A business in Redondo Beach has to deal with more than a standard door lock. Shops in Riviera Village, offices along Artesia Blvd and Aviation Blvd, boat-related businesses around King Harbor, and light industrial space near Inglewood Ave and Torrance Blvd all have different needs: who holds keys, how many doors there are, how often staff change, and how hard the coastal air is on hardware.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar. We are fully mobile. There is no storefront to visit; we bring the tools and hardware to your location, whether that is a ground-floor storefront near the pier or a storage unit by the harbor, and we are available 24/7.
Commercial work is usually about control and continuity: keeping the right people in, keeping everyone else out, and keeping your business open. We handle lockouts, rekeying after an employee leaves, commercial-grade deadbolts and cylinders, exit devices, master key systems, gate and padlock service, and electronic access upgrades. We explain your options plainly and let you decide what fits your site and budget.
How it works in Redondo Beach
- 1
Call and describe the site
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what kind of business it is, what door or gate is involved, and whether it is an emergency lockout or planned work. Details such as door type, lock brand if you know it, and who has authority to approve work help us arrive with the right parts.
- 2
Verify authority to work on the property
Before opening or changing any lock, we confirm that you are the owner, manager or an authorized tenant. This protects you and your landlord, especially in multi-tenant buildings and shopping centers where common doors and suite doors are controlled by different parties.
- 3
Assess the hardware and the risk
On site we look at the door, frame, lock grade, strike and any panic or exit hardware. In Redondo Beach we also check for salt corrosion, which can seize cylinders and weaken fasteners near the water. We tell you what is worn, what is fine, and what is actually a security concern.
- 4
Repair, rekey or replace
We do the work that solves the problem: non-destructive entry when possible, rekeying to cut off old keys, or replacing failed locks with commercial-grade hardware. For larger sites we can propose a master key structure or access control so you are not juggling a pile of copies.
- 5
Test and hand over keys
We test every lock repeatedly, confirm doors latch properly and exit hardware works for safe egress, and hand over keys. We note which keys open which doors so you can keep your own records, and we explain any follow-up we recommend.

What affects the price
- Type of work: a lockout, a rekey, a hardware replacement and a full access control installation each involve very different labor and parts.
- Number of doors, gates or locks involved, since rekeying one office door is not the same job as rekeying an entire building or marina storage area.
- Grade and type of hardware, such as standard cylinders versus high-security cylinders, panic bars, electrified strikes or keypad and card readers.
- Condition of existing doors and frames, including corrosion from coastal air, which may require extra parts or repair before a lock can work reliably.
- Time and location of the call, including after-hours or overnight service, and the access conditions at the site.
- Key control needs, such as restricted keyways or master key systems that are planned and documented.
Why Redondo Beach chooses us
- Operating since 1987, so we have seen decades of commercial lock types, from older mechanical hardware to modern electronic systems.
- Fully mobile and available 24/7, so a lockout at a closed shop or a broken lock at night can be handled where you are.
- Owner-led: David Shar is involved in the work, which keeps recommendations practical rather than sales-driven.
- Honest assessments: we tell you when a lock can be repaired or rekeyed instead of replaced.
- Attention to salt and moisture exposure, which matters for harbor-area businesses and anything within reach of the ocean air.
- Clear communication about what is being done and why, with no pressure to buy upgrades you do not need.
Commercial Locksmith across Redondo Beach
Redondo Beach splits naturally into South Redondo (90277) and North Redondo (90278), and the commercial picture differs between them. In 90277, small businesses cluster around Riviera Village, the Redondo Beach Pier and International Boardwalk, and King Harbor Marina. These storefronts, restaurants, and marine-related sites deal with constant foot traffic and with salt air that eats at latches, padlocks and cylinders. We often see exterior hardware that has seized or turned stiff long before it technically fails.
Harbor sites add their own challenges. A boat-related business or tenant at King Harbor who loses a key may need a marina gate lock, storage padlock or unit lock serviced, and those fixtures live in a harsh environment. We can service or replace weather-resistant hardware and rekey so a lost key no longer works. Businesses near Seaside Lagoon and Veterans Park, as well as offices serving the area, benefit from the same careful look at corrosion and key control.
In 90278, which covers El Nido, Golden Hills and The Avenues, commercial activity runs along Artesia Blvd, Aviation Blvd, Inglewood Ave and Torrance Blvd: offices, medical suites, retail strips and service businesses next to dense townhome neighborhoods. Property managers and HOA-linked sites may also need common gate or garage access work. Whether you are near Pacific Coast Hwy or inland, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.
