Electronic Security Vulnerabilities Exposed: The Reality of Modern Access Control

 Electronic Security Vulnerabilities Exposed: The Reality of Modern Access Control

Modern electronic security devices—including RFID key fobs, NFC cards, and mobile-based credentials—have become the baseline standard for residential buildings and commercial properties. Marketed as the pinnacle of safety, these smart access control systems are installed under the promise of keeping unauthorized visitors out. However, investigative reporting by programs like Australia's A Current Affair has repeatedly torn down this illusion, exposing a thriving black market where illicit operators effortlessly clone restricted security tokens for a fee across Sydney and other metropolitan hubs.

The Anatomy of the Electronic Key Bypass Scam

The ease with which radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags can be compromised highlights a major flaw in modern property management. Low-frequency (125 kHz) and high-frequency (13.56 MHz) smart cards can often be read and duplicated in mere seconds using inexpensive, commercially available hardware bought online.

This creates a complex socioeconomic and ethical dilemma for tenants and strata management:

 Artificial Scarcity: Building management companies often tightly restrict the number of issued access tokens or refuse extra copies outright.

 Exorbitant Pricing: When authorized duplicates are permitted, management companies frequently charge excessive fees for simple plastic tags.

 Driven to Workarounds: Frustrated residents seeking fair household access are inadvertently nudged toward grey-market cloners, undermining building security architecture.

Why Smart Access Control Fails the Security Test

For years, cybersecurity experts and the professional locksmith industry have warned that convenience frequently comes at the cost of genuine protection. Electronic credentials suffer from several inherent vulnerabilities:

 Insecure Cloning Vectors: Standard proximity fobs can be skimmed from a distance without the owner's knowledge using hidden handheld transceivers.

 Insider and Administrative Risks: Building contractors and facility managers often retain master programming rights, creating potential vectors for rogue credential duplication.

 A False Sense of Security: Property developers market smart technology to drive up real estate value, ignoring the fact that basic backend infrastructure remains easy to exploit.

Returning to High-Security Mechanical Key Control

While technology companies race to patch software endpoints, traditional locksmithing principles offer a time-tested alternative. Restricted mechanical key systems utilize patented keyways and strict legal frameworks that prevent unauthorized key duplication.

Leading global hardware brands—such as Abloy, BiLock, EVVA, Mul-T-Lock, and Medeco—manufacture mechanical cylinders backed by legally enforceable key blanks. Authorized duplicates require strict cryptographic or signature-based verification, ensuring that unauthorized third parties cannot simply walk into a hardware store or buy an online device to copy a key.

The Verdict: How Safe Are You?

As smart city infrastructure expands, the vulnerability of residential access control remains a glaring blind spot. Relying solely on electronic convenience leaves properties exposed to physical cloning and credential compromise. True structural defense requires a hybrid approach: robust cybersecurity hardening for digital systems paired with legally restricted mechanical fail-safes.

Are you confident that your building's current access control system can withstand a targeted cloning attack?

Why Your Business Needs an Advanced Commercial Access Control System in St. Louis

Why Your Business Needs an Advanced Commercial Access Control System in St. Louis

Securing a business in today’s environment requires much more than a standard padlock and a set of brass keys. As companies grow, keeping track of physical access becomes increasingly complicated. Traditional keys can easily be lost, duplicated without authorization, or stolen, posing a direct threat to your corporate assets, inventory, and employee safety. Upgrading to a modern Commercial Access Control System in St. Louis is no longer just a luxury for Fortune 500 companies—it is a vital necessity for local businesses of all sizes.

Traditional master key systems offer a solid foundation, but integrating modern electronic door access control changes the game entirely. With electronic solutions, business owners can manage credentials centrally. Instead of handing out physical keys that are difficult to track, you can issue keycards, mobile smartphone credentials, or biometric fob scans. If an employee leaves the company or loses their credential, you can instantly revoke their access with a few clicks on a dashboard rather than paying for an emergency rekey of every exterior and interior door.

Furthermore, high-security commercial locks and advanced access panels give you detailed audit trails. You will know exactly who entered a sensitive room—such as a server room, human resources office, or inventory warehouse—and at what precise time. This level of oversight deters internal theft, boosts regulatory compliance, and provides invaluable data if an incident ever occurs.

When paired with master key systems like BiLock or high-end panic hardware, electronic access control creates a multi-layered security ecosystem. It bridges the gap between physical durability and remote digital convenience, allowing managers to lock down facilities remotely in the event of an emergency.

Master Keying Solutions with BiLock Quick Change Cores (QCC)

 

BiLock Interchangeable Core Master Keying

Master Keying Solutions with BiLock Quick Change Cores (QCC)

Managing access security across multi-tenant office complexes, industrial plants, and healthcare institutions requires balancing rigid physical access restrictions with operational convenience. The BiLock Quick Change Core (QCC) system delivers an ideal solution: extreme pick resistance combined with quick-change cylinder cores that fit virtually any major brand of lock hardware.

How BiLock Technology Operates

Unlike traditional single-shear-line pin-tumbler locks, BiLock relies on a dual-blade key operating twin rows of locking pins connected to independent sidebars.

Feature	Standard Commercial Pin-Tumbler Lock	BiLock QCC High-Security System
Locking Mechanism	Single row of top/bottom pins along 1 shear line	Dual independent pin rows with 2 sidebars
Pick & Bump Resistance	Moderate; susceptible to bump keys	Exceptional; immune to conventional lock bumping
Core Replacement Time	15–30 minutes per lock (full teardown)	Under 10 seconds using a QCC Control Key
Hardware Retrofitting	Restricted to brand-specific housings	Universal retrofit for rim, mortise, lever, and padlocks
Key Head Customization	Standard brass/metal head	20 distinct color-coded key heads for quick visual identification

Essential Benefits of BiLock QCC Master Keying

1. Rapid Re-Keying Capability: When an employee leaves or a key goes missing, facility managers can instantly swap out lock cores using a specialized control key—eliminating downtime and expensive locksmith service calls.

2. Universal Cross-Brand Integration: BiLock QCC cylinders can be installed inside standard commercial mortise locks, cylindrical levers, deadbolts, cabinet locks, and heavy-duty padlocks.

3. Color-Coded Management: With 20 key-head color choices, management can visually categorize key permissions by department, floor, or shift.

4. Drill and Extraction Defense: Built-in hardened steel anti-drill pins protect the keyway plug against physical drilling and destruction attacks.

Designing an Enterprise Master Key Matrix

A well-structured master key system keeps operations streamlined while securing sensitive areas:

• Great Grand Master Key (GGMK): Unlocks all lock cylinders across multiple buildings.

• Grand Master Key (GMK): Opens all doors within a designated facility.

• Department Master Key (MK): Restricts access to specific zones (e.g., IT, HR, Maintenance).

• Change Key / User Key: Opens only an individual office door, desk drawer, or supply cabinet.

The Evolution of Commercial Master Key Systems in St. Louis

 For businesses throughout St. Louis, maintaining strict physical security while ensuring operational convenience is an ongoing challenge. Implementing a robust commercial master key system allows facility managers to streamline building access without sacrificing safety. Historically, mechanical master key hierarchies—such as those utilizing high-security cylinders like ASSA Max+ or BiLock interchangeable cores—have provided reliable credential management for office complexes, retail centers, and industrial warehouses across Creve Coeur and greater St. Louis. By establishing clear access tiers, property owners can grant custodians or temporary staff entry only to designated utility zones while executive teams retain universal access. Modern GEO-targeted security audits further ensure that businesses comply with local Missouri building codes while defending against sophisticated lock-picking and bumping threats.

Master Keying With Bilock - Interchaneable Core for any brand of hardware

 

Master Keying - How it Works

BiLock's completely interchangeable core lock system (QCC) enables a lock combination to be changed in seconds, provides second-to-none key controls, offers fast and efficient maintenance and large, virtually unlimited master keying system capabilities!

So-called "Master Key" systems have almost become a generic term. Real Master Key Systems that can incorporate high security key control is the specialty and unique purpose of the Bilock range of Extreme SecurityProducts. Because it offers switch locks, perimeter locks, filing cabinet locks, garage door locks and virtually any lock on the market today are much rarer, and BiLock is very rare. BiLock offers virtually infinite combinations with tightly controlled security, it gives both the locksmith and the end user confidence and flexibility. It is the Company's understanding of what a true Master Key System requires that has positioned BiLock at the forefront in todays security market.

The BiLock key system utilises up to 12 chambers with 4 depths per chamber. The numerical sum of these combinations gives 16,777,216 actual key combinations per profile. Powerful Master Key Systems can be generated from these combinations. It also makes possible an authentic and convenient one key system for each individual user authorised to access any particular area, building or group of buildings.

Authorised BiLock agents use a computerised master key generation system, which allows them to build seriously complex Master Key Systems without compromising system security.

The authentic color coded key heads allow convenient identification of different keys, making life simpler  for key holders. 

During construction phases of building construction, Bilock offers color coded cores to help identify the stage in construction. Examples can be like Brown cores for Carpentry stages, Blue cores for Plumbing stages, Red cores for Electrical stages. This unique attribute can be quickly modified by construction project managers to secure ptions of a building during construction that require a particular trade to complete before another, increasing security and reducing the potential for worksite injury.

Widely used across the planet, Bilock’s unique keying system is especially designed to operate in almost every different brand of hardware, enabling brands by Allegion and Assa Abloy (two of the world’s largest lock and door hardware manufacturers) to work together more easily, than with current offerings by each manufacturer. Door and hardware suppliers and locksmiths who offer Bilock products can service customers more easily, especially when architects and general contractors discover issues due to brand choice, on the job.

The clear choice today is convenience with security and Bilock brings convenience and security by making different brands of hardware work together to solve the previously unable to resolve easily issues.

A Rough Year...

 2021 was a very rough year for us. Just like most others, we suffered measurably with the downturn in business thanks in no small part to the Covid 19 pandemic. Business has not returned to previous levels and the long term prognosis is not good at all. We are thankful to our clients who continue to use our services, especially for door and door hardware repairs. Actual locksmith calls has cratered significantly and we are modifying our products and services offerings as a consequence. 

We are still offering some services like:

• Door Unlocks (if you are locked out)
• Safe Openings (repairing and opening safes)
• Lock rekeys (if you have lost a set of keys or are moving into a new place)
• Door hardware repairs (if your handle or hinges are broken or out of alignment)
• Key cutting (residential and commercial keys - not car keys)
• Door closer repairs (if your door isn't closing correctly)

We have moved on from offering some hardware lines due to supply difficulties While we still carry a very small amount of these lines:

• Meroni
• Bilock
• Lockwood
• Schlage
• Weslock
• Kwikset

We are no longer competitive on many of them.

We have adjusted our hours tremendously too, because we have taken on additional employment during these difficult times. We are only available by appointment still and will be available more in evenings and weekends in future.

Contact-Less User Interfaces Are Becoming A Part Of Our New Future - Part 1

As we progress toward a more contact-less future, given the current precarious situation we find ourselves facing, with the pandemic today causing upheaval to our daily lives....

We decided to share a new post to discuss some contact-less options that already exist in today's world and articles that we have written over the last 10 years or so.


Voice control is one area that we have embraced in recent years with the advent of Google Voice, Home, Amazon Alexa, Echo etc among other offerings.

Below find a number of articles that we have written, that provide some interesting reading about some of the options already available to us. Some of the products listed below do not exist anymore but talented researchers are constantly creating new and improved products that might help us progress through this new world...

ADI Block Lock - Total Security Bolt Protection Unrivaled The World Over

This is the top security ADI Block Lock made by ADI Security, an Australian manufacturer of superb security products originally founded by Brian and Peter Preddy and being bought out by Locksmith Supply Company a few years ago. Locksmith Supply Company are the original Locksmith Industry supply house that has provided hardware, machinery and tools to the locksmith industry in Australia for almost 100 years. 

We recently brought in (to USA) a number of these specialty lock products for use as custom security products for our clients needs. We are negotiating with LSC to become an exclusive distributor for this product line in the USA.

We brought in their through fix bolt version with some extended bolts, which are particularly useful for doors or cabinets where the frame construction may be wider apart than standard frames.

We will post some images and a video of our installation in a follow up post.

As expected, quality security products like these are not cheap. Quality costs a fair price. These ADI products are very good quality. I have personally installed many of their varying products over the last 35 years in the industry and attest to their strength and reliability.

We have also written about some of ADI's other products over the last 10 years, like the ADI Cap Lock, a product designed for tradespeople like plumbers and electrians who often carry long rooftop containers on their vehicles to transport pipes, cables, rods etc that are too long to conveniently carry inside their secure vehicles. The Cap Lock secures the end of the tube, protecting from theft and unauthorized access.

Another of ADI's products we have written about is the Slim Line Patio Bolt, an especially designed and constructed product that is super strong and able to be used on narrow frames of doors or gates. Like other ADI products, the Slim Line Patio Bolt also uses an oval key cylinder that can also be converted to many differing brands of high security restricted key cylinders, like Bilock, Abloy Protec, Medeco, Schlage Primus, C123, Multilock among other brands (consult your local restricted key system provider for compatible restricted key cylinders to suit)

We welcome inquiries from interested consumers and fellow security professionals, who may find a use for these fantastic security products.

Master Key Systems Explained - How To Design Your Master Key System

Today marks 10 years from when we wrote an article about Master Key Systems and we revise that post today and include it here for your pleasure.....


We wrote (November 25, 2009):

As a blog author and locksmith, as a business owner and statistician, I keenly watch the results using Google Analytics, of the search terms people use while attempting to gather knowledge that may help them to be more aware when purchasing products or services.

I am noticing a significant number of searches recently about master keying although, it may be due to a cardinal lack of understanding about the principle.

It seems that many searches recently are from people who assume that all deadbolts are master keyed. This is simply not true. It is a fallacy.

A deadbolt, or any other lock for that matter, must be purposely master keyed.

There are no pre-fabricated master keys for residential or commercial deadbolt locks.

In bygone years, manufacturers of some bit-key type mortise deadlocks, did produce some of their ranges with a purposely designed flaw allowing for a "skeleton" key to operate. This skeleton key was often referred to as a Master Key.

There are some manufacturers of coin machine locks or cam locks, that routinely produce their locks to be master keyed. The primary benefit in using master keyed coin or cam locks is for commercial situations like an office complex that uses on-site maintenance to minimize the quantity of keys a janitor or other service person can be required to carry. (source...)

Many of the same things we wrote about 10 years ago are still true today.

We here at Master Key Systems America LLC/ St Louis Locksmiths are proud of our continuing longevity in the locksmith trade, currently just a tad over 35 years in the business.

We are lucky enough to have worked on 4 different continents and been exposed to many differing types and styles of key systems, that all have their benefits (and issues) for users in their respective regions.

We are one of the leading Bilock Extreme Security Dealers in the USA, having offered Bilock for the last 14 years, locally,

We have worked with the product regularly since 1983, when we first entered the trade. The product was first made available about 5 years prior.

We explain to customers when designing their master key systems, that our preferred method of creating their system requires establishing a list/spreadheet of doors in their property that they want to operate by key.

We usually survey the premise and will often mark all keyed doors with an individual number often on the hinge or inside of the door frame.

This enables each door to be recorded individually. We will often include details like, hinge location/size/make, door hardware (type of lock), color, kickplate (if required), strike plate type etc.

This allows us to immediately know what the original door products are, if ever asked in future. And allows us to know immediately which keys operate which doors.

On the spreadsheet, we will list each door and it's number across the top of the graph, separated into columns.

We will list the names/employee number of key holders in the left side column.

We will then check the name under the corresponding door each person requires to access.

This simple method allows us to accurately design each system and account for all users.

We prefer to offer all our master key systems using Bilock because it is a restricted keyway that is protected from unauthorized duplication. This means no one can get a key copy without the written permission of the designated authorized signatory. This prevents too may keys being out there and not accounted for. No one can get another key made without the owner/manager's knowledge and permission.

We color code all our Bilock keys for simpler identification. We also emboss the system number, key number and issue number on each key, that means each key is an original and NOT a duplicate.

The method of designing a master key system is important to control access to areas required and dramatically improves the security of a premise.

We still like to recommend mechanical access control key systems because they are virtually maintenance free, require no reliance on batteries or electricity, are significantly cheaper than electronic products and are specifically designed to last 25+ years.

Should you wish to know how master key systems can benefit you and your security, feel free to contact us or your local legitimate locksmith for more personal detail. 

A Stroke Of Genius - Kwikset Smartkey Defeat With No Damage

Yesterday we attended to a client for whom we had previously rekeyed their new home about 8 weeks ago, who had accidentally locked themselves out.

The husband and wife had traveled out of state for a vacation and one of the spouses had inadvertently left their spare key inside the house, while the other spouse with the key was still interstate.

The types of locks they have on their doors are Kwikset Smartkey designer series locks similar to the style presented in the picture here.

Typically, many locksmiths would choose to drill and destroy a Kwikset Smartkey lock because typically they can be somewhat difficult to manipulate without causing unrepairable damage.

Many doors that use Kwikset Smartkey locks, tend to have a separate entry set from a deadbolt lock. Often defeating an entry set, without damage is painlessly simple and there are methods to bypass a Kwikset Smartkey deadbolt that are considered "outside the box". We deliberately choose NOT to share these unique bypass methods for fear of those details getting into the wrong hands.

Our customer being out of state, while their spouse was on their way home without a copy of their Kwikset Smartkey operating key, contacted me to attend the site and unlock the door on behalf of their spouse. When the spouse arrived at the airport they contacted me to arrange a suitable time.

Being as cold as it is presently, I did not want to keep the customer waiting for long while I attempted to manipulate the lock cylinder. I did not want to drill and destroy the lock, because getting a replacement on such short notice was not possible, so I asked the spouse interstate to snap a picture of their operating key and text it to me.

Upon receiving the image, I attended the home just prior (about 15 minutes) before the spouse arrived home from the airport. I grabbed the appropriate Kwikset key blank and set about making a copy of their operating key with my handheld impressioning file.

Having a clear image from which to determine the cuts of the key proved the stroke of genius in this move, because I was able to recreate the operating key in about 10 minutes and it operated flawlessly in the deadbolt (pictured above). This allowed me to unlock their door without any damage nor signs of forced or manipulated entry. The clients existing key (inside the house) still worked like new and we saved the inconvenience of trying to replace a special order lock product.

NOW - Obviously you can see a security issue here that can be distressing. If someone has enough time to take a picture of your house key, potentially they could simply contact a locksmith who could also provide the same service and make a copy of the key. Ethically and morally many locksmiths would not do this, unless they knew the customer and they could prove they belong to the address in question. But not everyone lives by a code of ethics.

A few years ago we wrote an article that talked about creating key duplicates using the credit cards you often get on the mail from promoters.

See Credit Cards Used To Duplicate Keys

Another article we wrote about 5 years ago talked about a service created by some enterprising engineers in California called Shloosl, See the link

Here is an article from about 10 years ago that discusses the ease in creating a copy of your key by picture..... Key Photograph Key Cutting


Simply put, there is only 1 way to prevent unauthorised key duplication. Using a High-Security Restricted Key System. Systems that require your signature authorization in advance of origination. There are many systems available across the world in today's market. Some better than others. We choose to offer the Bilock Extreme Security restricted key system.

Artificial Intelligence Now Capable Of Bypassing Fingerprint Security

Artificial Intelligence has grown in recent years to such a point that according to a team of 5 NYU researchers, fingerprint identification, found in many products today, including but not limited to deadbolt locks, entrance sets, electric strike user interfaces, access control and time clocks, among other modern day electronic products, is now able to contravene the once thought of high security alternative to mechanical key entry systems.

We have previously touted the benefits of biometric fingerprint security scanners that were/are included in a great many differing products, including a (now discontinued) high security deadbolt lock that we sold many years ago. We realized the error of our ways, when a number of older clients were finding tremendous difficulty in registering and using the fingerprint deadbolt locks we once recommended. Specifically we found that if you were over 55 years of age, your fingerprints wear more quickly as you age. This proved to be an impediment to future sales of fingerprint operated biometric products because many elder users would have been the primary beneficiaries of keyless, fingerprint operated lock systems.

It is obvious that Apple, recognized the limitations of fingerprint identification systems when they decided to discontinue fingerprint readers in many of their largest selling product lines, like the iPhone, the iPad and other products. Many competing product manufacturers also included fingerprint readers in a host of other products, hoping to also cash in on the once burgeoning sector of the electronics products markets.

An excerpt from the article quoted in the source below explains....

"Named ‘DeepMasterPrints’, the set of fake fingerprints was generated by the NYU scientists using a neural network to be some sort of ‘master key’ for biometric authentication systems that have an error rate of one in a thousand. To work this well, DeepMasterPrints takes advantage of two properties fingerprint authentication systems have: that they scan only a part of the finger at any given time and not the whole finger; and that some features of fingerprints are more common than others. 

So, the weakness in the system here, explains The Guardian, is that fingerprint scanners never blend all the partial images to match a full fingerprint against a full record. Instead, they just compare a partial scan against partial records. This means that attackers need only match one of tens or even hundreds of recorded fingerprints in order to gain access into a secured system.

The scientists’ presented their research paper at a biometrics conference in Los Angeles in October. “The underlying method is likely to have broad applications in fingerprint security as well as fingerprint synthesis,” said NYU’s Philip Bontrager, the lead author of the paper in a statement to Gizmodo. “A similar setup to ours could be used for nefarious purposes, but it would likely not have the success rate we reported unless they optimized it for a smartphone system."

Naturally, as a security services and products provider, we try to remain updated on issues affecting security products and services to enable us to provide our growing lists of customers with updated information regarding products and services aimed at minimizing issues and mitigating security loopholes.

Apple, introduced facial recognition in many of their products, which seems to be becoming quite widely accepted across the wider marketplace.

We highly recommend consulting your local trained and qualified locksmith technician, who can advise you on great quality secure products that will provide continued secure access to your properties and security systems.

At Master Key Systems America LLC, we provide Extreme Security Bilock Restricted mechanical key systems that are virtually unparalleled across the world for bump proof and virtually pick proof locks and cylinders that use virtually copy proof, unique color coded keys. We can produce complex master key systems that can operate up to 1.7 billion separate locks.

About To Celebrate Our 12th Anniversary With The Home Advisor/Angie's List Network

Below you can see our page hosted on Home Advisor. We have been continued members since 2007 of the Home Advisor network of service professionals.

When the parent company of Home Advisor acquired Angie's List late last year and completed merging the two networks together, the created a behemoth in the lead generation market, a market that has seen meteoric rise since Google began their Adwords program.

The early days of lead generation began with companies developing advertisements using the Google Adwords platform. At that time PPC (pay per click) was in it's infancy and costs for clicks were around 1-5 cents per click. 

Enter lead generation marketers.

They discovered methods through the Google architecture to use prime positioning in Adwords to build their lead generation networks, effectively raising the cost per click to prices unsustainable by small businesses alone. Then they could sell memberships to service providers and charge for customer's contact details. This opened a modern market formerly controlled by Yellow Pages and other directory advertising portals. What makes gthese lead generation companies money is the ability to sell these leads to multiple service professionals at rates significantly less than those service professionals would have to spend to acquire customers in ways past.

We are lucky enough to have received 380+ reviews from customers we have served with most being 5 star, Please enjoy the page shown below and feel free to comment in the box provided beneath.
