City of Industry is not a typical residential town. It is warehouses, distribution centers, cold-storage buildings, import/export facilities, light manufacturing and aluminum-storefront flex units, with only a few hundred residents. Lock replacement here usually means commercial-grade hardware: high-security deadbolts, rim-cylinder and mortise exit devices, panic bars, dock-door padlocks and gate hardware. It is a different job than changing a front-door knob on a suburban street.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar. We are fully mobile. There is no storefront to visit, so we bring the tools and hardware to your building, whether it sits off Valley Blvd, near Azusa Ave, or tucked behind the rail yards.
People usually call us for one of a few reasons. A lock has worn out after years of heavy daily use. A key was lost or an employee left and the building needs new control. A panic bar has failed on a loading-dock man-door. Or a padlock on a yard or container has been cut or has seized. Each case calls for a different replacement approach, and we explain the options plainly so you can choose what fits your operation.
How it works in City of Industry
- 1
Call and describe the problem
Reach us at (323) 997-8867 at any hour. Tell us what kind of door or gate it is, what is failing, and whether people are locked in or the building is exposed. That helps us bring the right hardware on the first visit.
- 2
Assess the existing hardware on site
We look at the lock, the door, the frame and how the opening is used. On a dock man-door we check the exit device and strike. On an aluminum storefront we look at the narrow stile and cylinder type. Sometimes a repair makes more sense than replacement, and we say so.
- 3
Recommend the right replacement
We go over grade, finish, keying and security level with you. For a multi-tenant or large warehouse building, that may include fitting the new lock into a master-key system so one hierarchy covers offices, dock doors and perimeter gates.
- 4
Remove the old lock and install the new one
We take out the worn or damaged hardware, including seized or cut padlocks when needed, and fit the new lock cleanly. We align the latch, strike and any exit device so the door closes and locks smoothly without binding.
- 5
Test, cut keys and hand over
We operate every lock repeatedly, confirm exit devices release freely, and make sure keys work as intended. You get the new keys and a clear explanation of what was installed, so whoever manages the building knows what is on each door.

What affects the price
- The type of lock: a standard deadbolt, a high-security cylinder, a mortise lock or a panic/exit device each differ widely in hardware cost and installation effort.
- The number of openings: replacing one office door is a different scope than several dock doors, offices and perimeter gates in one visit.
- Keying requirements, including whether new locks must be keyed alike or tied into a master-key system with separate access levels.
- Condition of the door and frame: damaged, warped or poorly aligned openings, especially aluminum storefront frames, may need extra work for the new lock to function properly.
- Whether the call is an emergency or after-hours job, such as a failed exit device trapping night-shift staff, versus a scheduled replacement.
- The grade and finish of hardware, including weather-resistant or hardened options for exposed yards, containers and gates.
Why City of Industry chooses us
- Fully mobile and available 24/7, so a night-shift emergency at a loading dock is not left waiting until morning.
- In business since 1987, with experience across the commercial hardware common in industrial areas: panic bars, mortise locks, rim cylinders and gate locks.
- Comfortable with master-key systems for large buildings, so a replacement or rekey after staff changes fits your whole access plan instead of creating a mess of loose keys.
- Honest recommendations. If a repair or rekey will do the job, we will say so rather than push a full replacement.
- Hands-on involvement from owner David Shar's operation, with clear explanations of what is being installed and why.
- On-site removal of seized or cut padlocks and replacement with sturdier hardware suited to yards and containers.
Lock Replacement across City of Industry
City of Industry's character shapes almost every lock job we do here. The Bassett-adjacent industrial district and the warehouse blocks along Valley Blvd and Azusa Ave are full of distribution centers and import/export facilities where doors see constant traffic. Hardware wears out, tenants turn over, and employees come and go, so replacement and rekeying come up often. In ZIP 91746 and neighboring codes such as 91744 and 91789, business-only addresses are common, and our work is mostly on commercial doors rather than homes.
Around Grand Crossing, we are often asked about storage yards and containers where padlocks get cut, corroded or seized. Removing them on site and fitting a more resistant replacement is a typical call. Near the rail yards and off SR-60 and I-605, fleet and gate hardware takes a beating from weather and heavy use, and we choose replacements with that in mind.
Industry Hills, with the Pacific Palms Resort and the Industry Hills Golf Club's Eisenhower and Zaharias courses, has its own mix of hospitality and facility doors, from offices to service entrances. Wherever you are, from the former Puente Hills Mall area to a warehouse in 91715 or 91716, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.
