Transponder Keys

Contrary to the flat metal keys which work mechanically using cuts on the top and bottom transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip in their key heads. When the key is put into an automobile equipped with transponder tech the chip sends an insignificant message to a receiver near the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to start, when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips were developed to prevent car thieves This is the reason they are used in most modern cars.

Transponder technology was first used in World War II, when encoded messages were sent over radio frequencies to determine whether incoming aircraft were friendly or hostile. The same concept was later applied to car keys in the form of General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they are used on the majority of new cars and are also retrofitted to older models.

If you own a car equipped with this type of security system, make sure you always have an extra transponder keys on hand, as it only works when the chip is read correctly. It isn't foolproof. Some people have found ways to fool the system. They include kits and tutorials explaining how to bypass the transponder by using wires and electrical relays.

Proximity Keys

Proximity keys are one of the most recent keyless entry technologies, which are becoming more popular on a number of vehicles. They let drivers unlock their cars by touching the door handle using the key fob that is in their pocket or bag. The key fob then connects to the car, removing the immobiliser, allowing the engine to start.

However proximity key systems have certain disadvantages. If the key fob becomes damaged or lost, it can't be used to start your car. It's costly to find a locksmith or a dealership to replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, which means they'll need to be replaced periodically.

Another drawback of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause/effect cycle we're all familiar with when using physical keys. When using a traditional key, it's when you press the lock and it opens, you know that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys, you'll have to be within a certain distance of the vehicle to activate it.

Despite these downsides they are a fantastic option for drivers who want avoid locking themselves out their vehicles. If you have a proximity key, make sure you always keep a backup key on hand in the event of an emergency. Contact your local Pop A Lock store for a quote on the services and prices.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of storing keys outside of the home are long gone and landlords can now provide tenants with better security by installing an entry system that is keyless. These systems sync with back-end software, allowing landlords to track the entry and exit of tenants. In addition, these systems make it easier for tenants to access the property in case there is a need to enter the property in case of emergency.

A keyless entry system operates by transmitting encrypted signals the car's receiver. The receiver reads the signal and opens or turns off your car. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust vehicle settings to suit their preferences. For example, if the driver is carrying a bag in their hands, the system will recognize this and close the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks, despite being very safe. For instance a replay attack occurs where the original remote control signal is recorded and sent back to the device at a later date. However, this could be prevented by incorporating into the keyless entry system an algorithm that ensures that every transmission is distinct from previous ones.

A keyless entry system also offers the advantage of being a keyless entry system that does not require you to replace locks every time a tenant is moved out. This is a costly part of the process for converting units, and it makes sense for landlords to avoid this expense as much as it is possible. With a keyless lock, all you need to do is reset the code. This is a lot faster and less costly than replacing the lock.
