A vehicle problem in Fillmore rarely happens somewhere convenient. It might be a locked truck at the edge of a citrus block, a lost key after a day on Central Avenue, or a car that will not start in a driveway off A Street. Because Crenshaw Lock Company is fully mobile, we work where your vehicle sits. There is no shop to tow to and no storefront to visit.
Our automotive work covers cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleet vehicles. That includes opening locked vehicles, cutting and programming replacement keys, repairing worn or broken ignition cylinders, extracting broken keys, and addressing door and trunk lock faults. Fillmore has a real mix of vehicles: family sedans, work trucks that serve the surrounding agricultural land, and the occasional RV or trailer. Each has its own lock and key system, and we approach them one at a time.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar. We are available around the clock, and we serve Fillmore by mobile dispatch rather than from a local office. Call (323) 997-8867, tell us the make, model, year and where you are, and we will explain what the job involves before work begins.
How it works in Fillmore
- 1
Tell us where you are and what happened
Call (323) 997-8867 and give us your location, such as a street in North Fillmore, a parking spot downtown, or a ranch road in Bardsdale. Tell us the vehicle make, model and year and whether you are locked out, missing a key, or dealing with an ignition fault.
- 2
Confirm the vehicle and your ownership
Before we open or key a vehicle, we ask you to show that it is yours, typically with ID and registration or similar paperwork. This protects owners and is a normal part of responsible locksmith work.
- 3
Choose the least invasive entry or diagnosis
For a lockout, we use professional tools designed to open the door without damaging paint, weatherstripping or wiring. For a no-start or key problem, we first work out whether the cause is the key, the transponder, the fob battery, or a worn ignition cylinder.
- 4
Cut and program keys on site
If you need a replacement or spare, we cut the key and program the transponder or fob at your vehicle when the system allows it. Some vehicles need specific procedures, and we will tell you plainly if yours is one of them.
- 5
Repair or replace worn components
A sticky ignition, a key that turns hard, or a door lock that no longer catches can often be repaired. If a part has failed, we explain the options before replacing it.
- 6
Test everything before we leave
We try every key, fob function and lock we touched, and confirm the vehicle starts and secures properly. You leave with working keys and a clear understanding of what was done.

What affects the price
- Vehicle make, model and year, since newer systems with transponders, smart keys or push-button start take more equipment and programming than older mechanical keys.
- The type of job: a simple lockout differs from key replacement when every key is lost, ignition repair, or broken key extraction.
- Whether you need one key or several, and whether the key is a basic cut key, a transponder key, a remote head key or a proximity fob.
- Your exact location and the time of day, because we dispatch by mobile service across Ventura County and work around the clock.
- The condition of the lock hardware, since worn or damaged ignition cylinders and door locks may need parts rather than a quick adjustment.
- Vehicle type, as motorcycles, RVs and fleet vehicles can involve specialty locks or multiple units in a single visit.
Why Fillmore chooses us
- Fully mobile service. We come to your vehicle in Fillmore instead of asking you to arrange a tow.
- In business since 1987, with owner David Shar leading the work.
- Available 24/7, which matters when a lockout happens late at night on SR-126 or SR-23.
- Coverage for cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs and fleets, useful in a town with farm trucks and work vehicles.
- We explain the job and the cost factors before starting, and we do not guess at timing or promise what we cannot confirm.
- Careful, damage-conscious entry methods and key programming done at the vehicle when possible.
Automotive Locksmith across Fillmore
Fillmore sits along SR-126 (Ventura Street) in the Santa Clara River valley, and its vehicle problems reflect that. Downtown around Central Avenue, near the Fillmore & Western Railway, cars are often parked for hours while people visit shops and events, which is when keys get locked inside or lost. In the residential streets of North Fillmore and Cordova Park, we are often called to driveways for lockouts, spare keys and ignition trouble, usually in ZIP code 93015.
Out toward Bardsdale, across the Santa Clara River, the work looks different. Farm trucks, utility vehicles and work rigs are parked at ranch gates, barns and orchard edges, sometimes well off the main road. Because we are mobile, we can meet you there instead of making you get the vehicle to a shop. Many of these properties fall within ZIP code 93016 or the surrounding rural area, and we will ask for clear directions when you call.
Fillmore is a small town, and a lot of drivers pass through on SR-23 (Grimes Canyon Road) and Old Telegraph Road, or stop to visit places like the Fillmore Fish Hatchery and nearby Rancho Camulos Museum. Visitors can get stranded just as easily as residents. We serve Fillmore by mobile dispatch, around the clock, so whoever you are and wherever you are parked, call (323) 997-8867.
