A commercial door works harder than almost any other part of a building. It opens and closes all day, gets pushed by carts and deliveries, and is expected to lock reliably at night. In Lawndale, where small shops, offices and service businesses sit close together along Hawthorne Boulevard and the cross streets, a sticking latch, a loose handle or a worn-out lock can leave a business unable to open or unable to close up safely.

Crenshaw Lock Company repairs and replaces commercial door hardware on storefront doors, aluminum-frame doors and mortise-lock doors. That includes push/pull handles, panic and exit devices, door closers, mortise cylinders and locksets, strikes, latches and the small parts that make a door actually line up and secure. David Shar and our technicians have worked on commercial hardware across Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we bring that experience to every job.

We are mobile only. There is no storefront to visit; the work happens at your door, with the tools and parts we carry. We are available around the clock, which matters when a lock fails at closing time or a door will not secure after a break-in attempt. We would rather diagnose honestly and repair what can be saved than replace hardware that still has life left in it.

How it works in Lawndale

  1. 1

    Tell us about the door

    Call (323) 997-8867 and describe what is happening: a door that will not latch, a handle that spins, a closer that slams, or a lock that no longer turns. Tell us whether it is an aluminum storefront door, a wood or hollow-metal door with a mortise lock, or something else.

  2. 2

    On-site inspection

    We come to your location and look at the whole door, not just the part that failed. Misaligned frames, sagging hinges and worn strikes often cause what looks like a bad lock, so we check alignment, closer tension and the condition of the latch and cylinder.

  3. 3

    Repair or replace, explained plainly

    We tell you what can be repaired and what is better replaced. Many mortise locks and storefront devices can be rebuilt or re-cylindered. If the hardware is worn beyond reliable service, we explain the options and match function and finish where we can.

  4. 4

    Installation and adjustment

    We install the new or repaired hardware, adjust the strike and closer, and check that the door swings, latches and locks smoothly. On aluminum-frame doors we pay attention to the narrow stile and the tight tolerances that make these doors fussy.

  5. 5

    Keys and final check

    If the job involves new cylinders, we cut keys and can set up keying that suits your business, such as a single key for staff or a keyed-alike arrangement. Before we leave, we test the door from both sides so you can lock up confidently.

What affects the price

  • The type of door and hardware involved: a simple handle or strike is a different job than a mortise lockset or a panic exit device.
  • Whether the hardware can be repaired or rebuilt versus fully replaced, and whether matching parts are readily available for an older or discontinued model.
  • The condition of the door and frame, since sagging hinges, misalignment or damaged aluminum stiles can add work beyond the hardware itself.
  • The number of doors and keys involved, including any rekeying, keyed-alike or master-key requirements.
  • Finish, grade and security level of the replacement hardware you choose.
  • The time of day and urgency of the call, since after-hours and emergency service differ from scheduled work.

Why Lawndale chooses us

  • Fully mobile service: we work at your door, so you never have to transport a damaged door or leave the business unattended.
  • Available 24/7, which suits businesses that discover a failed lock at closing time or after hours.
  • In business since 1987 under owner and lead tech David Shar, with long experience on storefront, aluminum-frame and mortise hardware.
  • A repair-first approach: we look to rebuild or adjust hardware when that is sound, rather than defaulting to replacement.
  • We look at the whole door system, including closers, hinges, strikes and frames, so the fix lasts.
  • Clear explanation of options before work begins, with no timing promises we cannot keep.

Commercial Door Hardware across Lawndale

Lawndale is a compact South Bay city of about two square miles, and its commercial life is tightly packed. The Hawthorne Boulevard corridor (SR-107) carries most of the storefronts, with shops, offices and service businesses lined up along the strip, while Inglewood Avenue, Marine Avenue, Redondo Beach Boulevard and Artesia Boulevard add more small commercial frontage. Many of these doors are aluminum-frame storefront doors that see constant daily use, and older ones often have worn closers, loose handles and tired cylinders.

A typical scenario here is a small retail tenant on the Hawthorne corridor whose employee has left and who needs the storefront lock re-cylindered with new keys. Another is a business near the Lawndale Civic Center or in the El Camino Village area whose entry door has stopped latching properly. Because the city is small and densely built, a lot of these businesses sit close to residential blocks in Lawndale Acres, so a door that will not secure is more than an inconvenience at night.

We serve both Lawndale ZIP codes, 90260 and 90261, and reach nearby spots such as Lawndale High School and Alondra Park. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour, and we will come to your door.

Commercial Door Hardware in Lawndale — FAQs

What kinds of commercial door hardware do you repair in Lawndale?
We work on storefront and aluminum-frame door hardware, mortise locksets and cylinders, push/pull handles, panic and exit devices, door closers, strikes and latches. Call (323) 997-8867 and describe your door so we can plan the visit.
Can you repair a mortise lock, or does it always need replacing?
Often it can be repaired or rebuilt, or re-cylindered with new keys. We inspect it first and tell you honestly whether repair makes sense or the lock is too worn to trust.
My aluminum storefront door will not latch. What could be wrong?
Common causes are a misaligned strike, a sagging door, a worn latch or a closer set too weak or too strong. We check the whole door so we fix the actual cause, not just the symptom.
An employee left. Can you change the locks on my Hawthorne Boulevard shop?
Yes. We can re-cylinder or rekey the storefront lock and cut new keys so old keys no longer work. Call (323) 997-8867 to arrange it.
Are you available after hours or on weekends?
Yes, we are available 24/7 and fully mobile. We do not make timing promises, but you can call at any hour.
Do I need to come to your shop?
No. We are mobile only and have no storefront to visit. We come to your business in Lawndale and do the work on site.
Can you set up several doors on one key?
Yes, we can rekey or keyed-alike multiple doors so staff carry one key, and we can discuss master-key options if your building needs them.
How is the price determined?
It depends on the door type, whether hardware is repaired or replaced, the condition of the frame, the number of keys and doors, and the urgency. We explain the options before starting work.
