A home in Moorpark can mean very different things to a locksmith. A 1990s tract house in Peach Hill, a resale in Mountain Meadows, a newer smart-lock-ready build, and an early-1900s bungalow near High Street all need different hardware and a different approach. Residential locksmith work here is rarely one-size-fits-all, and we treat it that way.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar built the business on showing up prepared and explaining the options plainly. We are 24/7 and fully mobile. There is no storefront to visit; we bring the tools, key-cutting capability and common hardware to your property.
Whether you just bought a house and want to know who still holds a key, you have a sticking deadbolt, or you want to move to keypad or smart locks, we start by looking at what you have and what you actually need. Then we recommend the simplest solution that fits, not the most expensive one.
How it works in Moorpark
- 1
Call and describe the situation
Phone (323) 997-8867 any hour. Tell us what is happening: a lockout, a worn deadbolt, a new-home rekey, or an upgrade. We ask about the door, the lock brand if you know it, and whether the home is newer tract construction or an older Old Town property so we can bring suitable parts.
- 2
We come to you
Because we are fully mobile, a technician drives to your Moorpark address with tools and hardware. We do not quote arrival times, but we are available around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays.
- 3
Inspect the locks and doors
On site we check the cylinders, deadbolts, strike plates, door alignment and any smart or keypad hardware. Many lock problems are really door-fit or strike-plate problems, and we tell you honestly which it is before work starts.
- 4
Review options and confirm the plan
We explain whether rekeying, repair, replacement or an upgrade makes the most sense. Rekeying often suits a new purchase because it changes which keys work while keeping existing hardware. You approve the plan before we begin.
- 5
Do the work and test it
We rekey, install, repair or cut keys, then test every lock with the new keys or codes several times. For multi-door homes we can set things up so one key works throughout, and we confirm doors latch and deadbolts throw smoothly.
- 6
Hand over keys and explain care
You get working keys, any codes or app setup for smart locks, and simple guidance on maintenance. If we notice weak strike plates or short screws, we point them out so you can decide whether to reinforce them.

What affects the price
- Whether the job is a rekey, a repair, a full replacement or a new installation, since each involves different labor and parts.
- The number of locks and doors involved, such as a single front deadbolt versus every exterior door in a house.
- The hardware chosen, from standard grade deadbolts to higher-security cylinders, keypad locks or smart locks that connect to an app.
- Age and condition of the existing hardware, especially original mortise locks in older Old Town homes where parts may be specialty or period-correct.
- Whether door or frame work is needed, such as realigning a door, reinforcing a strike plate or fixing a damaged bore.
- Time of day and urgency, since after-hours and emergency calls differ from scheduled daytime appointments.
Why Moorpark chooses us
- In business since 1987, so our technicians have seen decades of lock designs, from vintage mortise sets to current smart locks.
- Fully mobile and 24/7: we come to your home rather than asking you to drive anywhere, because there is no storefront.
- Led by owner and lead tech David Shar, which means the person setting standards is also the person who cares about the work.
- Comfortable with both modern tract hardware and older historic hardware, which matters in a city that has Peach Hill subdivisions and High Street bungalows.
- We recommend rekeying when it will do the job instead of pushing replacement, and tell you plainly when something does need replacing.
- We explain pricing factors before work begins so you can decide with full information.
Residential Locksmith across Moorpark
Moorpark's housing splits into a few clear types. Peach Hill, Mountain Meadows and Campus Park are largely 1980s to 2000s suburban tract neighborhoods with standard cylindrical locks and deadbolts. These homes are ideal for rekeying after a purchase, installing smart locks, or setting up a master-key arrangement. Newer master-planned subdivisions are increasingly specified with smart locks, and we can help with setup and compatibility. Homes in the 93021 area, including many near Tierra Rejada Rd and Spring Rd, often fall into this category.
Old Town Moorpark along High Street is different. Early-20th-century bungalows and historic brick and wood buildings near the High Street Arts Center may still have original mortise locks and skeleton-key hardware. Replacing these is not always a matter of grabbing something off a shelf, so we look at repair or period-appropriate replacement first, which can preserve the character of the property while improving security.
Around the edges of town, especially along Los Angeles Ave (SR-118) near Underwood Family Farms, ranch and farm properties have needs of their own: gate locks, barn padlocks and key copies for equipment. In ZIP 93020 and the surrounding areas, we also help residents who live a short drive from Moorpark College, the Metrolink Station or Arroyo Vista Community Park. Wherever you are, off SR-23 or SR-118, we come to you at any hour.
