A business that can't lock up or can't open its doors is losing money and exposing inventory at the same time. In Montebello, that might be a tenant suite at The Shops at Montebello with a key snapped in the cylinder, an aluminum storefront on Washington Blvd with a failing panic bar, or a small warehouse near the I-5 and I-710 corridors with a gate lock that no longer latches. Crenshaw Lock Company handles these jobs as a fully mobile service, so the work happens at your door rather than in a shop.
David Shar has run Crenshaw Lock Company since 1987, serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County. Commercial hardware is a different world from residential: storefront deadlatches, mortise cases in aluminum frames, rim and mortise exit devices, high-security cylinders, master key systems and electronic access. We carry what is needed for these jobs and work out what a door actually requires before recommending anything.
We are available around the clock because business problems do not keep business hours. A break-in attempt overnight, a terminated employee who still has keys, or a lock failure right before a shift change all call for someone who can show up and fix the problem properly. We are mobile only, with no storefront to visit, so you simply call and we come to you.
How it works in Montebello
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Phone (323) 997-8867 and tell us what kind of business you have, what door or lock is affected, and whether the building is currently secure. This helps us bring the right hardware for a storefront, suite or industrial door.
- 2
On-site assessment
We look at the door, frame, cylinder and any exit device or closer. Many commercial lock failures are really alignment, wear or a damaged strike, so we diagnose first rather than assuming everything needs replacing.
- 3
Explain the options before work begins
We lay out repair, rekey or replacement choices in plain terms, including what each means for your keys and security. You approve the plan before we touch the hardware.
- 4
Repair, rekey or replace
We do the work on site: extracting broken keys, rekeying cylinders, adjusting or replacing deadlatches and panic hardware, or installing new locks and master key setups where they make sense.
- 5
Test and hand over keys
We cycle every lock repeatedly, check that doors latch and exit devices release correctly, and make sure the building is secured before we leave. Keys are handed over and you know exactly who holds what.
- 6
Plan for the longer term
If your door hardware, key control or access needs show a pattern of problems, we can suggest a restricted keyway, master key system or access control upgrade for a future visit.

What affects the price
- The type of hardware involved: a standard storefront cylinder is a different job from a mortise lock, high-security cylinder or exit device.
- Whether the work is a repair, a rekey or a full replacement, and how many doors or cylinders are included.
- The time of day and urgency, since after-hours and emergency calls differ from scheduled work.
- The condition of the door and frame, because misalignment, damage from a forced entry attempt or worn strikes can add labor.
- Whether you want a master key system, restricted keys or electronic access, which involve more planning and components.
- Site access, such as a gated industrial yard or a multi-tenant building where coordination with property management is needed.

- One visit whenever possible, because we bring the tools and common commercial parts to your site.
Commercial Locksmith across Montebello
Montebello's commercial life stretches along Washington Blvd, Montebello Blvd and Beverly Blvd, with easy freeway access from I-5 and I-710 that makes it a practical spot for small warehouses and service businesses. In the 90640 ZIP, we see aluminum-frame storefronts with narrow-stile deadlatches, office suites with older keying that has never been reset, and tenant spaces where nobody is sure how many copies of the key exist.
The Shops at Montebello brings its own needs. Tenant suites change hands, and each new occupant should have the locks rekeyed so former staff and previous tenants no longer have access. Broken keys and failing cylinders in high-traffic doors are common, and we can handle them as same-day work while coordinating with mall or property management when required.
Beyond the retail core, businesses and event spaces near North Montebello, the Montebello Hills area and venues like Quiet Cannon have gates, back doors, storage rooms and office entries that all need dependable locks. Wherever your business is in Montebello, we come to you, repair or replace what is failing, and leave the property secure.
