Business security in Lake View Terrace looks different from what you find downtown. Between the commercial strips along Foothill Boulevard and Osborne Street, the equestrian businesses near Hansen Dam, and the light industrial and storage sites close to the I-210 and I-5 corridors, a commercial locksmith here deals with everything from glass storefront doors to long-driveway gates and weathered barn padlocks.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and our owner and lead tech, David Shar, built the business around showing up where the problem is. We are fully mobile and available 24/7. We do not have a showroom to visit; the work happens at your door, gate or tack room, with the tools and hardware on the truck.
Whether you manage a small office, run a boarding or training operation, own a retail space, or look after a rural property with detached outbuildings, we start by understanding what you are protecting and who needs access. Then we recommend hardware that suits the setting, whether that is a hardened shrouded padlock, a keypad gate lock, or a clean master key system. We explain the options plainly and do not push upgrades you do not need.
How it works in Lake View Terrace
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Call (323) 997-8867 at any hour. Tell us what kind of property it is, what lock or gate is involved, and whether you are locked out, have lost keys, or are planning an upgrade. That helps us bring the right hardware and tools.
- 2
We come to your location
Because we are fully mobile, a technician drives to your business, ranch, or site in Lake View Terrace. We do not operate from a storefront, so there is nothing to visit and no need to move your gate, door, or equipment.
- 3
Assess the lock, door, and exposure
On site we look at the hardware, the door or gate, and the conditions it lives in. Dust, wind, moisture and sun wear on barn and tack-room locks, while storefronts and offices face different risks. We confirm you are the person authorized to make changes.
- 4
Explain options before work begins
We walk through repair, rekey, or replacement and describe the tradeoffs in security, durability, and key control. You decide what fits before we start, with no surprises.
- 5
Do the work and test everything
We open, rekey, repair, or install the hardware, then test every lock, latch, keypad, and key. For gates and outbuildings we check that operation is smooth with the real-world alignment and weather exposure in mind.
- 6
Hand over keys and key-control guidance
You get working keys and clear guidance on who holds what. For businesses with staff or tenants, we can discuss restricted keyways or a master key layout so access stays organized.

What affects the price
- The type of service: an emergency lockout, a rekey, a lock repair, and a full hardware replacement each involve different labor and parts.
- Hardware grade and style: standard locks cost differently from hardened, shrouded padlocks, weather-resistant gate hardware, or commercial-grade deadbolts and exit devices.
- The number of locks involved: rekeying one office door is different from converting a whole barn complex, several outbuildings, and a gate to a single key system.
- Time and conditions of the call: after-hours and urgent needs, including evacuation-related lockouts, may be priced differently from scheduled daytime work.
- Door or gate condition: warped frames, damaged latches, or sun- and dust-worn gate hardware can add repair work beyond the lock itself.
- Key system complexity: restricted keyways, master key systems, and extra key copies add to the scope of the job.
Why Lake View Terrace chooses us
- Fully mobile, 24/7: we come to your business or property any hour, which suits ranch and rural sites far from a shop.
- Serving the region since 1987, with owner David Shar leading the work rather than handing it to an anonymous call center.
- Experience with rural and equestrian hardware: gate locks, keypad entries, and weather-exposed padlocks for barns, tack rooms and trailers.
- Hardware recommendations based on your setting, such as hardened shrouded padlocks where tampering is a concern, instead of a one-size-fits-all product.
- Straightforward explanations of options and tradeoffs before work starts, so you stay in control of the decision.
- Commercial-minded key control: we help businesses organize who can open what, from a single office to a multi-building property.
Commercial Locksmith across Lake View Terrace
Lake View Terrace sits at the foothills' edge, with Hansen Dam Recreation Area, the Hansen Dam Horse Park, and the Hansen Dam Aquatic Center shaping much of the neighborhood. In the Equestrian district around the Horse Park, large-lot properties often have long driveways, keypad or lock-equipped access gates, barns, corrals, and detached tack rooms. Those locks live outdoors in wind, dust and sun, and they wear out. A common job here is replacing a tired driveway gate lock and a handful of weathered barn and tack-room padlocks with weather-resistant hardware.
The Hansen Dam district blends residential streets with businesses and attractions, including Discovery Cube Los Angeles and the Lake View Terrace Branch Library nearby, along with commercial frontage on Foothill Boulevard, Osborne Street and Wheatland Avenue. Offices, shops and service businesses in ZIP code 91342 rely on solid door hardware, clean key control, and quick help when a lockout happens. Crenshaw Lock Company serves them with mobile service, so we meet you at the door.
Along the Kagel Canyon border and the foothill roads off Foothill Boulevard, wildfire and Santa Ana wind season can bring sudden evacuations and unexpected lockouts. If you return to a ranch or business and need to get in and secure it, we can help with entry and a full rekey. Rural owners also ask about hardened padlocks for detached outbuildings, trailer hitches, and a back equestrian gate, and we can recommend hardware built to resist tampering. With I-210 and I-5 close by, we reach the area from across the region at any hour.
