Copying a keyfob?

[H4ss4n]

My sister has bought an apartment in central and has been given one door keyfob to enter/exit the carpark on foot and one remote fob to open the security gates to the car park to drive in/out.

Since she's not always at the apartment she lets me use the carpark but it is a ball ache trying to co-ordinate times to collect the fobs from her.

She's asked building management and they've asked for £160 each for additional fob which is bit of a joke.

Is their anyone in London that could copy the fobs?

Could you buy one (the same model fob) off ebay and ask them to program it? Just tell them it isn't working I'm sure they'd do it for free

Fairly sure the Nice fobs are set by dip switches inside the fob, I used to have them for my gates, I'll see if I can remember where I got my spares from.

Not where I got mine from but the same job, open the one you have and see if it has a row of switches, if it has you should be good to go.

This looks quite good to...

The first one is a PAC token around £5.00 to buy, cant be copied I'm afraid needs to learned into the system.

As above, if it's anything like our door access system at work each fob has a unique code which needs to be entered into the system, this can then be given access rights to each door, ours work on NFC devices and can be read by a suitable mobile phone and app, I'm not sure if you can buy programmable ones but if you can you'd just need to replicate the unique number of the original fob.
Can't comment on the remote one but may work in the same way.

Good Luck
