A home is only as secure as the locks on its doors, and in Camarillo those doors vary a lot. A 1970s tract house in Mission Oaks, a newer gated home in Spanish Hills, an older hillside place in Camarillo Heights and a standardized unit in Leisure Village each call for a slightly different approach. Our residential locksmith service covers all of them: rekeying, replacing worn or damaged hardware, repairing sticky or failing locks, and upgrading to stronger deadbolts or smart locks.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar built the business on straightforward, honest work. We are a mobile-only service. There is no storefront to visit, because the shop is the van: we bring the tools, key-cutting capability and common hardware to your driveway, at any hour, day or night.

Whether you just closed on a house and want every old key rendered useless, locked yourself out late at night after a drive on the 101, or simply have a deadbolt that has started to grind, we start by looking at what you actually have and recommend the least expensive fix that solves the problem. Sometimes that is a rekey, not a new lock, and we will say so.

How it works in Camarillo

  1. 1

    You call, we talk it through

    Call (323) 997-8867 any time. Tell us what is happening: a lockout, a lock that sticks, a new purchase, or a security concern. We ask about the door type and the brand of hardware if you know it, so we arrive prepared.

  2. 2

    We come to you

    Because we are fully mobile, a technician drives to your Camarillo address with tools and a range of common residential hardware on board. There is no shop to visit and no need to bring the lock to us.

  3. 3

    Inspect the door and hardware

    Before touching anything we check the lock, strike plate, door edge and frame. Many lock problems are really alignment or wear problems, and catching that early can save you from replacing hardware that is fine.

  4. 4

    Recommend the right fix

    We explain your options in plain language: rekey, repair, replace or upgrade. If a rekey makes sense, as it often does after a home purchase, we do not push new hardware. You decide before work begins.

  5. 5

    Do the work and test every key

    We rekey, install or repair, then cycle the lock repeatedly with each key and from both sides of the door. Smart locks are paired and tested so you know how to use them before we leave.

  6. 6

    Leave you set for the future

    We go over what was done, hand over your keys and suggest simple maintenance. If other doors on the property need attention, such as a back slider or garage entry, we mention it without pressure.

What affects the price

  • The type of work: a lockout entry, a rekey, a repair and a full hardware replacement involve different amounts of labor and parts.
  • The number of locks involved, since rekeying every exterior door on a home is a different job than one deadbolt.
  • The hardware itself: standard deadbolts, higher-security cylinders and smart locks vary widely in cost, and older or decorative hardware may be harder to source.
  • The condition of the door and frame, as a misaligned strike or worn door edge may need extra correction for the lock to work properly.
  • The time of day you call, because after-hours and emergency visits differ from scheduled daytime appointments.
  • Your location within the Camarillo area and how far the technician must travel to reach you.

Residential Locksmith across Camarillo

Camarillo's housing stock shapes the work we do. Across Mission Oaks and much of the city core, suburban single-family tract homes built from the 1960s through the 2000s often still have their original locks, and a rekey after a purchase, a divorce or a lost set of keys is one of the most common calls. We frequently pair these with a smart deadbolt installation for owners who want keyless entry. Spanish Hills has newer and partly gated homes, where owners tend to ask about upgraded deadbolts and smart locks that fit their entry doors.

Leisure Village, the large 55+ community, is largely built with standardized hardware, which makes simple rekeys and lockout help straightforward and efficient. Residents there sometimes need a calm, patient visit after being locked out, and we are glad to provide that at any hour. Up in Camarillo Heights, older semi-rural hillside houses can have aging locks, settled doors and gates that need careful adjustment, while in Old Town Camarillo near the historic district and the 1892 Camarillo Ranch House, period-style hardware sometimes calls for repair rather than replacement.

We work throughout 93010, 93011 and 93012, whether you are off Las Posas Rd, near Daily Dr or Carmen Dr, along Ventura Blvd, or just off the US-101 or SR-34 (Lewis Rd). We are mobile only, so the locksmith comes to your door. For the best response call (323) 997-8867 and tell us your address and what you need.
