Key Fob Repair

What to send
Send the ZIP code, property type, full door photo, close-ups of the reader, keypad, lock or controller, and a short video showing what happens when you try to open the door.
Repair before replacement
The goal is to identify the failed part before replacing equipment. Many access-control problems come from alignment, power, relay output, wiring or settings rather than the visible reader alone.
