programmable front door key fobs

[Happy Dude]

I have had yet another phone call for electronic key fobs, they seem to be everywhere in the city now on all the new build flats.

 

can anyone fill me in as what is available to small shops such as myself to enable us to make these fobs and what the legal implications are please.

 

thanks...

I wouldn't mind some info about fobs, too.

Got mine from them

I have a fob copy machine and as you say we’re getting asked more these days than ever

Depends on the fobs being used, if they are paxton then you will not be able to copy them.

I have one of these does almost everything I have been asked for.

takes longer to get the machine out than it does to copy the fob.

I would you recomend that you find out what the local housing companies are using then check out the machines.

thanks for the advice, I can get one of those machines from SKS, I phoned for advice and they were helpful enough so I'll do a bit market research before I decide to invest a substantial amount of money, had my fingers burnt before with knee jerk decisions

I clone most of the basic  local fobs on the RW4 plus (use sks SCD-FOB), just treat as a normal transponder key.

Can the RW4 do any fobs the Fortress/Davenport machine cannot do? 

[Dave the locksmith]

No, only basic entry tag with the prox chip inside.

That’s great info Dave, I have a RW4+ box, most of the ones I get asked for are the disc type of the teardrop shape.

 

Worth getting a couple of the SKS SCD fob to try,

Maybe this article will provide a wee bit more understanding... https://community.getkisi.com/the-risks-of-using-key-fobs/

Is there any way we can get them a copy of Paxton fobs? They are mainly the only ones I get asked for

[Mick Friend]

paxon use a weird system from memory I tried to copy one from my system and it wouold write it into the memory but not copy it

according to ... http://www.doorfobs.com/  they can clone paxton fobs 100% by post so there must be a solution... maybe a paxton unit is required to sniff the data ... like the snoop on the rw4?  would all the paxton sniff data be the same?  ps... im way over my head here, so if im talking nonsense, i apologise in advance

The Smartcard Deluxe will copy around 45% of the fobs used in the UK, these are Indala, Prox11, Atmel and T5557 style 125Khz chips.

It can copy all these to a standard writable fob which you can pick up with the machine at SKS, Davenport, Fortress etc. Of course you are going to pay a premium unless you speak Russian in which case you can buy the Russian version from rmxlabs.ru (who build both) for significantly less.

 

http://www.doorfobs.com/  are specialists and as such copy 98% of the fobs used in the UK, more than any other company at this time. Of course that will change over time as more people get RFID savvy.
