The experts at Skoda's technical department know how to safely unlock and lock your vehicle without a traditional key. The more modern systems confirm that the key is within range of the vehicle and that the button has been pressed.

The Kamiq is the first SUV by Skoda. It has a raised ride-height and VarioFlex seating that can be folded down, removed, or moved completely to make more space in the boot.

Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) contain an electronic chip in their heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that has transponder technology, the chip sends a low-level signal to a receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. This causes the engine to begin, in the event that it has been programmed for it. Transponder chips were created to deter car thieves which is why they are in use in many modern cars.

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

If your vehicle has this type of security, you must always have an extra key, as the chip can only function properly if it's been scanned. It's not foolproof. There are some who have discovered ways to trick the system. There are kits and tutorials explaining how to bypass the transponder with wires and electrical relays.

Proximity Keys

Proximity keys are the newest keyless entry technology, and are becoming popular on a variety vehicles. They let drivers unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle using the key fob that is in their bag or pocket. The key fob communicates with the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers and allows it to begin.

There are a few drawbacks for proximity key systems though. If the key fob is damaged or lost, it can't be used to start your car. It's costly to hire a locksmith or dealer to replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, which means they'll require replacing regularly.

Another drawback of proximity keys technology is that it disrupts the cause/effect cycle we're all used to with physical keys. If you use a conventional key and the lock opens, you know that you have the key. You must be within a certain distance to activate proximity-sensing key.

Despite their drawbacks, proximity key technology is a great invention for drivers who aren't looking to be locked out of their car. If you have a proximity key, you should always keep a backup in case of an emergency. Contact your local Pop-Alock to get a quote for services and prices.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding a spare key outside the home are long gone and landlords can now offer tenants better security by installing a keyless entry system. These systems are linked to back-end programs, allowing the landlord to monitor the process of entry and exit. In addition these systems make it simpler for tenants to get into the property in case an emergency.

A keyless entry system operates by transmitting encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver then interprets the signal and opens or starts the engine. It also can detect the presence of a driver and adjust vehicle settings to meet their needs. It will automatically shut the door in the event that, for instance the driver has an item in his bag.

Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks, even though they are generally extremely secure. For example a replay attack occurs where the original remote control signal is recorded and then sent again to the device at a later time. This can be prevented by adding an algorithm to the keyless entry system to ensure that each transmission is distinct from previous ones.

Another advantage of a keyless entry system is that it does not require changing locks after each tenant's departure. It's costly to change locks for every tenant turnover, so it makes sense that landlords cut down on this expense as much as is possible. With a keyless system, all you have to do is reset the code. This is a lot faster and less costly than replacing the lock.
