City of Industry is not like most California cities. Only a few hundred people live here, and almost everything else is warehouses, distribution centers, cold-storage buildings, import/export facilities, light manufacturing and aluminum-storefront flex units. When a lock fails here, it is rarely a front-door problem at a house. It is a loading-dock man-door that will not release, a perimeter gate that will not latch, or a padlock on a container that has seized solid at two in the morning.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar built the business around mobile, around-the-clock work. We are fully mobile, which means there is no storefront to visit. We bring the tools, cylinders and exit-device hardware to your site, whether that is a building off Valley Blvd, a yard near Grand Crossing, or a unit tucked into the industrial blocks near Bassett.

Emergency work in a commercial district has different stakes than a residential lockout. Night-shift crews may be trapped behind a failed crash bar, freight may be sitting in a dock you cannot open, and a building may be unsecured until a lock is fixed. We treat those situations seriously, and we focus on making the site safe and secure first, then on a durable repair or replacement.

How it works in City of Industry

  1. 1

    Call dispatch and describe the problem

    Call (323) 997-8867 at any hour. Tell us what type of door or lock is involved, such as a dock man-door, roll-up door padlock, aluminum storefront, or perimeter gate, and whether anyone is trapped or the building is currently unsecured. That helps us bring the right hardware.

  2. 2

    Safety and access come first

    If people are stuck behind a door or an exit device has failed, that takes priority. We assess the panic bar, mortise lock or rim cylinder and work to restore safe egress. For a lockout, we look for the least destructive way in.

  3. 3

    Diagnose on site

    We check whether the issue is a worn cylinder, a broken exit device, a bent strike, a damaged door or frame, or a seized or cut padlock. We explain what we found and what your options are before work proceeds.

  4. 4

    Repair or replace with the right hardware

    Many commercial locks can be repaired. Where they cannot, we replace them with commercial-grade parts, including high-security deadbolts, exit devices, and hardened padlocks suited to dock doors and storage yards.

  5. 5

    Re-key or restrict keys if needed

    If the emergency involves a terminated employee, lost keys, or a break-in, we can rekey cylinders or reorganize a master-key system so old keys no longer work on dock doors, offices, and perimeter gates.

  6. 6

    Test and secure before we leave

    We operate every lock we touched, confirm doors latch and release properly, and make sure the building is secure. You get a clear explanation of what was done and any follow-up we recommend.

What affects the price

  • The type of hardware involved: a standard cylinder, a mortise lock, a commercial exit device and a hardened padlock all differ in parts and labor.
  • Whether the job is a non-destructive entry, a repair, or a full replacement, and how much of the door or frame is affected.
  • The number of doors, gates, or cylinders involved, especially if a master-key system or several dock doors must be rekeyed.
  • Hardware grade and security level, such as high-security cylinders or restricted keyways versus basic commercial replacements.
  • Time of day and the urgency of the call, since after-hours emergency dispatch differs from scheduled follow-up work.
  • Site conditions, such as damaged frames, rust from outdoor yards, or the need to coordinate with a property manager or tenant.

Why City of Industry chooses us

  • Fully mobile and available 24/7, so a night-shift emergency at a warehouse is not left waiting until a shop opens.
  • In business since 1987, with experience across commercial hardware like panic bars, mortise locks, rim cylinders and master-key systems.
  • Comfortable with industrial sites: dock man-doors, roll-up door padlocks, container and storage-yard locks, and fleet gate hardware.
  • We aim to repair when repair makes sense and replace only when it is warranted, and we explain the reason either way.
  • Key control help after an incident, including rekeying or restructuring master-key systems across large tenant buildings.
  • Honest communication: no storefront gimmicks, and no promises about timing or pricing that we cannot keep.

Emergency Locksmith across City of Industry

City of Industry stretches along SR-60 and I-605, with Valley Blvd and Azusa Ave carrying much of the freight and employee traffic. The mix of buildings is almost entirely commercial. Around Grand Crossing, we see storage yards, containers and fenced lots where cut or seized padlocks are a common emergency. Near Industry Hills, close to Pacific Palms Resort and the Industry Hills Golf Club with its Eisenhower and Zaharias courses, hospitality and facility buildings have their own mix of doors and access control needs.

The Bassett-adjacent industrial district brings large warehouses and distribution centers with long rows of dock doors, office entries and perimeter gates. A typical emergency call might be a broken panic bar on a loading-dock man-door that traps night-shift staff, or a master-key system that needs to be rekeyed quickly after an employee termination. Both are urgent for safety and for security, and both are work we handle on site.

City of Industry has several ZIP codes, including 91744, 91745, 91746, 91748, and 91789, and many reflect business-only or PO-box addressing. If you are near the former Puente Hills Mall site, the City of Industry rail yards, or anywhere in 91746, call (323) 997-8867 and tell dispatch the building type and cross streets so we can head to the right place.

Emergency Locksmith in City of Industry — FAQs

Do you really work around the clock in City of Industry?
Yes. Crenshaw Lock Company is a 24/7 mobile locksmith, so you can call (323) 997-8867 any time, including nights, weekends and holidays, for an emergency at your warehouse or business.
Can you fix a broken panic bar or exit device on a dock door?
Yes. A failed panic bar or exit device can trap staff and create a code problem, so we treat it as urgent. We repair or replace the device on site and test that it releases properly before we leave.
What if a padlock on my storage yard or container is cut or seized?
We can remove it on site and install a high-security replacement. Yards near Grand Crossing and similar areas often face weather and tampering, so we recommend hardware suited to the exposure.
Can you rekey a warehouse after an employee is terminated?
Yes. We can rekey cylinders or rework a master-key system covering dock doors, offices and perimeter gates so old keys stop working. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss the scope.
Do you have a shop I can visit?
No. We are fully mobile only and have no storefront. We come to your location anywhere in City of Industry and the surrounding Greater LA area.
How much does an emergency call cost?
It depends on the hardware, the number of doors, whether we repair or replace, and the time of day. We explain the factors and the scope of work on site before starting.
Do you handle residential lockouts in City of Industry?
Yes, though the city is almost entirely commercial and has very few residents. Our main work here is warehouses, offices and yards, but we can help with a residential lockout if you call (323) 997-8867.
Will you damage my door getting in?
We try non-destructive entry first. If a lock is badly damaged or a door is forced, we tell you what we found and discuss repair options before replacing anything.
