Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) include an electronic chip within their heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that is equipped with transponder technology the chip sends an low-level signal to the receiver close to the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to start, when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are designed to prevent car theft and that is why the majority of modern cars have them.

In World War II, coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was hostile or friendly. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, the majority of new cars come with keys that have transponder chips, and they are also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to include the transponder chip.

If your car is equipped with this kind of security, you should always carry a spare key on hand, as the chip can only function effectively if it's scanned. This isn't 100% secure. There are some who have discovered ways to trick the system. They come with kits and tutorials on how to bypass the transponder with electrical relays and wires.

Proximity keys

Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technology, and are becoming popular on a variety vehicles. They allow drivers to unlock their car by merely touching the door handle using the key fob that is in their purse or pocket. The key fob connects to the vehicle, removing immobilisers from the vehicle and allows it to start.

There are some disadvantages to proximity key systems though. If the key fob is lost or damaged it isn't able to start the car. It's expensive to get a locksmith replace it. Batteries also provide power to the fobs. So they'll need to be replaced frequently.

The proximity key technology also has the disadvantage of removing the cause-and-effect cycle we are used to when using physical keys. When you use a traditional key and the lock opens, you are aware that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys, you'll have to be within a certain distance from the car to activate it.

Despite their downsides the proximity key technology is an amazing tool for drivers who don't want to lock themselves out of their car. In case of emergency, keep an emergency key with you if you have a proximity-key. Contact your local Pop A Lock store to get a quote for services and prices.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding a spare key outside the home are over and landlords can offer tenants better security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are connected to a back-end program and permit the landlord to monitor entry and exit. Additionally, 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.

Keyless entry systems work by transmitting encrypted signals to the car's receiver. The receiver detects the signal and then unlocks or starts the engine. It also can detect the presence of an individual driver and adjust settings to suit their preferences. For instance, if the driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will recognize this and close the doors.

While the majority of keyless entry systems are extremely secure, some are vulnerable to attack. A replay attack, for example occurs when the remote control signal from the device is recorded and transmitted to a different location at a later time. However, this can be thwarted by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm that ensures that every transmission is distinct from the previous ones.

A keyless entry system offers the benefit that it does not require you to replace locks every when a tenant moves out. This is a significant cost of the unit turnover process and it is sensible for landlords to save money whenever it is possible. With a keyless lock, all you need to do is reset the code. This is much quicker and easier than replacing the lock.
