Smart lock with a lit keypad on a front door at night

Open now(323) 997-8867

A smart lock sounds like a simple swap, but in Canoga Park the door it goes on matters as much as the lock. This community was developed early, so a single afternoon of calls can take you from a 1920s Owensmouth-era bungalow with an original mortise lock, to a 1950s dingbat apartment with a tired builder-grade deadbolt, to an aluminum-storefront shop on Sherman Way. Each of those doors needs a different approach to keyless hardware.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead tech David Shar has seen how smart locks behave on every kind of door. We install keypad deadbolts, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth locks, and electronic retrofits, and we set up the app, codes and settings so the lock works the way you actually live. If a smart lock you already own is acting up, we troubleshoot that too.

We are a mobile service only. There is no storefront to visit, so we bring tools, hardware options and know-how to your door at any hour. We would rather tell you honestly that a door needs a small repair first, or that a vintage lock is better kept and rekeyed, than sell you something that will frustrate you in a month.

How it works in Canoga Park

1
Talk through the door and your goals
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what you want: keypad entry, phone control, guest codes, or a lock that works with a system you already use. We ask about the door type, whether it is a house, apartment or storefront, and any rental or landlord rules that might apply.
2
Inspect the door and existing hardware
On site we check the door thickness, bore holes, strike plate, latch alignment and frame. Older Canoga Park homes sometimes have doors that have shifted or been drilled several times, and a smart lock will not run well on a door that binds. We point out anything to correct first.
3
Choose a lock that fits the door
We go over options in plain language: fully keyless keypads, lock-and-key hybrids that keep a physical backup, and retrofit units that work with your existing deadbolt. For a vintage mortise door we will tell you if a smart lock is a poor match and suggest alternatives that keep the original character.
4
Install and align the hardware
We remove the old lock, fit the new one, and adjust the strike and latch so the bolt throws fully without force. Smart locks rely on smooth, precise motion, so alignment is part of the job, not an afterthought.
5
Set up codes, app and settings
We pair the lock with your phone if it supports it, create user codes, and walk you through auto-lock, guest access and battery alerts. We make sure you know how to get in if the batteries die or the network drops.
6
Test and hand off
Before we leave, we cycle the lock repeatedly from inside, outside and through the app. We leave you with a working setup, a physical backup plan where the hardware allows one, and clear notes on maintenance.

What affects the price

The type of lock chosen: a basic keypad deadbolt, a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth model, and a retrofit unit all involve different hardware and setup effort.
The condition of the door and frame, including whether the bore, latch or strike plate needs adjustment or repair before the lock will operate smoothly.
How many doors are being done and whether they should be keyed alike or share the same access codes.
Complexity of setup, such as linking to an existing smart home system, creating multiple user codes, or configuring access for a small business.
Whether the job involves removing and disposing of an old or damaged lock, such as a seized builder-grade deadbolt.
The time of day or night you need us, since we are available 24/7 and after-hours calls differ from scheduled appointments.

We set up the whole system, including codes, app pairing and backup entry, instead of just bolting a lock to the door.

Owner-led standards: David Shar built this business over decades and expects the same care on every job.

Smart Lock Installation across Canoga Park

Canoga Park has a layered housing story, and it shapes how smart locks are installed here. Around the original Owensmouth townsite, which dates to 1912, you will find stucco and Spanish bungalows from the 1910s through the 1930s. Many still have original mortise or pre-1960 lever locks. We often suggest keeping that vintage hardware, rekeying it, and adding keyless convenience in a way that suits the door, perhaps at a secondary entry or gate.

Through much of the neighborhood, including streets off Sherman Way, you will see 1950s and 60s tract homes and dingbat apartments with aging builder-grade deadbolts. Those are excellent candidates for a smart lock upgrade, particularly for renters and landlords who want to stop juggling copied keys. In the Gault Street and Topanga area near Warner Center, busy households and people commuting up Topanga Canyon Blvd or onto the 101 often like guest codes and auto-lock for the days nobody is home to answer the door.

Along the Sherman Way commercial corridor, mid-century aluminum-storefront shops often have mortise locks and panic hardware, and keypad or electronic access can simplify life after staff turnover. We serve ZIP codes 91303, 91304, 91305 and 91309, from near the Madrid Theatre and the historic downtown district to the streets around Canoga Park High School, Lanark Park and the edge of Westfield Topanga. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour.
