To access a Vault, two players must stand outside the locked door for a few seconds. This will automatically unlock the door and the loot contained inside it. However, there are a few workarounds to open the Vault door without a teammate.

Follow any of the following three methods to unlock the Vault cache solo:

  • NPC Guard Bots - This is the easiest way to get the Vault open while playing by yourself. A couple of bots will be roaming around the location. You can down one and carry it to the front of the Vault for scanning.
  • Random Player - Although this method is risky, you can work with a random Fortnite player to share the loot and rewards. Keep in mind that you may not find a friendly face every time.
  • Jonesy NPC - You can hire Agent Jones for 95 gold bars and make him follow you to the Vault door. Players can acquire gold bars by completing the Bounty mission.
