Transponder Keys

Contrary to the flat metal keys which are mechanically operated with cuts on the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip within their key heads. When the key is put into a vehicle that utilizes transponder tech it sends an informational low-level message to the receiver located near the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start if it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are designed to guard against theft of cars This is the reason that most modern cars use them.

Transponder technology was first introduced during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted on radio frequencies to determine whether aircraft incoming were friendly or hostile. The same idea was later used to create car keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, most new vehicles come equipped with keys that have transponder chips, and they are also popular for older models that are retrofitted to include the transponder chip.

If your vehicle has this kind of security, then you should always carry a spare key on hand, as the chip will only work properly if it is scanned. It isn't foolproof. Some people have found ways to trick the system. These kits include tutorials explaining how to bypass the transponder by using wires and electrical relays.

Proximity keys

Proximity Keys are the newest technology for keyless entry that is becoming popular in a variety of vehicles. They let drivers unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle using the key fob that is in their purse or pocket. The key fob connects to the vehicle, removing immobilisers from the vehicle and allows it to start.

However proximity key systems come with certain disadvantages. If the key fob is damaged or lost, it cannot be used to start your car. It can be costly to get a locksmith replace it. The fobs are also powered by batteries, so they'll need to be replaced from time to time.

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

Despite these downsides, proximity keys are a great innovation for drivers who want to prevent locking themselves out of their cars. If you own a proximity key, make sure you always keep a backup on hand in case of emergency. If you need a replacement key, call the local Pop-A Lock to inquire about replacement costs and to request a quote for services.

A keyless entry system operates by transmitting encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver interprets the signal, unlocks your car or starts it. It also can detect the presence of drivers and adjust the vehicle settings to accommodate their preferences. It will automatically shut the door, for instance the driver is carrying an item in his hand.

Certain keyless entry systems can be vulnerable to attacks, even though they're generally very safe. A replay attack, for instance occurs when the remote control signal from the device is recorded and transmitted again at a later time. However, this can be stopped by adding to the keyless entry system a method that guarantees that each transmission is distinct from previous ones.

Another advantage of keyless entry systems is that it doesn't require changing locks after every tenant turnover. It is expensive to change locks for every tenant turnover and therefore it is sensible that landlords cut down on this expense as much as is possible.
