Hidden Hills is a guard-gated city of large estates, many on lots of an acre or more, and a lot of those properties already rely on some form of access control: driveway gates, keypads, safes, and increasingly smart and biometric locks on the main house. Installing a smart lock here is rarely a simple swap. A main residence, a guest house, a pool house and a barn each have different needs, and the right hardware for one may be wrong for another.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar has watched keyless entry go from a novelty to an everyday request. We install, program and troubleshoot smart, keyless and keypad locks, and we are honest about when a smart lock is a good fit and when a quality mechanical deadbolt is the better answer.

We are a mobile-only service. There is no storefront to visit; we bring the tools, hardware knowledge and programming experience to your property, whether it is an original 1950s or 60s ranch home or a newer custom build.

How it works in Hidden Hills

1
Talk through the property and the goal
We start with a call to (323) 997-8867. Tell us which doors you want covered, whether you prefer a keypad, fingerprint, app or key-fob approach, and what you have now. For an estate, we also ask about the guest house, gates and outbuildings so the plan fits the whole property.
2
Check the door, the frame and the existing hardware
Smart locks only work well on doors that are properly prepared. We look at door thickness, bore holes, strike alignment and frame condition. Older ranch homes sometimes have doors or frames that have shifted over the decades, and we correct fit problems before the new lock goes in.
3
Confirm compatibility with your home systems
We check how the lock will connect to your Wi-Fi, phone or existing smart-home setup, and whether it needs to coexist with your alarm or gate system. Large lots can mean weak signal at far doors, so we plan for that rather than discover it afterward.
4
Install and align the lock
We mount the lock, set the latch and strike, and make sure the bolt throws smoothly without binding. A smart lock that drags against a misaligned strike drains batteries and fails early, so mechanical alignment gets as much attention as the electronics.
5
Program codes, users and backup access
We set up user codes, fingerprints or app access as appropriate, and make sure a mechanical key override or other backup entry works. We can set separate access for family, household staff and guests, and walk you through changing or removing them.
6
Test everything and show you how it works
Before we leave, we cycle the lock repeatedly, test each user method, and review battery type and low-battery warnings. If you want the lock rekeyed or matched to other keys on the property, we can handle that during the same visit.

What affects the price

The type of lock chosen: a basic keypad deadbolt, a fingerprint model and a full app-connected smart lock differ in hardware cost and setup effort.
The number of doors involved, such as the main house, guest house, pool house and barn, and whether they are to be keyed alike.
The condition of existing doors and frames, since misaligned or drilled-out doors may need adjustment before a new lock fits properly.
Connectivity needs, including integration with a smart-home platform, alarm or gate system, or extra effort to get reliable signal across a large lot.
Whether a rekey, mechanical override or removal of an old failed smart lock is part of the job.
The time of day and urgency of the visit, since we are available around the clock and after-hours calls can be priced differently.

Why Hidden Hills chooses us

We are fully mobile and available 24/7, so a failed smart lock on a Hidden Hills estate does not have to wait for business hours.
Crenshaw Lock has been serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, with owner David Shar leading the work.
We handle both the electronics and the mechanical side: smart lock setup, deadbolt alignment, rekeying and mechanical overrides.
We will tell you when a smart lock is not the right choice for a particular door, such as a barn or tack room where a heavy-duty mechanical lock holds up better.
We can coordinate a whole-property approach, covering main house, guest house and gates so access is consistent and manageable.
We explain backup entry and user management clearly so you are never dependent on a single phone or battery.

Smart Lock Installation across Hidden Hills

Hidden Hills sits just off the US-101 (Ventura Freeway) next to Calabasas, but inside the gates it feels like a different world: private equestrian trails, one-acre-plus lots and a quiet street pattern along Long Valley Road, Spring Valley Road and Round Meadow Road. We regularly think about properties in the Long Valley Road area, the Spring Valley Road area and the Round Meadow area, where a single address might include a main residence, a guest house and a barn.

Because entry is through the manned Long Valley Road and Spring Valley Road gates, we coordinate access with you ahead of time so there is no confusion at the gate. That matters most when a smart or biometric lock has failed and you are locked out: we can arrange entry, open the door, install a mechanical override or replacement, and rekey if needed. Properties in ZIP code 91302 often combine original 1950s and 60s ranch homes with newer custom builds, and the locks on each can call for a different approach.

For horse properties, we keep durability in mind. Barns and tack rooms are dusty, humid or exposed, and electronics do not always belong there. We can pair smart locks on the house with heavy-duty padlocks and gate hardware on the stables and paddocks, and rekey everything together when household staff changes.
