Transponder Keys

Unlike flat metal keys that operate mechanically by cutting the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) keys are equipped with an electronic microchip embedded in their key heads. When they are fitted into a car which uses transponder technology the chip transmits a low-level signal to a receiver located close to the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to send this signal, it will cause the engine to switch on. Transponder chips were developed to prevent car thieves and that is why they are found in the majority of modern automobiles.

During World War II, coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine if an aircraft was friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, they are used on the majority of new cars, and can also be retrofitted into older models.

If you have a car with this type of security system, you should always keep an extra transponder key at hand, as it will only work only if the chip has been scanned properly. This is not foolproof. Some people have found ways to trick this system. They include kits and tutorials explaining how to bypass the transponder by using electrical relays and wires.

Proximity keys

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

There are some disadvantages with proximity key systems though. If the key fob is damaged or lost the fob isn't usable to start the car. A locksmith or a dealership will have to replace it, which could be costly. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll need to be changed regularly.

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

Despite these downsides, proximity keys are a great option for those who want to avoid locking themselves out of their vehicles. If you have a proximity key, it is recommended to always have a backup key in case of emergency. Contact your local Pop-Alock for a quote on the services and costs.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding a spare key outside the home are long gone and landlords can provide tenants with greater security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are synchronized with back-end software, which allows the landlord to monitor entry and exit. These systems also help tenants in a situation of crisis to access the property.

A keyless entry system transmits encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver then interprets the signal and unlocks or starts the engine. It can also detect a driver's presence and adjust the vehicle settings according to their preferences. For example, if a driver is carrying a bag in their hands, it will recognize this and automatically close the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks despite being extremely secure. A replay attack, for instance is when the remote control signal from the device is recorded, and then transmitted again at a later date. However, this could be stopped by adding to the keyless entry system a method which ensures that each transmission is different from all previous ones.

Another advantage of a keyless entry system is that it does not require changing locks after each tenant's turnover. This is a costly part of the unit turnover process, and it makes sense for landlords to avoid this expense as much as possible. Moreover, with a keyless entry system all that is required is to reset the code, which is much faster and less expensive than replacing the entire lock.
