A smart lock looks simple on the box, but in Beverly Hills the doors rarely are. A 1920s Spanish revival in The Flats may have a solid wood door with original mortise hardware. A mid-century home in Trousdale Estates may have a wide pivot or glass-heavy entry. A hillside estate near Benedict Canyon may have a gated driveway, a guest house and a side entry that all need to work together. Getting a smart lock to fit, look right and work reliably takes some judgment about the door itself.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead tech David Shar has seen smart locks go from novelty to routine. We install keypad deadbolts, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth locks, fingerprint models and keyless handlesets, and we also help with locks someone else installed that will not pair, will not hold a code or keep draining batteries.

We are a mobile-only business with no storefront to visit. We bring the tools and a working knowledge of lock hardware to your property at any hour. We will tell you honestly when a smart lock suits a door and when a better option is a high-security mechanical lock, a keypad on a gate, or keeping the original hardware and simply rekeying it.

How it works in Beverly Hills

  1. 1

    Talk through the door and your goals

    We start by learning which door it is, how many people need access, and whether you want app control, codes, fingerprints or a simple keypad. We also ask about your Wi-Fi, smart-home system and any existing alarm.

  2. 2

    Inspect the door, frame and existing hardware

    On site we check the door thickness, bore holes, backset, strike alignment and the condition of the latch. A door that sticks or sags will make any electronic lock unreliable, so we address that first. On older homes we look at whether original mortise hardware can stay.

  3. 3

    Recommend a fitting lock

    We suggest models that match the door, finish and how you live. We discuss battery life, a physical key backup, and how the lock behaves if the batteries die or the network drops.

  4. 4

    Install and align

    We mount the lock, fit the strike and test the bolt throw by hand so it moves freely without forcing. Clean alignment protects the motor and extends battery life.

  5. 5

    Program codes and pair the app

    We set up user codes, connect the lock to your phone or home system, and test each function. We remove any default codes and show you how to add or delete guests.

  6. 6

    Walk you through use and troubleshooting

    Before leaving we demonstrate manual override, battery replacement and what the indicator lights mean, so you are not stuck the first time something behaves unexpectedly.

What affects the price

  • The lock model you choose, since keypad deadbolts, Wi-Fi locks, fingerprint units and full handlesets differ widely in cost.
  • How many doors or entry points are being converted, including side doors, guest houses and gates.
  • The condition of the door and frame, as drilling, strike repair or alignment work adds labor.
  • Whether original or mortise hardware is being adapted, preserved or replaced, which can call for different parts and more careful work.
  • Integration needs, such as connecting to a smart-home hub, an existing alarm or a driveway gate keypad.
  • The time of day of the visit, since after-hours and emergency calls are handled differently from scheduled work.

Why Beverly Hills chooses us

  • Mobile service only, so we work at your door instead of asking you to bring anything anywhere.
  • Serving the area since 1987, with an owner-led approach and hands-on lock knowledge beyond reading a manual.
  • Willingness to say no to a smart lock when original mortise hardware or a mechanical high-security lock is the better choice.
  • Experience with the mix of hardware found around Beverly Hills, from period-revival mortise sets to modern keypad and gate systems.
  • Setup that includes code cleanup and a walkthrough, not just mounting the lock and leaving.
  • Available 24/7 for installation problems, locked-out situations or a smart lock that stops responding.

Smart Lock Installation across Beverly Hills

Beverly Hills homes call for different approaches depending on the neighborhood. In The Flats, many 1920s and 1930s Spanish, Tudor and Georgian houses have beautiful original hardware. Owners often prefer to keep it, and we can pair that with a discreet keypad on a secondary door or rekey the original lock instead of replacing it. In Trousdale Estates, mid-century homes often have long driveways and gated entries, and we handle smart entry locks along with driveway gate keypad reprogramming and related rekey work.

Further up toward Benedict Canyon and Coldwater Canyon Drive, gated hillside properties in the BHPO area often have several entry points that benefit from a consistent access setup. Condo residents near Wilshire Boulevard and the Beverly Wilshire have their own considerations, such as building rules about lock changes and door finishes, which we recommend confirming with management before work starts. In the Golden Triangle near Rodeo Drive and Canon Drive, boutiques with aluminum storefronts and mortise cylinders need a different solution than a home, so we look carefully at what the door can accept.

We serve ZIP codes 90210, 90211 and 90212, from the streets near Will Rogers Memorial Park and Greystone Mansion to the stretches along Santa Monica Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and we will come to you.

Smart Lock Installation in Beverly Hills — FAQs

Can you install a smart lock on a historic Beverly Hills home?
Often yes, but it depends on the door. Many 1920s homes in The Flats have mortise locks that owners want to keep. We may add a keypad to a secondary entry, or rekey the original lock. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your door.
Do smart locks work with my existing key?
Many models include a physical key override, and some can be keyed to match other locks. We can talk through options so you are not carrying extra keys.
What happens if the batteries die or the Wi-Fi goes out?
Most smart locks keep working with codes or a physical key even when the network is down. We show you the battery location and any emergency power or key backup during setup.
Can you set up a keypad for my driveway gate?
We can work on keypad and intercom gate access, including reprogramming codes, which is common in Trousdale Estates and hillside areas. Gate systems vary, so call (323) 997-8867 with the make if you know it.
Will you fix a smart lock someone else installed?
Yes. We troubleshoot locks that will not pair, misalign, drain batteries quickly or lose codes. Often the problem is door alignment or setup rather than the lock itself.
Can a smart lock go on a commercial storefront?
Sometimes. Aluminum storefront doors with mortise cylinders, like many in the Golden Triangle, limit what fits. We evaluate the door and suggest an electronic option if it makes sense.
Do you offer emergency help if my smart lock locks me out?
Yes. We are 24/7 and fully mobile, so call (323) 997-8867 any time. We can help you regain entry and sort out the lock.
Do I need to be home during installation?
An adult who can authorize the work should be present, since we need to test the lock, set up codes and walk you through using it before we finish.
