El Segundo is an unusual place to run a business. Within a couple of square miles you have a refinery, an Air Force base, corporate campuses, creative offices in converted industrial buildings, and a walkable Main Street of small shops. Each of those has different security needs, and a locksmith who treats them all the same will leave someone with the wrong hardware. Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and commercial work has always been a big part of what owner and lead technician David Shar and the team do.

We are fully mobile. There is no storefront to visit; we bring the tools, key-cutting equipment and common commercial hardware to your site. That matters for businesses, because the people who need a locksmith are often the ones who can't leave: a facilities manager covering a building after hours, a shop owner waiting by a door that won't latch, or a tenant who just learned an employee left with keys.

Our commercial work covers lockouts, rekeying, master-key system design, panic and exit hardware, door closers, cam locks on file cabinets and desks, and electronic access-control upgrades. We explain what we find in plain language and let you decide how far to go, whether that's a quick rekey tonight or a phased upgrade across a multi-suite building.

How it works in El Segundo

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what kind of building it is, what the doors and locks are, and what has happened: a lockout, a staff change, a failed latch or a planned upgrade. We are available 24/7, so after-hours calls are normal for us.

  2. 2

    On-site assessment

    A technician comes to your El Segundo location and looks at the doors, frames, hardware and any existing key or access system. We check whether the problem is the lock, the door alignment, the closer or the keying, so you only pay to fix what is actually wrong.

  3. 3

    Clear options before work begins

    We lay out the realistic choices, such as rekeying versus replacing, a restricted keyway versus standard, or a keypad versus a networked reader. You approve the scope before we start.

  4. 4

    Installation, rekeying or repair

    We do the work on site, whether that is re-pinning interior office cylinders, installing a master-key hierarchy, servicing cam locks on file cabinets, or fitting new exit hardware. Doors are tested for smooth operation and proper latching.

  5. 5

    Key control and handoff

    We cut and label keys, tell you which keys open what, and talk through how to track who holds them. For master-key systems we explain how the structure can be expanded later without starting over.

  6. 6

    Follow-up support

    If a door sticks, a key binds or a new employee needs access later, call us again. We keep the details of what we installed in mind so adjustments are straightforward.

What affects the price

  • Type of work: a simple lockout or single-door rekey is a different scope than designing a master-key system for a multi-suite building.
  • Number of doors, cylinders and keys involved, including interior offices, suite entries, and file cabinets or desks with cam locks.
  • Hardware grade and keyway: restricted or high-security cylinders, commercial-grade exit devices and closers cost more than standard hardware but offer stronger key control and durability.
  • Electronic access control: readers, keypads, controllers, door position sensors and integration with existing systems all affect scope.
  • Condition of doors and frames: misaligned, warped or damaged doors may need adjustment or repair before new hardware will work properly.
  • Timing and access: after-hours or emergency calls and sites with restricted entry or escort requirements can change how a job is scheduled.

Why El Segundo chooses us

  • Fully mobile, 24/7 service, so work can happen after staff leave rather than during business hours.
  • In business since 1987, with David Shar leading the team and commercial work as a long-standing part of the trade.
  • Comfortable with both traditional mechanical master-key systems and electronic access control, so recommendations are not pushed toward just one.
  • We handle the small details too, such as file-cabinet and cam-lock service, interior office rekeying and door closers, not only front-door deadbolts.
  • Straightforward explanations and scope approval before work starts, with no surprise add-ons.
  • We can work around the needs of campuses, creative offices and industrial sites, including after-hours rekeying following staff changes.

Commercial Locksmith across El Segundo

El Segundo splits into two worlds on either side of Sepulveda Blvd. East of it, large corporate and aerospace campuses sit near Aviation Blvd, El Segundo Blvd and Imperial Hwy, close to the Los Angeles Air Force Base and Mattel headquarters. Facilities teams there typically need electronic access control, tidy master-key hierarchies and quiet after-hours rekeying of interior offices when staff change. Nearby, the Chevron El Segundo Refinery reminds everyone that industrial perimeter security here is a serious subject.

Smoky Hollow, the light-industrial and creative district, has its own pattern: older buildings divided into multiple suites, tenants who want modern access control, and landlords who need a master-key system that makes sense as suites change hands. We can plan that kind of upgrade so each tenant controls their own space while the building stays manageable. Downtown and Main Street shops, near The Point shopping center and the Old Town Music Hall, tend to need dependable storefront hardware, panic bars and quick lockout help.

We serve businesses throughout ZIP code 90245, reaching sites from Rosecrans Ave to the I-105 corridor. Even in the West Side residential grid, older bungalows often have owners who run home offices or small businesses; salt air can corrode exterior hardware, and we are glad to help there as well. Wherever you are, call (323) 997-8867.

Commercial Locksmith in El Segundo — FAQs

Do you offer 24/7 commercial locksmith service in El Segundo?
Yes. We are available 24 hours a day, every day, and fully mobile. Call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to your El Segundo business.
Can you rekey office doors after an employee leaves?
Yes. Rekeying interior and exterior office cylinders is one of our most common commercial jobs. We can do it after hours so your team isn't disrupted, and we can also service file-cabinet and desk cam locks.
Can you set up a master-key system for a multi-suite building?
Yes. This is common in Smoky Hollow-style buildings. We design a hierarchy so each suite has its own key, with higher-level keys for management, and one that can be expanded later.
Do you install electronic access control?
We do. Keypads, card readers and related hardware can replace or complement mechanical keys. We will talk through what suits your building and how many users you have.
Do you have a shop I can visit?
No. We are mobile only, which means we come to your business. To schedule service or ask a question, call (323) 997-8867.
Can you help if my business door won't latch or close properly?
Yes. Often the issue is door alignment, a worn closer or a failing latch rather than the lock itself. We diagnose it on site and repair or replace only what is needed.
How is commercial locksmith pricing determined?
It depends on the number of doors, hardware grade, type of keying, any electronic components, and when the work is needed. We explain the scope before starting so you can approve it.
Do you work on industrial or warehouse sites?
Yes. We service warehouses, light-industrial spaces and similar sites, including exit hardware, high-security cylinders and perimeter door hardware. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your site.
