Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau for transmitter and responder) include an electronic chip inside their heads. When inserted into a car that has transponder technology, the chip transmits an low-level signal to the receiver close to the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to transmit this signal it will trigger the engine to turn on. Transponder chips are designed to prevent car theft and that is why the majority of modern cars use them.

Transponder technology first came into use during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine if the aircraft that was incoming was friendly or hostile. The same idea was later applied to car keys as well, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in the year 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, transponder keys are used on the majority of new cars and are also retrofitted into older models.

If you own a vehicle that has this type of security system, make sure you always have a spare transponder key on hand, since it only works if the chip is scanned properly. But this isn’t 100% secure and some people have found ways to trick the transponder system. This includes tutorials and kits that describe how to bypass it using electrical relays and wiring.

Proximity Keys

Proximity keys are one of the most recent keyless entry technology, and are now being used on a number of vehicles. They permit drivers to unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle using the key fob in their pocket or bag. The key fob then communicates with the car, disengaging the immobiliser and allowing the engine to start.

However, proximity key systems have certain disadvantages. If the key fob is lost or damaged, it can’t be used to start the vehicle. A locksmith or dealership will need to replace it, and this can be expensive. The fobs are also powered by batteries, meaning they’ll have to be replaced regularly.

Another disadvantage of proximity key technology is that it breaks the cause-and-effect cycle that we’re familiar with when it comes to physical keys. With a traditional key if you touch the lock and it opens, you know you have the key. You must be within a specified distance to activate proximity-sensing key.

Despite these downsides they are a great option for those who wish to avoid locking themselves out of their cars. In case of emergencies, always keep an additional key on hand if you own a proximity key. Contact your local Pop-A Lock for a quote on the services and costs.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding a spare key outside the home are over, and landlords can provide tenants with better security by installing an entry system that is keyless. These systems sync to back-end software, allowing the landlord to monitor entry and exit. Additionally, these systems make it easier for tenants to enter the property in the event there is a need to enter the property in case of emergency.

A keyless entry system operates by transmitting encrypted signals to an internal receiver within the car. The receiver then interprets the signal and unlocks or starts the engine. It also can detect the presence of drivers and adjust the vehicle settings to accommodate their needs. For instance, if the driver is carrying a bag in their hands, the system will recognize this and automatically close the doors.

While most keyless entry systems are safe, some are vulnerable to attacks. A replay attack, for example occurs when the remote control signal from the device is recorded, and then transmitted again at a later point. However, this can be stopped by adding to the keyless entry system a method that guarantees that each transmission is distinct from the previous ones.

Another benefit of the keyless entry system is that it does not require changing locks after each tenant’s turnover. It can be costly to replace locks after every tenant turnover which is why it is recommended that landlords stay away from this expense as much as is possible. Furthermore when using a keyless entry system all that is needed is resetting the code which is much quicker and easier than replacing the entire lock.
