A Tesla doesn't use a traditional key. Model 3 and Model Y owners usually rely on a key card, the phone key in the Tesla app, and sometimes an optional fob. When the card is lost, the phone is dead or stolen, or the car won't recognize anything you carry, you can be stuck in a parking lot with a car that won't unlock or start. We handle these situations at the vehicle, so there's no towing to a shop.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and our service is fully mobile. For a Tesla in El Monte, we start by confirming your ownership and the vehicle's VIN, which tells us exactly which key setup your car needs. Whether you've lost one card, want a spare before one goes missing, or have no working access at all, we'll explain the options on site before work begins.
How it works in El Monte

Call and describe the situation

Verify ownership and VIN
We ask for proof that the car is yours and check the VIN. The VIN is how we confirm exactly which keys your Tesla uses, rather than guessing from the make alone.

Replace or add keys
Depending on your situation, we set up a replacement key card, a spare, or an optional fob, and we test that each one works with the car before we finish.

We've helped people near Downtown El Monte and the Valley Mall, where a Tesla can be buried in a big parking lot after a long shopping day, and in residential Norwood and Mountain View, where a lost key card often means a car stuck in the driveway or on the street. We also serve commuters who leave cars near the El Monte Bus Station at Santa Anita Ave and Ramona Blvd or the El Monte Metrolink station on Railroad St, where a missing card or dead phone can strand you after the train or bus ride.
We cover all of El Monte, including ZIP codes 91731, 91732, 91733, 91734 and 91735. Whether you're parked near Gibson Mariposa Park, the El Monte Aquatic Center, Santa Fe Trail Historical Park, or along the Rio Hondo and San Gabriel River corridor, call (323) 997-8867 and we'll come to you.
