Commerce is known for warehouses, rail and freeways, but people live here too, and homes in pockets like Rosewood Park and Bandini have their own lock needs. Many are small 1940s and 1950s stucco bungalows and post-war tract houses. After decades of use, the original hardware is often worn: deadbolts that stick, knob-in-lockset hardware that barely latches, and keys that have been copied from copies so many times they no longer turn smoothly.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, under owner and lead technician David Shar. Our residential work covers the full range: getting you back inside after a lockout, rekeying so old keys stop working, replacing failed locks, repairing damaged strike plates and jambs, and upgrading entry doors to something sturdier.

We are mobile only. There is no storefront to visit, so we bring tools, hardware and key-cutting capability to your driveway or front step. Because we work around the clock, a lock that fails at 2 a.m. after a late shift near the freeway is still something you can call about right away.

How it works in Commerce

  1. 1

    You call and describe the problem

    Phone (323) 997-8867 and tell us what is happening: locked out, a key that snapped, a deadbolt that will not turn, or a lock you simply want changed. Give us your address in Commerce and the type of door, and we will point you in the right direction before we head out.

  2. 2

    We come to your home

    Our technician travels to you in a fully mobile setup, whether you are in a bungalow in Rosewood Park, a tract home in Bandini, or elsewhere in the city. We are available day and night, and we do not make any arrival-time promises we cannot keep.

  3. 3

    We assess the door and the lock

    Before any work, we look at the lock, the door, the latch and the jamb. With older Commerce homes, a lock that seems broken is sometimes a swollen door, a shifted strike plate, or a deadbolt that has seized in the jamb. Knowing the real cause keeps you from buying parts you do not need.

  4. 4

    We open, repair, rekey or replace

    For lockouts we aim to get you in without damaging the door whenever it is practical. If a lock is salvageable, we repair or rekey it so old keys no longer work. If it is worn out or seized, we replace it with hardware suited to your door.

  5. 5

    We test everything and hand over keys

    We check that the bolt throws fully, the latch catches cleanly and every key works smoothly. You get your new keys in hand, and we talk through any weak points we noticed, such as a short strike screw or a loose door frame, so you can decide whether to address them.

What affects the price

  • Whether the job is a lockout, a rekey, a repair or a full replacement, since each takes different time and parts
  • The type and condition of the existing hardware, including older knob-in-lockset units and deadbolts that have seized
  • The grade and brand of any new deadbolts, handlesets or smart locks you choose
  • The number of locks involved, such as rekeying front, back and side doors to one key
  • Door and jamb condition, including any repair of a damaged strike plate or frame needed for the lock to work
  • Time of day and the location of the service call, since we operate around the clock

Why Commerce chooses us

  • Serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, with long experience on mid-century homes like those in Rosewood Park and Bandini
  • Owner-led by David Shar, so the standards come from someone who has been in the trade for decades
  • Open 24/7, which suits shift workers and people living near the freeways who keep irregular hours
  • A repair-first mindset: we rekey or fix what is sound and only replace what is truly worn out
  • Experience in a city with a heavy commercial and industrial side, so we understand higher-grade hardware if you want to bring that security home

Residential Locksmith across Commerce

Commerce sits between the I-5, I-710 and SR-60 corridors, with Washington Blvd, Atlantic Blvd, Telegraph Rd and Eastern Ave carrying much of the traffic. Most of the land is industrial, including warehouses, distribution centers and the BNSF Hobart intermodal yard, so the residential areas feel tucked away. Rosewood Park, near the park itself, and Bandini hold many of the small stucco bungalows and post-war tract homes we are called to.

A typical call here might be a Rosewood Park homeowner locked out of a 1950s bungalow after the original deadbolt seized in the jamb. Hardware that old can wear until the bolt drags against the strike, and one day it simply stops. We can get you inside, then replace the lock and check the jamb so it does not happen again. Homes in Bristow Park and near the Citadel district have their own mix of aging hardware and often benefit from a full rekey when someone moves in.

We serve addresses across Commerce, including ZIP codes 90040, 90022 and 90023, as well as 90091. Whether you live a short drive from the Citadel Outlets, near the Commerce Library, or close to Commerce Casino, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.

Residential Locksmith in Commerce — FAQs

Do you offer residential locksmith service in Commerce at night?
Yes. Crenshaw Lock Company is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and is fully mobile. Call (323) 997-8867 at any hour and we will come to your home in Commerce.
My old deadbolt seized and I am locked out of my bungalow. Can you help?
Yes. Worn deadbolts in 1940s and 1950s homes often bind in the jamb. We work to get you in with as little damage as practical, then replace the lock and check the strike and jamb. Call (323) 997-8867.
Should I rekey or replace my locks?
If the locks are in good shape, rekeying is often enough and makes old keys useless. If they are worn, loose or seized, replacement makes more sense. We assess on site and recommend the sensible option.
I just moved into a home in Rosewood Park or Bandini. What should I do about the locks?
Rekey every exterior door so previous keys no longer work. Older homes may also need a deadbolt upgrade or strike plate repair. We can do all of it in one visit.
How much does a residential locksmith visit cost?
It depends on the service type, the hardware, the number of locks, the condition of the door and the time of the call. Phone (323) 997-8867, describe the job, and we can explain what will affect the price.
Do you have a shop I can visit?
No. We are mobile only, and there is no storefront. Our technician brings the tools and hardware to your home in Commerce.
Can you upgrade my front door security?
Yes. We install stronger deadbolts, reinforced strike plates and other upgrades, and we can talk through options that fit your door. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your situation.
Do you work on both houses and apartments in Commerce?
Yes, we handle residential locks for houses and other homes. For rental units, we recommend confirming with your landlord or property manager before changing locks.
