Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau for responder and transmitter) are equipped with an electronic chip inside their heads. When they are placed in a car that uses transponder technology, the chip sends an unintentional signal to a receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to send this signal it will trigger the engine to switch on. Transponder chips are designed to prevent car theft which is why a majority of modern vehicles have them.

Transponder technology was first used in World War II, when coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine whether aircraft incoming were friendly or hostile. The same idea was later applied to car keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, most new cars are equipped with keys that have transponder chips, and they are also popular for older models that are retrofitted to include the transponder chip.

If your car has this kind of security, then you should always carry a spare key, as the chip will only work properly if it is scanned. However, this isn't completely foolproof and some people have discovered ways to evade the transponder system, including 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 technologies, which are becoming more popular in a variety of vehicles. The key fob is stored in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob communicates with the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers, and allowing it to start.

There are some disadvantages to proximity key systems though. If the key fob gets damaged or lost, it can't be used to start your vehicle. It can be costly to find a locksmith or a dealership to replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll have to be replaced regularly.

The proximity key technology has the disadvantage of breaking the cause and effect cycle we are used to when using physical keys. In the case of a traditional lock, when you press the lock and it opens, you know you have the key. You'll have to be within a specific distance to activate proximity-sensing key.

Despite these downsides, proximity keys are a fantastic option for those who wish to avoid locking themselves out their cars. If you have a proximity key, it is recommended to always keep a backup in the event of an emergency. Contact your local Pop-A Lock to get a quote for services and costs.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys in the home are long gone, and landlords can provide tenants with better security by installing a keyless entry system. These systems sync to back-end software, allowing the landlord to monitor entry and exit. These systems also help tenants in a situation of crisis to access the property.

Keyless entry works by transmitting encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver then responds to the signal and either unlocks or starts the engine. It also can detect the presence of an individual driver and adjust the vehicle settings to suit their preferences. For instance, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will be able to detect this and shut the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems may be prone to attacks, even though they are generally very safe. For instance replay attacks occur when the original remote control signal is recorded and transmitted to the device at a later date. This can be avoided by adding an algorithm to the keyless entry system to ensure that every transmission is distinct from the previous one.

Another benefit of the keyless entry system is that it does not require changing locks after each tenant's departure. This is a significant cost of the process for converting units and it is sensible for landlords to avoid this expense whenever it is possible. Furthermore when using a keyless entry system all that is needed is to reset the code, which is faster and simpler than replacing the entire lock.
