Pacoima runs on work. Along San Fernando Road and through the industrial corridor, there are auto-repair bays, recycling yards, warehouses and small manufacturers, and every one of them depends on locks that hold up to daily use and to people who test them. Up on the Van Nuys Boulevard retail corridor, storefronts have their own needs: glass doors, aluminum frames, and back doors that open onto alleys.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner David Shar has seen how business security problems usually start. An employee leaves without returning a key. A break-in damages a man-door. A yard gate that has been padlocked with the same cheap lock for ten years finally gets cut. We come to you with the tools and hardware to handle it on the spot, because we are fully mobile and have no storefront to visit.
Our commercial work in Pacoima covers rekeying, high-security cylinders, hardened padlocks, roll-up door and gate hardware, panic and exit devices, master key systems, and key work for the vans and work trucks that tradespeople run out of the area. Call (323) 997-8867 day or night and we will help you sort out what is urgent and what can be planned.
How it works in Pacoima
- 1
You call, we ask the right questions
Phone (323) 997-8867 and tell us what kind of site you have: a shop with a roll-up door, a warehouse man-door, a retail storefront, or a fenced yard. We ask about the lock, what happened, and whether the site is secure right now, so the right hardware comes with us.
- 2
We come to your site
We are 24/7 and fully mobile, so the work happens where you are. On arrival we look at the doors, gates, frames and existing locks before touching anything, and we confirm you are authorized to have the work done.
- 3
Assess the weak points
Many break-ins and key-control problems come from a few specific weaknesses: a loose strike plate, an exposed hasp, a cylinder that sticks out past the door, or a lock that has been keyed the same for years. We point out what we see and explain the options plainly.

Rekey, repair or upgrade
Depending on the situation, we rekey cylinders so old keys stop working, replace damaged hardware, fit hardened boron padlocks on gates and roll-up doors, or install higher-security locks. We work with you on what is practical for the site and the budget.
- 5
Test and hand over keys
We operate every lock repeatedly, check that doors close and latch correctly, and cut and test your keys. We also talk about key control, such as who holds which keys, so the fix lasts past this one visit.

What affects the price
- The type of hardware: standard cylinders, high-security cylinders, hardened padlocks and panic devices all cost differently.
- How many doors, gates or cylinders are involved, since rekeying one door is a different job than rekeying a whole building.
- Condition of the doors and frames, including whether damage from a break-in needs repair before new locks can be fitted.
- Roll-up door and gate type, because different slide bolts, cylinder locks and hasps need different parts.
- Whether the work is an emergency call-out after hours or a scheduled job, and how far we travel to reach the site.
- Key requirements, such as restricted keyways, master key systems or transponder programming for work vehicles.
Why Pacoima chooses us
- Fully mobile since 1987: we bring the work to your shop, yard or office rather than asking you to leave your business unsecured.
- Available 24/7, which matters when a theft or a broken lock is discovered at the end of a shift or before opening.
- Familiarity with industrial hardware, including roll-up doors, padlocked yard gates and warehouse man-doors that need hardened components.
- We also handle vehicle keys, transponder programming and ignition repair, useful for contractors and vendors who run vans out of Pacoima.
- We explain what is actually needed and do not push upgrades that do not fit your site.
- Owner David Shar leads the business, so you are dealing with a long-running local company, not a call center.
Commercial Locksmith across Pacoima
Pacoima's business landscape is unusually varied for a single neighborhood. The industrial corridor off San Fernando Road, in ZIP 91331 and nearby 91333 and 91334, holds auto-repair shops, recycling yards and warehouses where roll-up gates, chain-and-padlock setups and steel man-doors are the norm. These sites often face turnover in staff and the occasional theft, and that is when rekeying and boron padlocks make the biggest difference.
On the Van Nuys Boulevard 'Mural Mile', small retail businesses work with storefront doors, aluminum frames and rear service entrances, where a failing cylinder or a worn latch is often the real security problem. Further out, near Hansen Hills and the area around San Fernando Gardens, small offices, contractors and home-based businesses rely on practical, durable locks and dependable key control.
We get around Pacoima using San Fernando Road, Van Nuys Boulevard, Glenoaks Boulevard, Laurel Canyon Boulevard and the I-5, and we serve sites from the industrial blocks to the businesses near Whiteman Airport. Whether you operate near Ritchie Valens Recreation Center & Park or off a side street in the corridor, call (323) 997-8867.
