# About key conditions

In Locksmith, customer access is always granted using *keys* – simple statements that describe the conditions for access.

For example, one might have a key that says "Permit if the customer is signed in". In this example, the *key condition* is "if the customer is signed in".

A full list of key conditions can be found in our guide here:

[Creating keys](/basics/creating-keys.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

Read on in this section to find out more information about how to set up many of our most popular key condition types.
