Just because there isn't an explicit scene in the book where Harry 
gives Mrs. Weasley the key or some kind of formal permission to enter 
his vault, doesn't neccessarily mean that such an occurance didn't 
happen. 

To have such a scene doesn't really advance the plot. I suspect that 
JKR had to make extensive cuts to GoF just to get it to its present 
length.
