A business lockout rarely happens at a convenient moment. A manager arrives to open the boutique and the key snaps in the cylinder. An employee closes up late and the door locks behind them with the keys inside. A lost key ring, a failed electronic reader or a swollen frame can all leave you outside your own business, with staff waiting, deliveries due and customers expecting you to be open. In Beverly Hills, where a storefront can carry high-value inventory and a tight schedule, an hour locked out costs real money.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar. We are fully mobile: there is no storefront to visit, because our work happens at your door. We handle commercial entry for retail shops, offices, professional suites and mixed-use buildings, and we aim to open the door without damaging it whenever the hardware allows.
Beverly Hills buildings often combine older and newer hardware, such as aluminum storefront doors with mortise cylinders, glass entries with panic devices, and offices with keypad or card readers. Each behaves differently when it fails. Knowing which kind of lock you have, and what the least invasive way in is, is most of the job. Once you are inside, we can also repair, rekey or replace whatever caused the lockout so it does not happen again.
How it works in Beverly Hills
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what kind of door and lock you have: aluminum storefront, glass door, wood office door, or a keypad or card system. Let us know if keys are lost, broken in the lock, or locked inside. We are available 24/7, so after-hours calls are routine.
- 2
Confirm you are authorized
Before opening any commercial door, we need reasonable assurance that you are the owner, manager or an authorized tenant. This protects you and your neighbors. Have identification or a lease, business license or similar proof of your connection to the space ready where possible.
- 3
Assess the lock and door
Our technician comes to you and looks at the hardware first. Storefront mortise cylinders, deadbolts, panic bars and electronic readers each call for a different approach. We choose the method that gets you in with the least risk to the door, frame and glass.
- 4
Open the door
We use professional entry techniques rather than force wherever possible. If the lock is damaged, worn or has a broken key stuck in it, we explain what we found and what it means for the entry method before we proceed.
- 5
Fix the cause
Once inside, we can extract a broken key, cut replacement keys, rekey the cylinder, repair a failing lock, or replace hardware. If a key was lost, rekeying means the missing key no longer works, which matters for a business with employees and inventory.
- 6
Test and secure before we leave
We operate the lock with the door open and closed, check that the latch and strike line up, and confirm that your keys or codes work. You should leave with a door that locks properly and a clear picture of what was done.

What affects the price
- The type of lock involved: a standard cylinder, a storefront mortise lock, a panic device or an electronic access system each take different tools and time.
- Whether the door can be opened without damage, or the lock itself is jammed, broken or tampered with and needs more careful work.
- The time of day. Late-night, weekend and holiday calls involve different demands on our availability than a weekday visit.
- Whether you also need follow-up work such as key extraction, rekeying, new keys or hardware replacement once you are inside.
- The location and access to the building, including parking, gated or secured lots, and multi-floor or suite entry.
- The number of doors or locks involved, for example a main entry plus a rear or interior office door.
Why Beverly Hills chooses us
- Fully mobile and available 24/7. We come to your business at any hour rather than asking you to visit a shop.
- In business since 1987, which means decades of experience with older mortise hardware as well as current commercial systems.
- The owner, David Shar, leads the work, so the standard for the job is set by the person whose name is on the business.
- We favor non-destructive entry and repair over replacement, which keeps original storefronts and period hardware intact where it makes sense.
- We can handle the lockout and the underlying fix in one visit: rekeying, key extraction, repair or new hardware.
- We verify authorization before opening a commercial door, which protects your property and keeps the process straightforward.
Business Lockout across Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills businesses span a wide range of building types. The Golden Triangle, with Rodeo Drive, Canon Drive and the streets around the Beverly Wilshire, is full of boutiques, galleries, salons and offices behind aluminum storefronts with mortise cylinders. An after-hours lockout at a boutique in this district is a scenario we understand well: the hardware is specific, the glass is valuable, and the goal is to get in cleanly without damaging the door. Many of these properties fall within ZIP code 90210, and we also serve businesses in 90211 and 90212 along Wilshire Boulevard and Santa Monica Boulevard.
Outside the central business district, commercial and professional spaces sit along Sunset Boulevard, Wilshire and Santa Monica Boulevard, and near Will Rogers Memorial Park and The Beverly Hills Hotel. Home offices and estate-based businesses are also common in The Flats, with its 1920s and 1930s period-revival homes, and in the gated hillside properties of Trousdale Estates and the Benedict Canyon area near Coldwater Canyon Drive. Some of these have original mortise hardware, keypad gates or smart locks that can complicate entry.
Because we are mobile only, we travel to wherever you are, whether that is a ground-floor shop on a busy street or a private office behind a gate. If you are locked out anywhere in Beverly Hills, call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the address, the type of door and what has happened.
