Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) have an electronic chip in their heads. When the key is put into a vehicle equipped with transponder technology, the chip sends out an informational low-level message to the receiver that is located near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to send this signal, it will cause the engine to start. Transponder chips are made to protect cars from theft and that is why the majority of modern vehicles have them.

In World War II, coded messages were sent over radio frequencies in order to determine whether an aircraft 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, the majority of new cars are equipped with these keys, and they're also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to include them.

If your car is equipped with this security feature, you must always have a spare key, as the chip can only function properly if it's been scanned. But this isn't 100% secure and some people have discovered ways to evade the transponder system. This includes tutorials and kits that describe 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. The key fob is stored in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob connects to the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers and allows it to start.

However, proximity key systems have some drawbacks. If the key fob is damaged or lost, it cannot be used to start your car. A locksmith or the dealership will need to replace it, and this can be expensive. The fobs are also powered by batteries, so they'll need to be replaced regularly.

The proximity key technology has the disadvantage of breaking the cause-and-effect cycle that we are all used to when using physical keys. When you use a traditional key and the lock opens, you are aware that you have the key. You'll need to be within a specified distance to activate proximity-sensing key.

Despite these downsides the proximity keys are a fantastic option for those who want to avoid locking themselves out of their cars. If you own a proximity key, it is recommended to always have a backup key in case of emergency. If you require a new key, contact your local Pop-A-Lock store to inquire about replacement costs and to receive a price for services.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys in the home are over and landlords can give tenants more security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are synced to a back-end program and permit landlords to track entry and exit. These systems also help tenants who are in crisis to enter the property.

Keyless entry works by transmitting encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver interprets the signal, unlocks or begins your car. It can also detect a driver's presence and adjust the vehicle settings in accordance with their preferences. For example, if the driver is carrying bags in their hands, the system will recognize this and close the doors.

Some keyless entry systems can be prone to attacks, despite being extremely secure. A replay attack, for example occurs when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded, and then transmitted again at a later date. However, this can be prevented by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm that ensures each transmission differs from all previous ones.

Another advantage of a keyless entry system is that it does not require changing locks after every tenant turnover. This is a cost-effective part of the process of transferring units, and it makes sense for landlords to avoid this expense whenever feasible. Furthermore, with a keyless entry system, all that is required is resetting the key, which is a lot faster and easier than replacing the entire lock.
