A safe is only useful when it opens for the right person and stays shut for everyone else. In Hidden Hills, where large estates sit behind manned gates, safes hold passports, jewelry, firearms, estate documents, cash and irreplaceable keepsakes. When one stops working, or when the combination is lost, forgotten or no longer secret, the problem tends to be urgent and private.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar built the business on mobile, hands-on work. We are fully mobile and available 24/7. There is no storefront to visit. We come to your home, guest house, office or barn-side tack room, and we work on the safe where it sits.
Our safe work covers opening safes that will not unlock, repairing dials, keypads and handles, servicing worn mechanisms, and changing combinations when household or staff circumstances change. We explain what we find in plain language before we begin, so you know what is wrong and what the options are.
How it works in Hidden Hills
- 1
A call about the safe and the property
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us about the safe: whether it uses a dial, an electronic keypad, a key or a biometric reader, what it is doing, and where it is located. We also ask how access works at your address, since many Hidden Hills homes are reached through a manned gate and we can coordinate arrival with you.
- 2
Arrival and gate coordination
We are mobile and available 24/7. Once you have cleared us with the gate on Long Valley Road or Spring Valley Road, we drive to your property. On larger estates, tell us exactly where the safe is, whether in a study, a closet, a guest house or a utility room, so we can bring the right tools.
- 3
Assessing the safe
We look at the make, lock type and condition. A failed battery in a keypad is a very different job from a worn dial mechanism or a jammed bolt. We confirm you are the owner or an authorized occupant before opening anything, then explain the approach.
- 4
Opening or repairing it
Where possible we open the safe without damaging it, using methods suited to the lock type. If a component has failed, we repair or replace it so the safe works reliably afterward. We tell you first if a repair is not practical.
- 5
Changing the combination
Once the safe is open, we can set a new combination or code. This is a sensible step after household staff changes, a move, a divorce or any time more people knew the code than should. We walk you through the new setup and make sure you can operate it yourself.
- 6
Testing and handoff
We cycle the lock several times, check the door, bolts and hinges, and confirm that everything operates smoothly. Before leaving, we give you practical advice on battery care, how often to test the safe, and where to keep backup information.

What affects the price
- The type of safe and lock: a simple keypad fault differs from a mechanical dial problem or a high-security model.
- Whether the safe can be opened non-destructively or the lock has been damaged and needs more involved work.
- Whether the job is an opening, a repair, a service, a combination change, or a combination of these.
- The safe's size, weight and location on the property, which affects access and how we work.
- Parts required, such as replacement keypads, batteries, dials or handles, and their availability for the brand.
- The time of day or night you call, since we operate 24/7 and after-hours service can differ from daytime work.

- In business since 1987, with owner and lead technician David Shar involved in how the work is done.
- Available 24/7, which matters when a safe fails before a trip, a closing or an emergency.

Safe Locksmith across Hidden Hills
Hidden Hills is a guard-gated residential city in Los Angeles County, with entry through the manned Long Valley Road and Spring Valley Road gates. Homes in the Long Valley Road area, the Spring Valley Road area and the Round Meadow area typically sit on lots of an acre or more, and many are equestrian properties with barns, stables and guest houses. That means a safe may be in a primary suite, a guest house or an outbuilding, and we plan around that when we arrive.
The housing mix shapes the work. Original 1950s and 1960s ranch homes sometimes hold older safes with worn mechanisms, while newer custom homes often have built-in or hidden safes alongside smart locks, driveway gates and access control. We service those safes and can also help with related hardware, such as heavy-duty padlocks for barns and tack rooms, or rekeying a main house, guest house and gates after household staff turnover.
We serve addresses throughout ZIP code 91302, from the streets near Round Meadow Elementary School to properties close to the US-101 (Ventura Freeway) frontage and the border with Calabasas. Because we are mobile, one call to (323) 997-8867 brings the work to you, and we coordinate entry with the gate so there is no confusion on arrival.
