Lost a condo fob, need a spare garage remote, or managing access for a whole building? CaptainLock duplicates fobs, garage remotes, and key cards most done in a minute or two, with real, upfront pricing and no hidden fees. And unlike a fob-copy-only shop, we’re the team who can also build your building’s entire access system wiring, installation, and ongoing maintenance as an AK Security partner. Walk in to our Richmond shop, or we come to you across Vancouver, Surrey, Burnaby, and the rest of Greater Vancouver.

Every technician joins our team with a minimum of two years of industry experience, then completes a two-month, in-house hands-on training program under our founder, Alan Bell supervised by a Red Seal Certified Locksmith. Copying a high-frequency fob or programming a garage remote wrong means a system that doesn’t talk to your building our technicians are trained to get it right the first time.
Every fob and remote we duplicate has a real, published price before you even walk in no vague “it depends” until you’re standing at the counter. Most copies take 1 to 5 minutes, done on the spot in our Richmond shop.
We copy fobs and remotes for 5 to 10 buildings a week — a mix of individual condo owners, strata councils, and property managers across Richmond and Vancouver. That steady volume means we’ve likely already worked with a system like yours, whether it’s Keyscan, ICT, or HID.
Some high-security fobs are encrypted or restricted at a system level, and there’s no way to tell just by looking at one whether it can be duplicated. Rather than guess, we check it in the system first so you’re not paying for an attempt that was never going to work.
We’re authorized dealers for ICT and HID, and licensed to duplicate, create, and program fobs and access systems not just experienced with them, formally certified. We work with major strata corporations and property managers across the region, including Dwell First Strata, RE/MAX Panda, Luxury First Service, and BC government-supported low-income housing.
We’re also a partner of AK Security, and we don’t stop at duplication. We build building access control systems from the ground up wiring, access control installation, integration with elevators, garage doors, and intercoms, then programming, duplication, and ongoing maintenance.
