A key that has been copied a dozen times is hard to keep track of. That is the usual reason Pomona business owners call us about access control. An office manager may not know who still holds a key from two tenants ago. A property owner may be tired of rekeying every time someone leaves. A shop on Holt Avenue may want staff to enter at different hours without anyone handing out metal keys. Keypads, cards and fobs let you decide who can enter, and change that decision without replacing hardware.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead tech David Shar built the business on practical, on-site work. We are mobile only. There is no storefront to drive to. We bring the hardware, tools and know-how to your entrance, look at the door, frame and wiring situation, and install a system that fits what is actually there.
Pomona has an unusual mix of buildings. Brick commercial spaces and loft conversions downtown, aluminum-storefront retail along Holt and Garey, medical and professional offices, campus-area rentals, and event and storage operations all call for different solutions. We do not push one product on every door. We help you choose between a standalone keypad lock, a card or fob reader, or a more connected setup, based on how many people use the entrance and how much control you need.
How it works in Pomona
- 1
Talk through the entrance and who uses it
We start by asking how the door is used. How many people need access, do they need different schedules, and how often do people come and go? A small office with five employees has different needs than a multi-tenant building. Call (323) 997-8867 and we can begin this conversation by phone.
- 2
Look at the door, frame and surroundings
We come to the site and inspect the door material, the frame, the existing lock and the power options nearby. An aluminum storefront door, a solid wood door in an older brick building and a steel back door each need different hardware and different installation methods.
- 3
Recommend a system that fits
We explain the realistic options, such as a standalone keypad, card or fob readers, or a system that manages several doors. We tell you what each one does well and where its limits are. You decide what makes sense for your budget and your building.
- 4
Install and test on-site
We mount the hardware, connect power and wiring where needed, and make sure the door still latches and releases correctly. We test every credential type and check that the door behaves properly when it closes, so there are no surprises on the first busy morning.
- 5
Set up users and codes
We program the codes, cards or fobs you need and show you how to add or remove people. Removing a former employee should take moments, not a lock change. We leave you comfortable with the day-to-day running of the system.

Follow-up support
If a reader acts up, a fob stops working or you need to add a door later, call us. Because we are available 24/7 and come to you, a problem with a business entrance does not have to wait for the next business day.

What affects the price
- The number of doors being controlled, since each entrance needs its own hardware and testing.
- The type of system chosen, from a simple standalone keypad to card or fob readers that manage many users.
- The door and frame material, because aluminum storefronts, wood, steel and glass each require different mounting work.
- Whether power and wiring are already near the door or need to be run to it.
- How many users, credentials and schedules need to be set up and programmed.
- Whether the job involves removing and replacing existing hardware or adding to what is already in place.
Why Pomona chooses us
- Fully mobile service: we work at your entrance, so we see the actual door, frame and conditions rather than guessing from a description.
- In business since 1987, with owner and lead tech David Shar directly involved in the work.
- Available 24/7, which matters when a business needs a failed reader fixed or a door secured outside normal hours.
- We match the system to the building, whether that is a brick downtown storefront, a Holt Avenue retail unit or a multi-unit property.
- Honest recommendations: if a simple keypad does the job, we will say so rather than suggest a more complicated system.
- We cover locksmith needs beyond access control, so the same company can handle rekeying, lockouts and hardware repairs at your property.
Access Control across Pomona
Pomona businesses operate in very different settings. In the Downtown Pomona Arts Colony, around the dA Center for the Arts and Antique Row on 2nd Street, many spaces are older brick buildings and loft conversions. Doors there can be heavy, frames can be old, and owners often want a discreet solution that does not spoil the look of the entrance. Keypad or fob readers can often be fitted with care to suit the building.
Along Holt Avenue and Garey Avenue, aluminum-storefront retail is common, and those narrow door stiles need hardware that fits properly. Near Cal Poly Pomona and Western University of Health Sciences, landlords and property managers handle tenant turnover regularly. Access control can reduce the need for repeated rekeying at shared entrances. Offices and clinics in the 91766 area and near Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center often want controlled staff access and the ability to remove a departing employee's credentials immediately.
We also hear from operations tied to Fairplex and the LA County Fair, where temporary and seasonal staff come and go. With I-10, SR-60, SR-57 and SR-71 close by, we serve business sites across the 91766, 91767, 91768 and 91769 ZIP codes, as well as neighborhoods like Phillips Ranch, Westmont and Ganesha Hills. Call (323) 997-8867 anytime.
