Being locked out of your house is rarely convenient. In Camarillo it tends to happen at familiar moments: you step out to grab the mail or take the trash to the curb and the door swings shut behind you, a child pulls the front door closed after school, or you come home after an evening at the Camarillo Premium Outlets and realize the keys are on the kitchen counter. Whatever the cause, the goal is the same: get you back inside quickly and with the lock, door and frame intact.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and our work is entirely mobile. There is no shop to drive to and no counter to wait at. A technician comes to your home, apartment or condo with the tools to open the door on location. Because we operate around the clock, a lockout at midnight is handled the same way as one at noon.

Most residential lockouts can be solved without drilling or cutting anything. Using non-destructive entry methods, a trained technician can usually open standard deadbolts, knob locks and lever handles and leave them working as before. If a lock turns out to be broken or worn out, we will tell you plainly and talk through repair or replacement options so you can decide.

How it works in Camarillo

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Phone (323) 997-8867 and tell us your address, the type of door (front, back, sliding or garage entry), and what kind of lock you see. Knowing whether it is a deadbolt, a knob or a smart lock helps us bring the right tools.

  2. 2

    Confirm who you are

    Before opening any door, the technician will ask for reasonable proof that you live there or have the right to enter, such as an ID with the address or a piece of mail. This protects you and your neighbors.

  3. 3

    Assess the lock and door

    On arrival we look at the lock type, the condition of the door and frame, and whether anything like a bent latch or swollen door is causing the problem. That decides which entry method is least likely to cause damage.

  4. 4

    Open the door without damage

    We use non-destructive techniques first, such as picking, bypass tools or latch manipulation. Drilling is a last resort, used only when a lock is broken or defeated, and we explain it before doing it.

  5. 5

    Check the lock and offer next steps

    Once you are inside, we make sure the lock operates smoothly. If keys are lost, we can rekey the lock or discuss a replacement or upgrade, including smart deadbolts, but only if you want it.

What affects the price

  • Time of day and day of the week, since we are available overnight, on weekends and on holidays
  • Your location within Camarillo and the surrounding area, which affects travel to your door
  • The type and condition of the lock, such as a standard deadbolt versus a high-security or smart lock
  • Whether the door is a front door, sliding door or a secondary entry, since each is opened differently
  • Whether the lock needs repair, rekeying or replacement after we get you in
  • Any special circumstances, such as a gated entrance or a damaged door frame that complicates access

Why Camarillo chooses us

  • Fully mobile, so help comes to your address instead of you hunting for a storefront that does not exist
  • In business since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar, so the work draws on decades of hands-on experience
  • Damage-free entry is our first approach; drilling is reserved for locks that are already broken
  • Available 24/7, including nights, weekends and holidays, with no after-hours guesswork about whether someone will answer
  • Familiarity with the range of Camarillo housing, from standardized hardware in senior communities to older hillside homes with aging locks
  • We explain options before doing extra work, and lockout service does not have to turn into a lock replacement

House Lockout across Camarillo

Camarillo's housing varies a lot from one part of town to the next, and that shapes how a lockout call goes. Mission Oaks and much of the city core are suburban tract neighborhoods built between the 1960s and 2000s, where the front door usually has a standard deadbolt and knob that open cleanly with non-destructive methods. In Spanish Hills, newer and partly gated homes can add a wrinkle, since getting to the door may mean coordinating access at the gate. Up in Camarillo Heights, older semi-rural hillside houses sometimes have worn or mismatched hardware that deserves a closer look once you are back inside.

Leisure Village, the large 55+ community, is a regular source of lockout calls. Its standardized senior housing means we know what to expect from many of the doors, and it is also a common place for simple rekeys when a key goes missing. In Old Town Camarillo, the historic district around the 1892 Camarillo Ranch House reminds us that older buildings can carry period hardware that calls for a gentler hand than a modern deadbolt.

We serve addresses across ZIP codes 93010, 93012 and 93011, reaching homes off US-101, SR-34 (Lewis Rd), Las Posas Rd, Ventura Blvd, Daily Dr, Carmen Dr and Pleasant Valley Rd. Wherever you are locked out in Camarillo, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.

House Lockout in Camarillo — FAQs

Will you damage my door or lock to get me in?
Our first approach is always non-destructive entry, which usually leaves the lock and door unharmed. Drilling is only used if a lock is already broken or cannot be opened any other way, and we will explain that before we do it. Call (323) 997-8867 to describe your lock.
Are you available at night and on weekends in Camarillo?
Yes. Crenshaw Lock Company is available 24/7, including overnight, weekends and holidays, and we are fully mobile so we come to your home. Call (323) 997-8867 any time.
Do I need to prove I live at the address?
Yes, we ask for reasonable proof such as an ID showing the address or a piece of mail. It is a standard protection so that we only open doors for people with a right to be there.
Can you help if I live in Leisure Village?
Yes. We regularly help residents of Leisure Village with lockouts and simple rekeys. If you are locked out or have lost a key, call (323) 997-8867 and let us know your address.
What if I am locked out of a sliding door or back door?
We can open sliding doors, back doors and secondary entries as well as front doors. Tell us which door is locked and what kind of lock it has when you call so we can bring suitable tools.
What determines the cost of a house lockout?
Pricing depends on factors like time of day, your location in Camarillo, the type of lock and whether any repair or rekeying is needed. We do not quote numbers on this page, so call us to talk through your situation.
Should I rekey my locks after losing my keys?
If your keys were lost or stolen, rekeying is a sensible step because it makes the old keys useless without replacing the hardware. We can rekey after the lockout, or you can decide to leave it for later.
Can you open a smart lock or keypad deadbolt?
Often yes, depending on the model and what has failed, such as a dead battery or a mechanical fault. Describe the lock when you call (323) 997-8867 and we will tell you what to expect.
