Why choose an Essex AKE-5 over a standard remote key fob system?

• No need to carry keys with you everywhere you go. Simply enter your personalized 3 to 8 digit access code at the Keypad to unlock the door. With the AKE-5, you can even hide your keys in your secured vehicle.  This gives you the freedom to go to the beach, to play golf or go anywhere without having to carry keys.
• No more waiting for roadside assistance because of keys or remote key fobs locked inside of your vehicle. The AKE-5 eliminates the possibility of being locked out.
• In addition to the master code, up to 5 user codes can be easily programmed. Leave your vehicle at the airport or some other destination for a friend, loved one or even yourself with the keys locked & hidden safely inside the vehicle.
• Auxilliary devices like electric trunk release can be operated from the keypad.
