Lomita is a compact city of about 1.9 square miles, but its commercial life is varied. Shops and service businesses line Narbonne Avenue and Lomita Boulevard, small apartment complexes sit on side streets, and Pacific Coast Highway carries steady traffic past the businesses along it. Each of these places has different locks, different hours and different risks, and a commercial locksmith has to understand all of them.

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; we bring the tools, hardware and know-how to your door, whether that is a back entrance behind a Lomita Boulevard shop or a laundry room in a 1960s apartment building.

Commercial work is rarely only about a lock. It is about keeping a business open, controlling who has keys, and making sure a change of tenant, manager or employee does not leave old keys floating around. We aim to solve the immediate problem and leave you with a setup that is easier to manage next time.

How it works in Lomita

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Phone (323) 997-8867 at any hour. Tell us the type of business, what the lock is doing or what you need changed, and whether anyone is locked out or the property is unsecured. That helps us bring the right hardware.

  2. 2

    We come to your location

    Because we are fully mobile, a technician travels to your Lomita site with tools and common commercial hardware. We do not make claims about arrival times, but we are available around the clock.

  3. 3

    Assess the doors and hardware

    On site we look at the door, frame, lock grade and how the building is used. A glass storefront door, a metal rear door and an apartment laundry room each call for different solutions.

  4. 4

    Agree on the work before we start

    We explain what we recommend, whether that is a repair, a rekey or a replacement, and discuss the cost in terms of the work involved. You decide what goes ahead.

  5. 5

    Complete the work and test everything

    We do the lockout, rekey, repair or installation, then test each key and lock operation. Where useful, we cut extra keys or set up keyed-alike or master key arrangements.

  6. 6

    Leave you with a clear key plan

    We tell you which keys now work and which no longer do, and suggest ways to keep track of keys between employees or tenants going forward.

What affects the price

  • Type of service: a lockout, a rekey, a repair and a full hardware replacement involve very different amounts of labor and parts.
  • Number of locks or doors: rekeying two apartment units differs from rekeying every door in an office or warehouse.
  • Hardware grade and type: standard commercial deadbolts, panic bars, high-security cylinders and electronic access devices vary widely in cost.
  • Master key or keyed-alike design: setting up a hierarchy so some keys open many doors and others open one takes planning and extra components.
  • Condition of existing doors and frames: worn, warped or damaged doors may need adjustment or repair before a lock will work properly.
  • Time and circumstances of the call: after-hours or urgent service on a site that must be secured immediately can affect the job.

Why Lomita chooses us

  • Serving the Los Angeles area since 1987, with an owner-led team that has seen older and newer commercial hardware of many kinds.
  • Fully mobile and available 24/7, so a lockout or broken lock outside business hours does not have to wait until morning.
  • Comfortable with both small-scale jobs, like a single apartment rekey or a padlock swap, and multi-door business work.
  • We explain options plainly and let you choose, rather than pushing replacement when a repair or rekey will do.
  • Key control advice built around how your business actually runs, such as tenant turnover, staff changes or shared access.
  • No storefront overhead or counter to visit; everything is handled at your property.

Commercial Locksmith across Lomita

Lomita's business activity clusters along Narbonne Avenue, Lomita Boulevard near City Center, and Pacific Coast Highway, with Western Avenue also carrying local traffic. In ZIP code 90717 you will find small retail and service businesses, professional offices and many modest apartment complexes, often built between the 1960s and 1980s. Those older buildings commonly have aging hardware, shared laundry or storage rooms and a steady need to rekey between tenants.

A property manager on Lomita Boulevard, for example, might need two units rekeyed and a laundry-room padlock replaced after a tenant moves out. That is a quick, practical job for a mobile locksmith, and it keeps previous tenants' keys from working. Near the Narbonne Avenue corridor, shop owners often want a rear door secured, a keyed-alike setup for staff, or a lock repaired after attempted forced entry.

Lomita is also a gateway to the Palos Verdes Peninsula, and the Harbor Hills area sits close to that hillside transition. Business owners and residents who travel back and forth sometimes need gate or mailbox keys duplicated along with their regular work. Whether your site is near Lomita Park, close to the Lomita Railroad Museum or tucked behind Pacific Coast Highway, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.

Commercial Locksmith in Lomita — FAQs

Do you offer commercial locksmith service in Lomita at night and on weekends?
Yes. Crenshaw Lock Company is available 24/7 and fully mobile. Call (323) 997-8867 at any hour to reach us about a lockout, broken lock or unsecured door.
Can you rekey several apartment units between tenants?
Yes. Many Lomita apartment buildings need rekeying whenever a tenant leaves. We can rekey individual units, replace laundry-room or storage padlocks, and set up keys so management can keep better control.
What kinds of businesses do you serve?
We serve offices, retail shops, restaurants, apartment complexes, warehouses and industrial sites. If it is a business door, gate or cabinet, we can likely help.
What is the difference between rekeying and replacing a commercial lock?
Rekeying changes the internal pins so old keys no longer work while keeping the same lock body. Replacement installs new hardware. Rekeying is often more economical if the lock is in good condition, and we will tell you which makes sense.
Can you set up a master key system?
Yes. A master key system lets certain keys open multiple doors while others open only one. We help design it around who needs access to what. Call (323) 997-8867 to talk through your layout.
How is the price determined?
Cost depends on the type of work, the number of locks, the hardware chosen, the condition of the doors and the circumstances of the call. We discuss what is involved before starting, so you know where things stand.
Do you have a shop I can visit in Lomita?
No. We are a mobile-only business. Our technicians travel to your location, so there is no storefront to visit.
Can you help after a break-in attempt?
Yes. We can assess damaged locks, doors and frames, make the entrance secure again and recommend upgrades. If your business is unsecured, call (323) 997-8867 right away.
