Car trouble rarely picks a convenient place. In Bellflower it might be a parking space behind an apartment court off Bellflower Boulevard, a driveway in a 1950s tract neighborhood, a shopping center lot, or the shoulder near the I-605 or SR-91 on-ramps. Whatever the spot, an automotive locksmith who drives to you saves the cost and hassle of a tow to a shop.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar built the business around mobile work. Our service vans carry the tools for the jobs people actually call about: unlocking a vehicle without damaging the door or paint, cutting keys when every key is lost, programming transponder keys and remotes, and repairing worn or damaged ignitions and door locks.
We work on cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleet vehicles. That matters in a city like Bellflower, where there are families with several drivers, landlords with tenant parking, and dealerships and commercial businesses along Lakewood Boulevard and Bellflower Boulevard. We are available 24/7, and we will talk you through what is realistic for your specific vehicle before any work starts.
How it works in Bellflower
- 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, key lost, key broken, or the car not recognizing your fob. Those details tell us what tools and key blanks to bring.
- 2
We confirm the job and the price factors
Before we start, we explain what the work involves and what affects the cost for your vehicle, so there are no surprises. If a job is not something we can do on-site, we tell you plainly.
- 3
We verify ownership
For your protection and ours, we ask for proof that the vehicle is yours, such as ID matching the registration or title. This is standard for any reputable locksmith and keeps your car from being opened for someone else.
- 4
We do the work at your vehicle
Whether it is a non-destructive lockout entry, cutting a key by code or from the lock, programming a transponder or fob, or repairing an ignition cylinder, the work is done where the car is parked, in a driveway, apartment lot or roadside.
- 5
We test everything before we leave
We check that the key turns, the doors lock and unlock, the remote functions, and the engine starts and runs. If you want spare keys made while we are there, that is the best time to do it.

What affects the price
- Type of service: a simple lockout is a different job from originating a key when all keys are lost or replacing a damaged ignition.
- Vehicle make, model and year: newer vehicles with encrypted transponders and smart keys need more equipment and programming than older mechanical-key vehicles.
- Key type: a basic metal key, a transponder key, a remote head key and a push-button proximity fob each carry different parts and programming costs.
- Time and location of the call: after-hours and overnight service is part of being 24/7, and the distance we drive within the service area can play a role.
- Number of keys: cutting and programming additional spares during the same visit is usually more efficient than a separate trip later.
- Condition of the existing lock or ignition: worn, broken or tampered components may need repair or replacement in addition to a new key.
Why Bellflower chooses us
- Fully mobile and 24/7: there is no shop to drive to, and no tow needed for most key and lockout problems.
- In business since 1987, with owner David Shar leading the work rather than handing every call to an unknown subcontractor.
- Coverage of the whole range: cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleet vehicles, so one call handles a family car and a work van.
- Straight talk about price factors up front, with no vague promises and no pressure to buy things you do not need.
- Ownership verification on every job, which protects you from the risk of your vehicle being opened for the wrong person.
- Experience across both residential and commercial work, helpful when a dealership, landlord or small business needs keys and locks handled together.
Automotive Locksmith across Bellflower
Bellflower is a post-war suburb with 1920s roots, and its streets reflect that mix. Near Downtown Bellflower and the Bellflower Boulevard corridor, and in the older Clearwater area, you will find vintage bungalows with one-car driveways and street parking. Mayfair and the large 1950s stucco tract neighborhoods have family homes where several drivers often share vehicles, which means lost or duplicated keys come up regularly. Along Bellflower Boulevard, 1960s and 70s apartment courts have shared lots where a locked-out resident needs help without a long wait for a tow.
Commuters and errand runners move across I-605, SR-91, Lakewood Boulevard and Alondra Boulevard, and we regularly meet drivers in parking areas near Simms Park and Caruthers Park, or in school lots around St. John Bosco High School. Lakewood Boulevard and Bellflower Boulevard are also lined with auto dealerships and commercial strips, where a business may need a replacement key or fob, or lock work after a break-in attempt on a company vehicle.
We serve Bellflower ZIP codes 90706 and 90707, and we are reachable around the clock at (323) 997-8867. If you are stuck in Bellflower with a locked door, a lost key or an ignition that will not turn, call and we will come to you.
