A business lock problem is rarely just a lock problem. A seized storefront cylinder on a Saturday afternoon on Atlantic Ave, a warehouse roll-up door that will not secure near the Port, or an office suite where a former employee still holds a key all cost you time, stock or peace of mind. Crenshaw Lock Company is a fully mobile locksmith, so we come to the property instead of asking you to come to us. There is no storefront to visit.
Long Beach is a hard city to treat with one playbook. Downtown has high-rise offices and converted lofts with electronic access. Bixby Knolls and Belmont Shore have street-front retail and restaurants with older doors and heavy daily use. The west side is industrial, with gates, overhead doors, and large facilities that need controlled keying. We have served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987 under owner and lead technician David Shar, and that range of commercial hardware is what we work on.
Our commercial work covers emergency lockouts, rekeying after staff changes, repair of failing locks and door hardware, panic and exit devices, master key systems, and electronic access upgrades. We explain what we find, what the options are, and what each choice means for security and cost, so you can decide without pressure.
How it works in Long Beach
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what is happening: locked out, a broken key, a damaged door, or a planned upgrade. Tell us the type of business and door, and whether it is a storefront, office suite, warehouse or gate. That helps us bring the right hardware.
- 2
Confirm authorization
Before we open or change anything, we need to be confident you are authorized to control the property. That might be the owner, a manager, or a tenant with lease authority. It protects you and the building.
- 3
Assess the hardware on site
We inspect the lock, door, frame and any exit devices. Near the coast, salt air can corrode cylinders and strike plates, and in older buildings we may find worn mortise hardware. We tell you what is repairable and what should be replaced.
- 4
Open, repair, rekey or replace
We use the least destructive method that works. If a lock can be opened without damage, we do that. If it needs rekeying, repair or replacement, we do the work on site so the door is secure before we leave.
- 5
Test and hand over keys
We test every lock, latch, closer and exit device we touched, cut and label keys, and record who holds what. For multi-door sites, we can discuss a key control or master key plan.
- 6
Follow-up advice
If we spot weak points such as a worn strike, an unprotected back door or a shared key nobody can track, we point them out and let you decide what to do next.

What affects the price
- Type of service: an emergency lockout, a rekey, a hardware repair and a full access system install each require different labor and parts.
- Hardware grade and condition: commercial-grade cylinders, panic bars and high-security keyways cost differently from standard hardware, and corroded parts may need replacing.
- Number of doors and keys: rekeying one office door differs from rekeying a multi-tenant building or building a master key system.
- Electronic components: keypads, card readers, electric strikes and similar systems involve extra equipment and programming time.
- Timing and access: after-hours calls, difficult access such as a secured yard or upper floor, and the amount of on-site work all affect the final cost.
- Door and frame damage: if a forced entry bent a frame or a lock has been tampered with, repairs may go beyond the lock itself.

Commercial Locksmith across Long Beach
Long Beach businesses are spread across very different districts, and the locksmith needs change with them. In Downtown Long Beach (ZIP 90802 and 90831 area aside, most office work falls in 90802), offices, lofts and mixed-use buildings often rely on electronic or HOA-managed access, while retail near Shoreline Village, The Pike Outlets and the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center sees heavy daily traffic and frequent key turnover. Salt air near the waterfront is hard on exterior cylinders and strike plates.
Further east, Belmont Shore and Belmont Heights have busy shopfronts, restaurants and small offices where older doors and shared keys are common. Bixby Knolls and the Atlantic Ave corridor in ZIP 90807 have a lively mix of independent shops and professional offices that often need rekeying after staff changes. Around CSULB, in the 90840 area, we can also help with campus-adjacent small businesses.
On the west side near the Port, along I-710, warehouses and industrial yards need sturdier hardware, gate and overhead door security, and controlled keying across many users. Whether you are near the Queen Mary, off Ocean Blvd, or beside I-405 or PCH, we come to you. Call (323) 997-8867.
