Transponder Keys

Unlike flat metal keys that are mechanically operated with cuts on the top and bottom transponder (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) keys are equipped with an electronic microchip embedded in their key heads. When they are fitted into a car that is equipped with transponder technology the chip transmits a low-level signal to a receiver close to the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to begin, if it is programmed for it. Transponder chips were designed to protect cars from theft This is the reason they are used in most modern cars.

In World War II, coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was hostile or friendly. The same idea was later applied to keys for cars and keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they've been used on the majority of new vehicles, and can also be retrofitted to older models.

If you own a car with this type of security system, you should always keep an extra transponder key on hand, since it only works only if the chip has been scanned properly. However, this isn't completely foolproof and some have discovered methods to fool the transponder system, such as kits and tutorials that explain how to get around it using electrical relays and wiring.

Proximity keys

Proximity keys are the most recent technology for keyless entry that is becoming popular across a variety of vehicles. They let drivers unlock their cars by simply touching the door handle using the key fob in their pocket or bag. The key fob communicates with the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers, and allows it to start.

However proximity key systems do have some drawbacks. If the key fob is lost or damaged the fob isn't usable to start the vehicle. A locksmith or a dealership will have to replace it, and this can be expensive. Batteries also power the fobs, which means they'll need to be replaced periodically.

Another disadvantage of proximity key technology is that it breaks the cause-and-effect loop we're used to with physical keys. When using a traditional key, when you touch the lock and it opens, you'll know that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys you'll need to be within a certain distance from the vehicle to activate it.

Despite their limitations however, proximity keys are a great invention for drivers who do not want to lock themselves out of their car. In the event of an emergency, always have a backup key handy if you own a proximity key. If you require a replacement key, contact the local Pop-A Lock to inquire about prices for replacements and also to request a quotation for services.

Keyless Entry Systems

These systems are synchronized with back-end software that allows landlords to monitor the process of entry and exit. These systems are linked to back-end software, which allows landlords to keep track of access and exit. These systems also help tenants in situation of crisis to access the property.

Keyless entry systems work by sending encrypted signals to a receiver inside the car. The receiver interprets the signal and opens or starts the engine. It also detects a driver's presence and adjust the car's settings in accordance with their preferences. It will shut the door if, for example, the driver has bags in his hands.

While most keyless entry systems are incredibly secure, some are susceptible to attacks. For example the term replay attack refers to where the original remote control signal is recorded, and then sent back to the device at a later point. However, this could be prevented by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm that guarantees that each transmission is distinct from all previous ones.

A keyless entry system offers the benefit that it does not require you to replace the locks each time a tenant moves out. This is a cost-effective part of the unit turnover process and it is logical for landlords to avoid this expense whenever it is possible. Furthermore with a keyless access system the only thing that is required is resetting the code, which is faster and simpler than replacing the entire lock.
