Transponder Keys

Unlike flat metal keys that operate mechanically with cuts on the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When the key is put into a vehicle equipped with transponder tech the chip transmits an informational low-level message to the receiver that is located near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to do so it will cause the engine to start. Transponder chips were developed to deter car thieves This is the reason they are present in a majority of modern cars.

Transponder technology was first introduced during World War II, when encoded messages were sent over radio frequencies to determine whether incoming aircraft were friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, all new vehicles come equipped with these keys, and they're also popular for older models that can be retrofitted with the transponder chip.

If you own a car equipped with this type of security system, make sure you always have a spare transponder key on hand, since 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. These kits include tutorials that explain how to disable the transponder with wires and electrical relays.

Proximity Keys

Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technologies, which are now being used on a variety vehicles. The key fob is put 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 a few drawbacks to proximity key systems though. If the key fob gets damaged or lost, it is unable to be used to start your car. A locksmith or the dealership will have to replace it, and this can be expensive. The fobs are also powered by batteries, meaning they'll have to be periodically replaced.

Another drawback of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause/effect cycle we're all familiar with when it comes to physical keys. If you're using a traditional key and the lock opens, you are aware that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys you'll need to be within a certain distance of the vehicle to activate it.

Despite these limitations, proximity keys are a great innovation for those who want to keep themselves from locking out of their vehicles. If you have a proximity key, it is recommended to always keep a backup on hand in the event of an emergency. Contact your local Pop-Alock for a quote on the services and costs.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys that are not in the home are long gone, and landlords can provide tenants with better security by installing an entry system that is keyless. These systems sync to back-end programs and allow landlords to keep track of entry and exit. These systems also aid tenants in a crisis to enter the property.

A keyless entry system works by sending encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver then interprets the signal and unlocks or starts the engine. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust the vehicle's settings according to their preferences. It will shut the door in the event that, for instance the driver has an item in his hand.

Certain keyless entry systems may be vulnerable to attacks despite being very secure. For example replay attacks occur when the remote control signal is recorded, and then sent back to the device at a later time. However, this can be prevented by incorporating into the keyless entry system an algorithm which ensures that each transmission is different from previous ones.

A keyless entry system also offers the benefit that it doesn't require you to change the locks each when a tenant leaves. It's expensive to replace locks for every tenant turnover and it is therefore sensible that landlords try to avoid this expense as much as possible. With a keyless system, all you have to do is reset the code. This is a lot quicker and less costly than replacing the lock.
