Ford trucks and SUVs are everywhere in Manhattan Beach, from F-150s hauling boards toward the Strand to Explorers shuttling families around Manhattan Village. When the only key goes missing or stops working, you need a locksmith who comes to you, because a vehicle with a lost key often can't be driven safely to a shop. We are fully mobile, so the work happens right where your Ford is parked.
Many Fords use PATS transponder keys, while newer models may use Intelligent Access push-button systems. The exact key your vehicle needs depends on its year and trim, and we confirm it by VIN rather than guessing. Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we handle lost-key, spare-key, and all-keys-lost situations for Ford owners.
How it works in Manhattan Beach
- 1
Call and share your Ford details
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us your location, whether you drive an F-150, Explorer, or another Ford, and what happened to your keys. We'll ask for the VIN so we can identify the right key for your vehicle.

We come to your vehicle
Our mobile technician drives to your Ford wherever it is parked in Manhattan Beach, whether at home, at work, or by the beach. No towing is needed, and we bring the equipment to the vehicle.
- 3
Verify ownership and confirm the key
We check that you are the owner or authorized user, then use the VIN to confirm which key type fits your truck or SUV, whether a PATS-style transponder key or an Intelligent Access push-button key.

Cut and program the new key
We create the new key, program it to your Ford, and remove lost keys from the system when needed so they no longer start the vehicle. Then we test it for starting and locking before we leave.
What affects the price
- Key type: a basic bladed transponder key differs from an Intelligent Access push-button key.
- Situation: adding a spare when you still have a working key is usually simpler than an all-keys-lost job.
- Model and year of your F-150 or Explorer, which determine the key and programming needs.
- Number of keys you want made, including a spare so you are not stranded again.
- Time of day and location, since we serve 24/7 and the call may be after hours.
