A car problem in Azusa rarely happens somewhere convenient. It might be a locked door in a lot off Azusa Ave, a lost key after a hike near the San Gabriel Canyon entrance, or a dead fob in a student parking space near Azusa Pacific University. Crenshaw Lock Company is fully mobile, so we bring the work to wherever the vehicle is sitting. We have no storefront for you to drive to, and you should not have to tow a car just to get a key made.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar built the business around practical, honest automotive and residential work. Our automotive service covers cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleets. That includes opening locked vehicles, cutting and programming replacement keys, repairing worn or broken ignitions, and helping when a key snaps off in a door or ignition.

We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we do not make timing promises we cannot control. Traffic on the I-210, a canyon road closure or a late-night call all affect how a job unfolds. What we can promise is that when you call (323) 997-8867, you will talk to someone who understands vehicles and will explain your options plainly before work starts.

How it works in Azusa

  1. 1

    You call and describe the situation

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the make, model and year, where the vehicle is, and what happened: locked out, lost keys, broken key, or a fob that stopped working. Those details tell us what tools and key blanks to bring.

  2. 2

    We confirm the details and the scope

    Before work starts, we go over what the job involves and what affects the cost, so there are no surprises. We also ask about ownership and the vehicle's security features, since some systems need extra steps.

  3. 3

    We come to your vehicle

    Because we are fully mobile, we meet you at the car, whether that is a driveway in Rosedale, a street in downtown Azusa, a campus lot or a roadside pullout. We work on site and avoid scratching paint, tearing weatherstripping or damaging door panels.

  4. 4

    We open, cut or repair

    For lockouts, we use professional entry methods designed to protect the door, window and lock. For keys, we cut the blade, and for ignition problems we diagnose whether the key, the cylinder or the wafers are worn before recommending a fix.

  5. 5

    We program and test everything

    Transponder keys and fobs must be programmed to the vehicle. We program, then test the door locks, remote functions and ignition several times so you know it all works before we leave.

  6. 6

    We hand over keys and give advice

    You get working keys and clear guidance on keeping a spare. Having a second key made now is usually simpler than starting from zero after the last one is lost.

What affects the price

  • Vehicle make, model and year, since some systems are far more involved to key than others
  • Key type: a basic metal key, a transponder key, a remote head key, a smart key or a proximity fob each require different work
  • Whether you still have a working key to copy, or all keys are lost and a new one must be originated
  • The nature of the problem: a simple lockout versus a worn ignition cylinder, broken key extraction or damaged door lock
  • Time of day and location of the vehicle, since we serve 24/7 and some calls come in late at night or from remote spots
  • Number of vehicles or keys involved, as with fleet work or a set of spare keys made in one visit

Why Azusa chooses us

  • Fully mobile, so no towing to a shop and no storefront trip; we work where your vehicle is parked
  • Serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, with owner David Shar leading the work
  • Covers a wide range of vehicles: cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleets, not just standard passenger sedans
  • Available 24/7, which matters for late-night campus lockouts and early-morning canyon trips
  • We explain the options and cost factors before starting, and we skip hype and pressure
  • Because we also handle residential and commercial locks, we can help with a home, rental or fleet yard in the same visit when needed

Automotive Locksmith across Azusa

Azusa packs a lot of different vehicle situations into a small area. Downtown Azusa along Azusa Ave and Foothill Blvd, the old Route 66 corridor, has commuters, shop owners and delivery drivers parking all day, and lockouts and lost keys happen right there in 91702. Near Azusa Pacific University and Citrus College, students juggle shared cars, older vehicles and fobs that go missing, and many calls come at odd hours around semester starts and finals.

In Rosedale, newer households tend to drive newer vehicles with smart keys and proximity fobs, which need proper programming rather than a quick copy. In the gated Mountain Cove community at the canyon mouth, access can add a step, so it helps to tell us at the start how to reach you. If you are heading up SR-39 toward San Gabriel Canyon and Angeles National Forest, a lost or locked-in key at a trailhead or pullout is a common reason people call us, and we can come to you there.

Whether you are near the Metro A Line stations at Azusa Downtown or APU/Citrus College, parked along Alosta Ave or Gladstone St, or stuck just off the I-210, call (323) 997-8867. We are mobile and open around the clock.

Automotive Locksmith in Azusa — FAQs

Can you come to me if I am locked out of my car in Azusa?
Yes. We are fully mobile and serve Azusa 24/7. Call (323) 997-8867, tell us where the vehicle is and what make and model it is, and we will head your way and open it without damaging the door or lock.
Do you make replacement keys if I lost all of mine?
Yes. We can originate a new key for many vehicles even when no working key exists, then program it to the car. Have your registration or other proof of ownership ready, since we confirm ownership before making keys.
Can you program a key fob or smart key?
Yes, in most cases. Transponder keys, remote head keys and proximity fobs all require programming to the vehicle. We handle cutting and programming on site, then test every function before we finish.
My key broke off in the ignition or door. Can that be fixed?
Usually. We can extract the broken piece and, if needed, cut a new key. If the ignition cylinder or door lock is worn or damaged, we will explain whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
Do you work on motorcycles, RVs and trucks?
Yes. Our automotive service covers cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleets. Mention the vehicle type when you call (323) 997-8867 so we can prepare the right tools and key blanks.
Is there a shop I can come to?
No. Crenshaw Lock Company is mobile only, with no storefront. That is intentional: we come to your vehicle in Azusa, whether it is at home, at work, on campus or on the roadside.
How is the price decided?
It depends on the vehicle, the key type, whether you have a working key to copy, and the kind of problem. We go over those factors before starting so you know what to expect.
Can you help with a fleet or business vehicles in Azusa?
Yes. We handle fleet lockouts, spare keys and ignition repairs for local businesses. Call (323) 997-8867 to talk through how many vehicles and what services you need.
