A lock that sticks, spins loosely, or needs a second shove to latch is usually telling you something. Often it is a small fix: a worn cylinder, a strike plate that has drifted out of line, or a latch that has swelled with the seasons. In Calabasas, where front doors are often heavy and many homes have gates, smart locks and alarm integration, a failing lock can turn into a lockout without warning.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and our work is fully mobile. There is no storefront to drive to. A technician comes to your door with tools and parts, looks at what is actually wrong, and repairs the lock where possible instead of pushing a replacement you may not need.

We are available around the clock, which matters when a deadbolt jams at night or a latch fails before you leave for the 101. Owner and lead tech David Shar built the company on honest diagnosis, and that approach guides how we handle repairs across Calabasas.

How it works in Calabasas

  1. 1

    Tell us what the lock is doing

    Call (323) 997-8867 and describe the symptoms: does the key stick, does the bolt not fully extend, is the handle loose, or does the door need lifting to latch? Those details help us bring the right parts.

  2. 2

    Inspect the lock and the door

    Many lock problems are really door problems. We check the cylinder, the latch and bolt, the strike plate, the hinges and the door alignment to find the true cause rather than guessing.

  3. 3

    Repair before replacing

    Where it makes sense, we clean and lubricate, adjust or re-seat the strike, tighten or replace worn internal parts, and realign the bolt. If a lock is beyond saving, we explain why and your options before anything is replaced.

  4. 4

    Handle specialty hardware

    Multipoint locks on newer European-style doors, driveway gate locks, and smart locks with a mechanical override each need different care. We work with the mechanical side and note when a keypad or electronic issue needs the manufacturer or an alarm installer.

  5. 5

    Test and hand back

    We cycle the lock repeatedly from both sides with the door open and closed, confirm every key works smoothly, and show you what was done so you know how to spot early warning signs.

What affects the price

  • The type of lock involved, such as a standard deadbolt, a handle set, a multipoint lock or a gate lock, since each takes different work and parts.
  • Whether the cause is the lock itself or the door, frame or strike plate, which changes how much adjustment is required.
  • The extent of wear or damage, and whether internal parts can be repaired or the lock needs to be replaced.
  • How many locks need attention in one visit, since several repairs at a single property are handled together.
  • The time of day or night of the service call, because we are available 24/7.
  • Whether a lockout has to be resolved first or the lock can be repaired with the door still accessible.

Why Calabasas chooses us

  • Fully mobile service: we bring the workshop to your door anywhere in Calabasas, with no storefront needed.
  • Available 24/7, so a jammed deadbolt at midnight gets the same attention as one in the afternoon.
  • Serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, with experience across older tract hardware and newer high-security doors.
  • A repair-first mindset: we explain what failed and only recommend replacement when repair would not hold up.
  • Familiar with the gated-community routine, including coordinating around gatehouses and HOA access.
  • Comfortable with multipoint locks, gate locks and mechanical overrides on smart locks, not just basic deadbolts.

Lock Repair across Calabasas

Calabasas homes put locks through a lot. In The Oaks, the guard-gated community, a failed smart lock can leave a resident stuck outside after already clearing the gatehouse. In that situation we use the mechanical override, repair or reset the lock, and reprogram it as needed. In Calabasas Hills and Mulwood, many Mediterranean and Tuscan tract homes have heavy entry doors that settle over time, which is a common cause of bolts that rub or latches that miss the strike.

Hillside custom estates often have more than one thing to service at once: a driveway gate lock, a front multipoint lock, and sometimes a floor safe, particularly after a change in household staff. Newer European multipoint locks are different from a standard deadbolt, and we treat them that way. Older 1970s-80s tract homes in the area are more likely to need worn cylinders or loose hardware addressed. Properties near The Commons at Calabasas and Old Town Calabasas along Calabasas Rd also include aluminum-storefront and retail doors with their own hardware.

We work throughout ZIP code 91302, from homes off Las Virgenes Road and Parkway Calabasas to properties along Mulholland Hwy, Old Topanga Canyon Rd and near King Gillette Ranch and Calabasas Lake. Realtors with a gated-community listing can also call us to repair or rekey locks while a lockbox is arranged through the HOA gatehouse. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour.

Lock Repair in Calabasas — FAQs

Can you repair a lock instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. Sticking, loose or misaligned locks can frequently be fixed by cleaning, adjusting or replacing worn parts. If replacement is the better choice, we tell you why. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your lock.
Do you offer lock repair in Calabasas at night?
Yes. We are a 24/7 mobile locksmith, so you can call (323) 997-8867 at any hour. We do not make timing promises, but we are available around the clock.
My deadbolt won't fully extend. What causes that?
Usually the bolt is hitting a misaligned strike plate or the door has shifted. Heavy doors in Calabasas tract homes commonly settle. We check the door and frame as well as the lock.
Can you help if my smart lock fails and I'm locked out in The Oaks?
We can work with the mechanical override, get you in, and repair or reprogram the lock as appropriate. Electronic or app issues may need the manufacturer. Call (323) 997-8867.
Do you service multipoint locks and gate locks?
Yes. We repair multipoint locks on newer doors and driveway gate locks, and can service a floor safe at the same visit, depending on the problem.
Do I need to come to a shop?
No. We are fully mobile and have no storefront. The repair happens at your home or property.
Can you repair locks on a listing in a gated community?
Yes. We can repair or rekey locks for a realtor, and we coordinate with the HOA gatehouse for access and lockbox arrangements.
How do I know whether the problem is the lock or the door?
Signs include a key that turns hard only when the door is closed, or a latch that needs lifting. We test both during inspection so you pay to fix the real cause.
