A business in Compton can't afford to sit behind a door that won't open, or one that won't lock. Whether you run a storefront on Compton Blvd or Long Beach Blvd, an office near the Civic Center, or a shop in the industrial pockets near Alameda St, a lock problem means lost sales, an exposed building, or both. Crenshaw Lock Company is fully mobile, so we bring the work to you at any hour.
David Shar has run the company since 1987, and our commercial work covers what Compton businesses actually use: storefront glass-door locks, roll-up gate padlocks and cylinders, rear service doors, office keying, exit hardware, and yard or fence gate locks. We repair what can be saved and replace what can't, and we explain the difference before we start.
We have no storefront for you to visit. You call, describe the door or gate and the problem, and a technician drives to your site. That setup keeps us focused on the job at your location rather than on a counter somewhere else.
How it works in Compton
- 1
You call, we talk through the problem
Call (323) 997-8867 any time. Tell us what kind of door or gate it is, whether it's a lockout, a broken key, a damaged lock after a break-in attempt, or a planned upgrade. That helps us bring the right hardware.
- 2
We come to your business
Our technician travels to your location in Compton, whether it's a strip-mall unit, an office suite or a warehouse. We're mobile only, so all the tools and common hardware ride with us.
- 3
Verify authority and assess the lock
Before opening or changing anything, we confirm you're the owner, manager or authorized tenant. Then we look at the lock, door, frame, and any signs of forced entry so we know what is actually wrong.
- 4
Open, repair or replace
We open lockouts with methods that avoid damaging the door where possible. If a cylinder, latch, hasp or padlock is worn or compromised, we explain the options and replace only what needs it.
- 5
Rekey or set up key control
After a break-in, an employee change or a tenant turnover, we can rekey so old keys stop working. For multi-door sites we can discuss keying several locks to a coordinated system.
- 6
Test and hand over
We test every lock and gate repeatedly, make sure keys work smoothly, and walk you through what was done before we leave your site secured.

What affects the price
- The type of job: a standard lockout, a rekey, a hardware replacement and a multi-door keying project involve very different amounts of labor and parts.
- The hardware itself, such as a basic storefront cylinder versus high-security cylinders, commercial-grade deadbolts, panic or exit hardware, or heavy-duty roll-up gate locks.
- The number of doors, gates or locks involved, since a site with many openings takes longer and may need coordinated keying.
- Condition of the door, frame or gate, including damage from forced entry that needs repair alongside the lock.
- Time of day and urgency, because after-hours and emergency calls are handled differently from scheduled work.
- Access and location details, such as a rear loading door, fenced yard or hard-to-reach gate that affects how the work is done.
Why Compton chooses us
- Fully mobile and available 24/7, so a lockout at a closing-time storefront or an overnight break-in gets a response without waiting for shop hours.
- In business since 1987 under owner and lead technician David Shar, with long experience across Los Angeles-area commercial properties.
- We handle the hardware Compton businesses really have, from storefront doors to roll-up gates and industrial yard locks.
- We repair before we replace when a lock is still sound, and tell you plainly when it isn't.
- We confirm authorization before opening any commercial door, which protects you and your landlord.
- No storefront and no pretense: you speak with the people who do the work, and we come to you.
Commercial Locksmith across Compton
Compton's commercial landscape is mixed. Retail strips run along Compton Blvd and Long Beach Blvd, offices cluster around the Compton Civic Center & City Hall and Downtown Compton, and industrial and warehouse space sits near Alameda St. Shopping near Gateway Towne Center brings its own mix of storefronts and service doors. We work across ZIP codes 90220, 90221 and 90222.
A typical call might be an emergency storefront lockout near Gateway Towne Center, or a worn padlock on a roll-up gate that needs replacing before the next closing. Businesses near Compton College or Compton/Woodley Airport may have service doors, fenced lots and gates that need dependable locks as well.
Because the city is tied together by I-710, I-105, SR-91, Rosecrans Ave and Central Ave, we reach businesses in Downtown Compton, Sunny Cove, Leland and the Richland Farms area, including commercial or agricultural properties with gate and outbuilding locks.
