Door Locks

It does this by using the radio signal which is only transmitted if the key is at a certain distance from the car. Once the signal is spotted by a solenoid, the door lock translates the electronic signal into an action that is mechanical. This is accomplished by moving a rod which opens the door lock as the physical key used to do.

This is something only a qualified auto locksmith can do, but it can reduce the frustration and money in the long run.
