Getting locked out of a car rarely happens at a convenient moment. In Pico Rivera it might be in the lot at Pico Rivera Towne Center with a trunk full of groceries, beside the field at Smith Park or Streamland Park while the kids are still playing, or on the shoulder near an I-5 or I-605 on-ramp when you stepped out for a second. Keys on the seat, keys in the trunk, or a fob that went in with the bag and got locked behind you all lead to the same frustrating spot.
Crenshaw Lock Company is fully mobile. We have no storefront for you to visit; the locksmith comes to your vehicle. David Shar has run the business since 1987, and that long experience with how different vehicles are built is what keeps unlocking calm and careful rather than rushed. The goal is always to open the car without scratching paint, bending door frames, or tearing weatherstripping.
Because we operate around the clock, a late shift ending near the Pico Rivera Sports Arena or an early morning errand along Whittier Blvd is no different from a midday call. Phone us at (323) 997-8867, tell us the make, model, and year if you know them, and we will explain what to expect before any work begins.
How it works in Pico Rivera
- 1
Call and share your location
Ring (323) 997-8867 and tell us where the car is: a street, a shopping center lot, a park, or a freeway-adjacent spot. Give us the make, model, and approximate year, and whether the keys are inside the cabin or the trunk.
- 2
Confirm safety and ownership
If a child or pet is inside, or the car is in the heat, say so immediately so we can treat it as urgent and you can consider calling emergency services. Before opening any vehicle we ask you to show that the car is yours, such as ID and registration.
- 3
Choose the right unlocking method
Different vehicles call for different approaches. We pick a non-destructive technique suited to your door, window, and lock design, protecting the paint, glass, seals, and wiring inside the door panel.
- 4
Open the vehicle and test
Once the car is open, we check that the locks, handles, and windows all still work normally. If the trunk was the issue, we help you get your keys out and confirm everything functions.
- 5
Talk through next steps
If your key is worn, cracked, or you keep locking yourself out, we can discuss a spare or replacement key so you are not stranded again. That is optional and never pressured.

What affects the price
- The type of vehicle: some makes and models have more complex door and lock systems than others, which affects the work involved.
- Where the keys are: inside the passenger cabin versus locked in the trunk can call for different techniques.
- The time of day you call, since we serve around the clock including nights, weekends, and holidays.
- Your location and how accessible the vehicle is, such as an open street versus a crowded lot or a tight spot.
- Whether you also need a replacement or spare key, which is a separate service from the unlock itself.
- Any special circumstances, such as a damaged lock or a previous failed attempt to get in.

Car Lockout across Pico Rivera
Pico Rivera was formed from the Pico and Rivera districts, and the city's layout shapes where lockouts tend to happen. Drivers in North Pico Rivera, the Pico area, and Rivera cross town on Whittier Blvd, Washington Blvd, and Rosemead Blvd every day, parking at strip centers, schools, and neighborhood streets lined with 1950s single-story homes. Lockouts at a curb in front of your own house or in a shared driveway are as common as ones at a store.
The city is also built around its freeways and gathering places. People get locked out in the Pico Rivera Towne Center lots, at the Pico Rivera Sports Arena during events, at Smith Park and Streamland Park on game days, and near the Whittier Narrows Recreation Area, where visitors often leave keys in the car while heading to the trail or picnic area. We reach drivers near I-5 and I-605 too, and we cover all three ZIP codes: 90660, 90661, and 90662.
Whether you are in a driveway off a quiet residential block in 90660, a shopping lot in 90662, or a park lot in 90661, call (323) 997-8867. We are mobile and available 24/7, so help comes to wherever your car happens to be parked.
