Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau that translates to responder and transmitter) contain an electronic chip in their heads. When they are placed in a car that is equipped with transponder technology the chip transmits 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 cause the engine to start. Transponder chips were designed to stop car thieves from stealing cars This is the reason they are used in most modern vehicles.

Transponder technology was first used in World War II, when coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine if the aircraft that was incoming was friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, most new vehicles come equipped with these keys, and they're 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 can only function properly if it is scanned. It isn't foolproof. There are some who have discovered ways to trick the system. There are kits and tutorials explaining how to bypass the transponder with electrical relays and wires.

Proximity Keys

Proximity Keys are one of the newest keyless entry technology that is becoming popular in a variety of vehicles. They allow drivers to unlock their car by merely touching the door handle with the key fob, which is kept in their pocket or bag. The key fob connects to the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers, and permitting it to start.

There are some disadvantages to proximity key systems though. If the key fob gets damaged or lost, it is unable to be used to start your vehicle. It's costly to get a locksmith replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll need to be replaced regularly.

Another disadvantage of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause/effect process we're familiar with when using physical keys. With a traditional key, when you press the lock and it opens, you know that you have the key. You'll have to be within a specific distance to activate the proximity-sensing lock.

Despite their downsides, proximity key technology is a great invention for drivers who aren't looking to lock themselves out of their car. In case of emergency, make sure you have an additional key on hand if you have a proximity-key. Contact your local Pop-A Lock for a quote on the services and costs.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys outside of the home are long gone and landlords can provide tenants with greater security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are synced with back-end software that allows the landlord to monitor the process of entry and exit. In addition these systems make it easier for tenants to access the property in the event an emergency.

Keyless entry systems transmit encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver interprets the signal, unlocks your car or starts it. It also detects a driver's presence and adjust the settings of the vehicle according to their preferences. For instance, if the driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will be able to detect this and then automatically shut the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems may be prone to attacks, even though they're generally very secure. A replay attack, for example, is when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded and sent again at a later date. This can be prevented by incorporating an algorithm into the keyless entry system, which ensures that each transmission is unique from the previous one.

A keyless entry system also offers the benefit of not having to does not require you to replace the locks every time a tenant is moved out. It's expensive to replace locks after every tenant turnover and therefore it is sensible that landlords try to avoid this expense as much as possible. Furthermore, with a keyless entry system, all that is required is resetting the code, which is much faster and easier than replacing the entire lock.
