Some still kept the bladed key, others got high security key blades called sidewinder or laser cut key.

While others had the key blade removed and hidden in the back side for emergancy car access only. They have taken on the name proximity key, proximity remote and proximity fob. All of them have a chip inside the uses a rolling code that talks to the car. The chip and remote functions most often need to be programmed using expensive diagnostic equipment.

Sidewinder and laser cut car Keys

A key that moves sliders is known as a sidewinder key or laser cut key. These keys are easily recognizable for the snake-like path that is cut into the sides of the blade. In almost all cases, this pattern will appear on both sides of the key so that it can be inserted two different ways.

Similar to wafer locks, these paths are used to elevate or depress the internal components of the car lock. The sliders in the lock ride along the path that is cut into the key, and when the sidewinder key is fully inserted, all of the sliders should be at their appropriate height. Unlike the sheer lines in a wafer lock, the slider lock will have different gates.

Each slider needs to be fitted into a gate so that they will be out of the way and allow the car lock can turn freely. This means that the deepest gate will always be the true gate. For security, multiple unnecessary gates are added to the lock. These are known as false gates and do not provide the adequate depth to have the slider leave the lock unobstructed.

If there are no false gates in the lock, these devices will be incredibly easy to pick or rake open. This should not be a concern to most car owners because very few criminals pick locks, and an even fewer number of car thieves pick locks. In addition to this, most laser keys act only as a backup. They are the key of choice for most smart key systems, and will not start the car without the fob present.

Often these sidewinder keys will be hidden within the fob, and slide out when a button on the fob is depressed. Once this button is pressed, the laser key can be pulled free. Remember to put this key back in the slot until it clicks and locks into place. If your car key replacement requires a laser key to be cut, this is no issue. All it requires is a laser key cutter. Lock Surgeon can cut that key, and get you back to feeling safe knowing that you will always have access to your car.
