Try `cryptsetup luksAddKey $device`.

It asks you to enter the old key and then lets you install an additional
one. You can later delete that second key. Please look at the man-page
for the necessary command.

BTW: Please don't top-post, e.g. put your response below the message you
are quoting (where I've moved your reply). That facilitates reading long
threads.

Hope this helps,
