Transponder Keys

In contrast to flat metal keys that operate mechanically by cutting the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When they are placed in a car that has transponder technology, the chip transmits a low-level signal to a receiver that is located near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to send this signal it will cause the engine to switch on. Transponder chips are made to protect cars from theft, which is why most modern cars have them.

Transponder technology was first used during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted on radio frequencies to determine if aircraft incoming were friendly or hostile. The same idea was later applied to car keys as well, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they've been present on all new vehicles, and can also be retrofitted into older models.

If your car is equipped with this security feature, you must always have an extra key, as the chip can only function effectively if it's scanned. This is not foolproof. There are some who have discovered ways to trick the system. These kits include tutorials that explain how to disable the transponder by using electrical relays and wires.

Proximity keys

Proximity keys are the newest keyless entry technology, and are becoming popular in a variety of vehicles. They allow drivers to unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle using the key fob, which is kept in their bag or pocket. The key fob then connects to the car, removing the immobiliser and allowing for the engine to begin.

A locksmith or the dealership will have to replace it, and this can be expensive. The fobs are also powered by batteries, and so they'll require to be replaced regularly.

Another drawback of proximity keys technology is that it disrupts the cause/effect process we're familiar with when using physical keys. When using a traditional key, when you touch the lock and it opens, you'll know that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys, you'll need to be within a certain distance from the car to activate it.

Despite their limitations the proximity key technology is an excellent invention for drivers who aren't looking to lock themselves out of their vehicle. In case of emergency, always have an extra key in case you own a proximity key. Contact your local Pop-A-Lock for a quote on the services and costs.

A keyless entry system transmits encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver receives the signal and unlocks or begins your car. It can also detect the presence of drivers and adjust the vehicle settings to suit their preferences. For example, if the driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will recognize this and then automatically shut the doors.

While most keyless entry systems are secure, some are vulnerable to attacks. For example replay attacks occur when the initial remote control signal is recorded, and then repeated to the device at a later point. However, this could be prevented by incorporating into the keyless entry system an algorithm that guarantees that each transmission is distinct from all previous ones.

Keyless entry also offers the benefit of not having to does not require you to replace the locks every when a tenant leaves.
