Almost certainly. You’d have to go out of your way to find a keyfob system that doesn’t. I administer a keyfob system at work, and I can tell you exactly whose key was used on which doors and at what times.
The system almost certainly will record every usage of the keyfob. It may also record opening the door from inside.

0·11 months agoWhite noise. I bought a white noise machine years ago when I lived near a large emergency room that had ambulances going by all day every day. It really helped with the sirens, and when I moved away I kept using the machine. My brain now interprets the white noise as profound silence, and I sleep so deeply that I don’t know how I ever got by without it.

0·1 year agoI want Roland Emmerich to make a movie out of the short story A Pail of Air.
tl;dr/spoiler: ~20 years ago, a black hole passed through the solar system and captured the Earth, dragging it inexorably away from the Sun. This causes great earthquakes, tsunami, and other immediate civilization-ending catastrophes, but the real disaster comes when the atmosphere freezes and falls like snow to the ground. The original story follows a young boy born after the cataclysm whose chores include collecting buckets of frozen air.
