Getting a spare key made in a small town like Fillmore usually means finding a counter, waiting in line, and hoping the blank on the wall matches your lock. Crenshaw Lock Company skips that. We are a fully mobile locksmith, so the key machine comes to you, whether you are on a quiet street near A St or on a ranch road well outside downtown. There is no storefront to visit; the work happens at your property.

Fillmore's buildings make duplication more interesting than it sounds. Many homes near the center of town are older Craftsman and Spanish bungalows that still carry original or vintage hardware, and the keys for those locks can be worn, unusual, or cut to older patterns. Other houses were rebuilt after the 1994 Northridge earthquake and use modern pin-tumbler locks. Rural properties add gate locks, barn padlocks and equipment keys to the mix. A good copy starts with knowing which of those you are holding.

David Shar founded the company in 1987, and decades of cutting keys across Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County informs how we approach a job. We look at the original key, check how it turns in the lock, and cut a copy that works smoothly rather than one that merely looks right. If a key is restricted or a lock is failing, we tell you plainly and explain your options.

How it works in Fillmore

  1. 1

    Call and describe the key

    Phone (323) 997-8867 any hour and tell us what you need copied: a front door key, an office key, a mailbox key, a padlock key or a restricted key. Mention the lock brand if you can see it and how many copies you want. This helps us bring the right blanks and equipment.

  2. 2

    We travel to your Fillmore location

    Because we are fully mobile, we come to your home, storefront, ranch or office. We do not give arrival-time promises over the phone that we cannot guarantee, but we are available around the clock and will keep you informed on the way.

  3. 3

    Inspect the original key and lock

    Before cutting anything we examine the original. A worn key makes a worn copy, so we check the cuts, the shoulder and the way the key operates in the lock. On older bungalow hardware we look for wear that could make a duplicate stick or fail.

  4. 4

    Cut and test the copy

    We cut the new key on-site to match the original, then test it in your actual lock several times. If it binds or turns roughly, we adjust or recut it so you are not left with a spare that only works on a good day.

  5. 5

    Handle restricted keys properly

    Restricted keyways, such as some office, building or high-security systems, cannot simply be copied from any blank. We can discuss authorization and what the system requires, and we will not bypass the controls that protect your property.

  6. 6

    Review the results and next steps

    Once every copy works, we go over what you have. If a lock is worn out, a key is cracked, or rekeying would make more sense than another copy, we say so and let you decide.

What affects the price

  • The type of key: a standard house key differs from a restricted, high-security, or specialty key that needs special blanks.
  • How many copies you need, since multiple keys from one visit are handled together.
  • The condition of the original, because a worn or damaged key may need extra work to produce a reliable copy.
  • Whether the key is for a mailbox, padlock, gate, vehicle-adjacent lock or office system, each of which uses different blanks.
  • The time of day and how far out your property sits, since we are available 24/7 and travel to rural parts of the Fillmore area.
  • Whether authorization is required for a restricted key system, which can affect how the job is done.

Why Fillmore chooses us

  • Fully mobile service: keys are cut at your door, with no trip to a shop and no storefront to find.
  • In business since 1987, with experience across both modern locks and older vintage hardware.
  • Available 24/7, so a lost spare or a last-minute need for extra keys does not have to wait for business hours.
  • Copies are tested in your own lock before we leave, not handed over untried.
  • Honest about restricted keys and worn locks: we explain what can and cannot be duplicated and recommend rekeying only when it actually makes sense.
  • Comfortable with the mix of properties around Fillmore, from downtown storefronts and bungalows to ranch gates and barn padlocks.

Key Duplication across Fillmore

Fillmore has a character all its own, and the keys here reflect it. Along Central Avenue downtown, early-1900s brick storefronts stand beside period-style buildings put up after the 1994 Northridge earthquake. A shop owner there may have a mix of old mortise hardware and newer commercial locks, each needing a different approach to copying. Not far from the Fillmore & Western heritage railway, we can duplicate keys for small businesses, offices and the mailboxes that serve them.

In residential areas such as North Fillmore and Cordova Park, you will find everything from older Craftsman and Spanish bungalows to mid-century homes and the more modern houses built in the 1990s and 2000s. In ZIP code 93015, that variety means one street can contain several lock generations. Older keys may be worn from decades of use, so we copy carefully and check the fit. Homes rebuilt after the earthquake typically use contemporary locks that are straightforward to duplicate on the spot.

Across the Santa Clara River, Bardsdale and the surrounding ranch land bring different needs: gate locks, barn padlocks and equipment keys that get hard daily use. We serve those properties too, including addresses in ZIP code 93016 and along routes like SR-126, SR-23 (Grimes Canyon Rd) and Old Telegraph Rd. Wherever you are in Fillmore, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.

Key Duplication in Fillmore — FAQs

Can you make copies of keys at my Fillmore home?
Yes. We are fully mobile and cut keys on location at your home, business or property. There is no shop to visit. Call (323) 997-8867 to arrange it at any hour.
Do you duplicate keys for older homes near downtown Fillmore?
Yes. Many older Craftsman and Spanish bungalows still use vintage hardware, and keys for those locks can be worn. We inspect the original, cut a careful copy and test it in the lock so it works properly.
Can you copy a key marked Do Not Duplicate?
Markings alone do not always make a key impossible to copy, but restricted keyways usually require authorization and special blanks. Call (323) 997-8867 and describe the key, and we will explain what is possible and what verification is needed.
Can you copy mailbox keys?
Yes, we can duplicate many mailbox keys on site. Tell us the type of mailbox when you call, and we will bring appropriate blanks. If the lock itself is failing, we can talk about repair or rekeying.
Do you serve ranch properties in Bardsdale?
Yes. We handle keys for ranch gates, barn locks, padlocks and equipment across the Bardsdale area and other rural parts of Fillmore. Call (323) 997-8867 so we know the lock type and location.
Is key duplication available at night or on weekends?
Yes, we operate 24/7. Whether you need spares late in the evening or on a weekend, you can reach us at any hour, and we come to you.
What affects the cost of duplicating a key?
The key type, the number of copies, the condition of the original, whether it is restricted, and your location all play a part. We discuss these with you before starting so there are no surprises.
What if my copy does not work smoothly?
We test each key in your lock before we finish. If a copy binds or feels rough, we adjust or recut it. A worn original or damaged lock can be the cause, and we will point that out honestly.
