiring.
It is not surprising that finding such helpers is becoming increasingly difficult. In times when responsibilities often change, scheduling an appointment does not get any easier either:
Certain factors need to be taken into consideration – is the organ tuner available and is the church open and free to be worked in? – this is already complex enough.
And then the Key Holder is unable to attend...
In this scenario, the whole planning starts again.
With the Key Holder, the organ builder not only works independently, but can also plan more freely.
He has no loss of time due to change of staff. The Key Holder takes breaks as instructed by the organ builder.
