Transponder Keys

Instead of flat metal keys that operate mechanically with cuts on the top and bottom transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys are equipped with an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When the key is inserted into an automobile that uses transponder tech the chip transmits an unintentional message to a receiver near the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to begin, in the event that it has been programmed for it. Transponder chips are made to prevent car theft, which is why most modern vehicles have them.

During World War II, coded messages were sent over radio frequencies to determine if an aircraft was hostile or friendly. The same idea was later applied to car keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip keys in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they've become standard on most new cars, and can also be retrofitted into older models.

If you own a car equipped with this type of security system, it is recommended to always keep an extra transponder keys on hand, since it only works only if the chip has been scanned correctly.

Proximity keys

Proximity Keys are among the latest keyless entry innovations that are becoming popular in a variety vehicles. The key fob can be carried in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob communicates with the vehicle, removing immobilisers from the vehicle and allows it to begin.

However proximity key systems come with some disadvantages. If the key fob is damaged or lost, it can't be used to start the car. A locksmith or a dealership will need to replace it, which could be costly. The fobs are also powered by batteries, so they'll have to be periodically replaced.

The proximity key technology has the disadvantage of breaking the cause and effect cycle we are used to when using physical keys. If you use a conventional key and the lock opens, you know 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 drawbacks however, proximity keys are an amazing invention for those who do not want to lock themselves out of their car. If you have a proximity key, make sure you always keep a backup key on hand in case of emergency. Contact your local Pop-Alock for a quote on the services and costs.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of storing keys in the home are over and landlords can provide tenants with greater security by installing a keyless entry system. These systems are connected to a back-end program and permit the landlord to monitor entry and exit. In addition, these systems make it simpler for tenants to access the property in case an emergency.

A keyless entry system works by transmitting encrypted signals an internal receiver within the car. The receiver then responds to the signal and either unlocks or starts the engine. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust the car's settings according to their preferences. For instance, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will recognize this and shut the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems may be prone to attacks, even though they are generally very safe. For example, a replay attack is when the initial remote control signal is recorded and sent back to the device at a later time. This can be avoided by creating an algorithm for the keyless entry system that ensures every transmission is different from the previous ones.

Keyless entry systems also has the advantage that it doesn't require changing locks every when a tenant moves out. It is expensive to change locks after every tenant turnover and it is therefore sensible that landlords cut down on this expense as much as they can. Additionally, with a keyless entry system all that is needed is resetting the code which is a lot faster and less costly than replacing the entire lock.
