gate entry system, new fobs?

GeX · 14 Jan 2010 at 13:49

Hi

I have lost my keys. On that key set was a fob that opened the gate into our buildings car park. I have borrowed a fob off the office for now.

Can i clone this fob? Or do i need to pay the £60 the management company want for a replacement? The fob is Telcoma Tango Slim 2. They retail for around £28 + vat.

Any help?

Also, to gain entry into the building I have another fob. I assume it's an RF ID tag as there are no buttons on it, just hold it near the receiver and it unlocks. They want £50 for a new one :eek:

The entry system is by Fermax, can i clone the one i have?

the office said they have to order them from the management company, commented on how expensive they are and asked if i find a way of getting them cheaper to let them know!

ok, just spoke to an installer. no it can't be cloned, has to be done with access to the receiver board.

the office is just a sales office for the rest of the building, they're not going to program them. all they can do is order another one for me, which the managment company will send out programmed or program it themselves.
