City of Industry is not like most cities. Almost everything here is commercial: warehouses, distribution centers, cold-storage and import/export facilities, light manufacturing, and aluminum-storefront flex and office units. Only a few hundred people actually live here, so when someone is locked out, it is almost always a business problem, and often a time-sensitive one. A shipment is waiting at the dock, a shift is about to start, or a manager is standing outside a building they are responsible for.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar has spent decades working on the kind of hardware that fills these buildings: high-security commercial deadbolts, rim-cylinder and mortise exit devices, panic and crash bars, roll-up dock-door padlocks, gate hardware, and master-key systems that span large tenant buildings. We are fully mobile, so there is no storefront to visit. We come to you, day or night.
A business lockout is rarely just a stuck key. It can be a broken cylinder, a failed exit device, a seized or cut padlock, a lost key to a perimeter gate, or a former employee who still holds a key that should have been retired. We work to get you in with as little damage as possible, then help you make sure the same thing does not happen again.
How it works in City of Industry
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Call (323) 997-8867 any hour. Tell us what kind of door or lock is involved, whether it is a storefront, office suite, dock man-door, roll-up door or gate, and whether anyone is trapped inside or the building is simply inaccessible. That helps us bring the right tools.
- 2
Confirm you are authorized
Before we open a commercial property, we need reasonable confirmation that you are an owner, manager, tenant or someone authorized to give access. This protects the building, the tenant and you. In multi-tenant buildings we may ask about property management.
- 3
Assess the lock and choose the least destructive method
We look at the hardware first. Many commercial locks can be opened with non-destructive methods such as picking, decoding or bypass tools. If a lock is broken, seized or a high-security model, we explain the options, including when drilling is the practical route.
- 4
Get you inside and secure the opening
Once the door is open, we check that it closes, latches and locks properly. If the lockout damaged or revealed a failing part, such as a worn cylinder or a stuck panic bar, we tell you before doing anything further.
- 5
Repair, rekey or replace as needed
If the cylinder is damaged, a key is missing, or an employee left with keys, we can repair hardware, rekey cylinders or install new commercial-grade locks on site. Larger master-key work can be scheduled so the business is not left exposed.
- 6
Review access going forward
We talk through spare keys, who holds which keys, and whether a restricted keyway or revised master-key plan makes sense. You leave knowing the state of your doors.

What affects the price
- The type of lock or exit device involved, since a standard storefront deadbolt differs from a high-security cylinder or mortise lock.
- Whether the lock can be opened without damage or must be drilled, and whether a replacement is needed afterward.
- The number of doors, gates or padlocks involved, particularly in large warehouses with dock doors, offices and perimeter gates.
- Whether the job is only entry or also includes rekeying, repair of a panic bar, or replacement hardware.
- Time of day and urgency, since nights, weekends and holidays are handled around the clock.
- Distance and access conditions at the site, such as gated yards, large industrial lots or secured entry points.
Why City of Industry chooses us
- Fully mobile and available 24/7, which suits shift-based warehouse and distribution operations that do not stop at five o'clock.
- Serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, with owner David Shar's experience behind our commercial work.
- Familiarity with the hardware common in City of Industry: panic and crash bars, mortise and rim cylinders, dock-door padlocks and master-key systems.
- We try non-destructive entry first and tell you plainly when drilling or replacement is the better option.
- We can follow up a lockout with rekeying or master-key work, so one visit can solve both the emergency and the underlying problem.
- No storefront and no pretense: we come to your site, explain what we find, and do not push work you do not need.
Business Lockout across City of Industry
City of Industry stretches along SR-60 and I-605, with Valley Blvd and Azusa Ave carrying much of the daily truck and commuter traffic. In the Bassett-adjacent industrial district, buildings tend to be large warehouses and distribution centers with dock doors, side man-doors and fenced yards. A locked-out manager there may be dealing with a roll-up door padlock, a failed exit device on a man-door, or a master key that no longer works after a rekey by a previous tenant.
Around Grand Crossing, businesses often rely on gated lots, storage yards and containers secured with heavy padlocks. When a padlock is seized or has been cut, we can remove it on site and replace it with a higher-security option. Up toward Industry Hills, near Pacific Palms Resort and the Industry Hills Golf Club with its Eisenhower and Zaharias courses, the needs shift toward hospitality, office and facilities doors, where a quiet, quick entry matters. The old Puente Hills Mall area, known to film fans from Back to the Future, is a reminder of how much of this city has changed while its commercial character stays strong.
We respond across the city's ZIP codes, including 91744, 91745, 91746, 91748 and 91789, along with 91714, 91715 and 91716. Many of these are business-oriented ZIPs, which fits how we work: practical commercial service, at any hour, delivered to wherever your door is, near the City of Industry rail yards or off a back lot on Valley Blvd.
