The experts at Skoda's technical department know how to securely unlock and lock your vehicle with no traditional key. The newer systems check the keys are within a certain range of the car and it was activated through a button press.

Transponder Keys
Transponder keys (a portmanteau for responder and transmitter) contain an electronic chip inside their heads. When the key is inserted into an automobile equipped with transponder technology the chip transmits an insignificant message to a receiver 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 designed to stop theft of cars This is the reason that most modern cars use them.
In World War II, coded messages were sent over radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was hostile or friendly. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985 for its Corvette. Since then, most new vehicles come equipped with them, and they are also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to include the transponder chip.
If you own a car with this type of security system, make sure you always keep an extra transponder card on hand, since it only works if the chip is scanned correctly. But this isn't 100% secure and some people have discovered methods to fool the transponder system, such as tutorials and kits that explain how to get around it using electrical relays and wiring.
Proximity keys
Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technologies, which are becoming more popular on a number of 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 then communicates with the car, removing the immobiliser and allowing for the engine to begin.
However proximity key systems have some disadvantages. If the key fob is damaged or lost the fob isn't usable to start the car. It's expensive to hire a locksmith or dealer to replace it. The fobs are also powered by batteries, so they will need to be periodically replaced.
Another disadvantage of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause-and-effect loop we're used to with physical keys. When you use a traditional key and the lock opens, you know 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 their downsides proximity keys are a great invention for drivers who don't want to lock themselves out of their car. In the event of an emergency, always have an additional key on hand if you own a proximity key. If you need a replacement key, you can contact your local Pop-Alock to inquire about prices for replacements and to receive a price for services.
Keyless Entry Systems
The days of storing keys in the home are long gone and landlords can now give tenants more security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are linked to back-end software and allow landlords to keep track of entry and exit. These systems also help tenants in crisis to enter the property.
Keyless entry works by transmitting encrypted signals the car's receiver. The receiver reads the signal and opens or turns off your car. It also can detect the presence of an individual driver and adjust settings to accommodate their needs. For instance, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will recognize this and shut the doors.
Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks, even though they are very safe. A replay attack, for instance, is when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded and sent again at a later date. This can be prevented by using an algorithm in the keyless entry system that ensures every transmission is different from the previous ones.
Another benefit of a keyless entry system is that it does not require the replacement of locks following every tenant turnover. This is a significant cost of the unit turnover process and it is sensible for landlords to avoid this expense as much as feasible. With a keyless system, all you need to do is reset the code. This is a lot quicker and easier than replacing the lock.
