A smart lock sounds like a simple swap, but in Redondo Beach the door it goes on matters as much as the lock. A 1940s Spanish home in Hollywood Riviera, a beach bungalow near the pier and a 1990s attached townhome in North Redondo each present different bore sizes, door thicknesses, strike plates and weather exposure. Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and we bring that hands-on experience to every keypad, keyless and app-connected lock we install.
We are fully mobile and available 24/7, so there is no storefront to visit. We come to your door with hardware and tools, check how the existing door and frame are prepared, install the lock, and then set it up with you: user codes, app pairing where the lock supports it, and a clear walk-through so everyone in the household knows how it behaves, including what happens when batteries run low.
We also help when a smart lock you already own is giving trouble. Keypads that stop responding, locks that will not stay paired, deadbolts that bind because the door has shifted, or hardware that was fitted poorly by someone else are all common calls. Near the coast, salt air shortens the life of many finishes and moving parts, so we pay attention to which products are likely to hold up and to the condition of the door they are mounted on.
How it works in Redondo Beach
- 1
Talk through your door and goals
When you call (323) 997-8867, we ask what you want: keypad entry, app control, auto-lock, shared codes for family or guests. We also ask about the door type and whether it is a front door, garage service door or patio door, so the right hardware is on the truck.
- 2
Inspect the door, frame and existing lock
On arrival we check the bore holes, door thickness, latch and strike alignment, and the condition of the frame. Doors that have swollen, sagged or corroded are better corrected first, because a smart lock cannot fix a door that does not close squarely.
- 3
Confirm the lock choice with you
We explain the options that suit your door, including keypad-only, keypad with a physical key, and app-connected models. We are straightforward about trade-offs such as battery reliance, wireless range and how each lock fails safely.
- 4
Install and align the hardware
We remove the old hardware, fit the new lock, adjust the strike so the bolt throws smoothly, and test it repeatedly with the door open and closed. A bolt that drags will wear batteries quickly and cause lockouts.
- 5
Program codes and pair the app
We set up user codes, remove any factory defaults, and pair the lock with your phone or home system if it supports it. We keep the process simple, and we do not store your codes.

Walk through everyday use and backup access
Before we leave we show you how to change codes, replace batteries, use the backup key or emergency power option, and what the lock does when it is offline, so you are not stuck the first time something goes wrong.

What affects the price
- The type of lock chosen: a basic keypad deadbolt, a keypad lever or an app-connected model with wireless features all differ in hardware cost.
- Door condition and preparation: a door with correctly drilled bores is quicker to fit than one that needs adjusting, repairing or reinforcing.
- How many doors are being done: townhomes often need a front door, garage service door and patio door, and matching them can change the scope.
- Whether existing locks need to be removed, rekeyed or replaced, such as corroded coastal deadbolts that cannot be reused.
- Time of day and urgency, since we are available 24/7 and after-hours calls differ from scheduled daytime work.
- Extra setup, such as multiple user codes, integration with an existing smart home system or troubleshooting a lock another installer fitted.
Why Redondo Beach chooses us
- Serving the Los Angeles area since 1987, with owner and lead technician David Shar behind the work.
- Fully mobile and 24/7, so installation and troubleshooting come to your door with no storefront trip.
- We evaluate the door and frame first rather than just bolting hardware on, which prevents many early failures.
- Honest guidance on when a simpler keypad or a standard deadbolt is a better fit than a feature-heavy smart lock.
- We handle both installation and troubleshooting, including locks installed by others that have stopped working properly.
- Practical attention to coastal conditions, since salt air affects finishes, cylinders and electronics near the harbor and beach.
Smart Lock Installation across Redondo Beach
Redondo Beach splits naturally into South Redondo (ZIP 90277) and North Redondo (ZIP 90278), and the doors differ between them. In South Redondo, the hillside homes of Hollywood Riviera and the older bungalows and Spanish-style houses around Riviera Village often have original doors with older bores and corroded exterior hardware. Upgrading one of these to a keypad or smart deadbolt can be a good moment to replace a worn cylinder with a sturdier one, and we check that the door still closes cleanly before we drill or fit anything.
North Redondo, including El Nido, Golden Hills and The Avenues in 90278, has many attached townhomes and small-lot homes from the 1980s through the 2000s. A new owner there might want the front, garage service and rear patio doors all on one key or one set of codes, and smart locks make that straightforward. We also keep in mind HOA rules about exterior hardware and common gates and garages, so it is worth checking your association's guidelines before choosing a finish.
Near the Redondo Beach Pier, King Harbor Marina and Seaside Lagoon, salt air and moisture are a constant. Keypads and cylinders in these areas work harder, so we favor weather-rated hardware and talk through upkeep. Whether you are off Pacific Coast Hwy, Artesia Blvd, Torrance Blvd, Aviation Blvd or Inglewood Ave, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.
