A Beverly Hills address often comes with more to protect than a standard deadbolt was ever designed for. Art, jewelry, documents, firearms, inventory and simple privacy all raise the stakes. High security locks answer that with hardened steel, tighter tolerances, anti-pick and anti-bump pin designs, drill-resistant inserts, and keys that cannot be copied at a hardware-store kiosk without authorization.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar has worked on everything from hillside gated estates to storefront doors on busy commercial streets. We are a mobile service only. There is no showroom to visit; we bring the hardware knowledge and the tools to your door, assess what you actually have, and recommend what makes sense.

Sometimes the best upgrade is not a full replacement. A 1920s mansion with original mortise hardware may be better served by restoring and rekeying what is there, or by adding a high security cylinder where the existing lock body allows it. We will tell you plainly which route fits your door, your insurance needs and your taste.

How it works in Beverly Hills

  1. 1

    Talk through your goals

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what you are protecting and where the weak points are: a front door, a service entrance, a pool house, a boutique storefront. We ask about your current hardware and who needs keys.

  2. 2

    On-site assessment

    We come to the property and look at the door, frame, strike, hinges and existing lock. A high security cylinder is only as strong as the door around it, so we check for thin jambs, short screws and weak strike plates.

  3. 3

    Choose the right system

    We explain options such as restricted keyways with patent-protected key control, drill-resistant and anti-bump cylinders, and compatibility with mortise bodies, deadbolts or smart lock setups. You decide the level of protection and key control.

  4. 4

    Installation and reinforcement

    We install the new locks, and where needed reinforce the strike, frame or door edge. On period homes we work carefully to avoid cosmetic damage to original doors and decorative hardware.

  5. 5

    Keying and testing

    We key the system to your needs, such as keyed-alike entries or a master key arrangement, then test every lock and key under normal use so nothing sticks or binds.

  6. 6

    Key control walkthrough

    We go over how restricted keys are duplicated, who is authorized, and what to do when a key is lost or an employee or contractor leaves.

What affects the price

  • The grade and brand of the cylinder or lock body, since restricted-keyway systems with key control cost more than standard hardware
  • The number of doors, gates or locks being upgraded and whether they are keyed alike or on a master system
  • Door and frame condition, including whether reinforcement of the strike, jamb or door edge is needed
  • Whether the work involves vintage mortise hardware that must be restored or adapted rather than swapped out
  • Integration with other equipment such as smart locks, keypad gates or safes
  • Time of service, since after-hours and emergency calls differ from scheduled appointments, and the number of extra keys or key cards requested

Why Beverly Hills chooses us

  • Fully mobile service: we come to your door in Beverly Hills, with no storefront and no need to bring locks to us
  • Serving Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, with owner David Shar personally involved
  • Respect for period hardware: we can preserve and rekey original mortise locks instead of pushing replacement
  • We assess the door and frame, not just the lock, because a strong cylinder on a weak jamb protects little
  • Experience across residential estates and commercial storefronts, including aluminum storefront mortise cylinders
  • Available 24/7 for urgent situations such as a lockout or a security breach, with straightforward explanations of factors that affect price

High Security Locks across Beverly Hills

Beverly Hills spans a wide range of properties, and the right security approach changes block by block. In The Flats, the 1920s and 1930s Spanish, Tudor and Georgian revival homes often still have original mortise hardware that owners want kept. We can restore those locks, rekey them, and add high security protection where the door allows. Up in Trousdale Estates, mid-century moderns with glass, pivot doors and driveway gates call for a different mix: high security rekeying, safe service and reprogramming of keypad gate entries so the whole property works together.

In the gated hillside estates of the Beverly Hills Post Office area and Benedict Canyon, long driveways and secluded entrances make key control especially important. Restricted keys limit who can have copies made, which matters when household staff, contractors and property managers come and go. We regularly travel along Sunset Blvd, Coldwater Canyon Dr and Benedict Canyon Dr to reach these properties, and serve ZIP codes 90210, 90211 and 90212.

In the Golden Triangle, boutiques near Rodeo Drive and Canon Dr often have aluminum storefront doors with mortise cylinders, where a quality high security cylinder is a practical upgrade and an after-hours lockout can happen at any time. Whether you are near Wilshire Blvd, Santa Monica Blvd, the Beverly Wilshire or Will Rogers Memorial Park, call (323) 997-8867 any hour.

High Security Locks in Beverly Hills — FAQs

What makes a lock high security?
High security locks use features like hardened pins and inserts, tight tolerances, anti-pick and anti-bump designs, drill-resistant components, and restricted keyways. Many also include key control so copies cannot be made freely.
Can you install high security locks on a vintage mansion in The Flats?
Often yes. Many original mortise locks can be restored, rekeyed or fitted with a high security cylinder where compatible, so the historic look stays intact. Call (323) 997-8867 and we will evaluate the door.
Will a high security lock stop all break-ins?
No lock is unbeatable. High security locks resist picking, bumping and drilling far better than standard hardware, but door, frame and strike strength matter too, which is why we inspect them during the visit.
Can you work on driveway gate keypads and safes too?
Yes. For properties like Trousdale Estates homes, we can pair high security rekeying with safe service and keypad gate reprogramming. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss what your property has.
Do you have a shop I can visit in Beverly Hills?
No. Crenshaw Lock Company is fully mobile only. We come to your home, estate or business at the time that suits you.
Can you upgrade locks at my Golden Triangle storefront?
Yes. We work on aluminum storefront doors and mortise cylinders and can install high security cylinders. We also handle after-hours lockouts, 24/7.
How are restricted keys different from regular keys?
Restricted keys use keyways and blanks that are controlled, so duplication generally requires authorization or a card. That limits unwanted copies by former staff or contractors.
How is the cost of high security locks determined?
Price depends on the lock grade, number of doors, door and frame condition, any restoration or integration work, and timing. We explain these factors before work begins. Call (323) 997-8867 to start.
