Keyless Entry System

Keyless entry systems are an excellent method of securing your rental home without having to use physical keys. These systems allow guests and tenants to gain access to the building by using the use of a code or using their smartphones. They can also work with intercoms to provide audio and video messages and provide different ways for people to gain access to the building. Some keyless entry systems run on cloud which allows them to be controlled remotely and provide more advanced features.

You can install the keyless entry system in any type of property whether residential or commercial. First, the hardware needs to be installed at every entryway. The system needs to be set up and managed through a central console or an app for smartphones. According to Technavio the world's keyless entry market is expected to grow by a CAGR between 2016 and 2022 of 11.8%. The growth in the market is attributed to the increasing demand for security systems for commercial vehicles.

Many people are afraid of being locked out of their home Therefore, they keep spare keys in a safe place. This poses a significant security risk, since criminals know where people hide their spare keys and will easily find them. To avoid this happening, it's recommended to install a keyless entry system installed at your home. This will ensure that you never be locked out again.

Transponder Chip

The transponder, or "chip key" is a microchip which is built into the head of your car keys. It's among the most important safety layers for your vehicle.  G28 Car Keys  "transponder" comes from the combination of transmitter and responder which is because, when the key is inserted into the ignition and then turned, the antenna ring on your car transmits a flash of radio frequency energy to the transponder chip. The chip responds by sending its own unique identification code to the antenna ring, and the car's computers can discern that code and determine if it's a legitimate key.

The key must be a transponder key to start the car, if it is not, then the vehicle will remain unresponsive. The chip is protected by a polycarbonate layer that blocks it from being cloned with regular mechanical keys or copied with laser equipment. Beishir Lock and Security offers an extensive range of transponder keys at a fraction of the price of car dealers.



Transponder chips first began to become popular in the 80's when GM introduced them in the Corvette. This technology drastically reduced vehicle thefts as hot-wiring was made obsolete. This is a basic explanation of how a chip key functions and should you have any queries you can contact us.

Immobiliser System

The engine immobiliser (also known as the anti-theft system) is a vital aspect of your vehicle's security. When you insert your key into the ignition switch or Smart Key fob, the transponder chip inside it sends an electronic code to the vehicle's Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ECU checks that the code sent by the chip is identical to the one it has stored and then it allows the engine to begin.

This is the primary way that your car's immobiliser prevents theft. If the chip's code does not match with the code on the chip, the ECU will block the flow of current from the fuel pump relay to the injection system, preventing the engine from getting started. The immobiliser can also disable the starter motor or ignition coil in order to prevent the engine being forced to start.

Unfortunately the system isn't impervious to hacks. The code used to unlock the immobiliser of your car could be hacked by thieves and used to open it. However, the most recent versions of these systems come with a an extended cryptographic sequence that will be more difficult to deduce.

Car immobilisers are mandatory since 1998, however many cars had rudimentary immobilisers before that. It's important to note that while an immobiliser makes it harder to steal a car it does not prevent thieves from towing away from it or breaking into the car to gain access to your possessions.

Key Replacement

The loss of a remote or key fob is costly and can be a hassle. Locksmiths must gain entry to the car and decode the VIN and then reprogramme a new replacement to wipe out any signatures that were previously stored on the computer for all of keys that have been lost, stolen or damaged.

A key replacement will be more expensive if your vehicle includes a transponder, or an integrated security chip. The chips transmit signals to your car to confirm that you are the driver and allow the doors to be opened and the engine started. The typical price for an replacement smart key is approximately $160.
