Losing a key fob in Reseda rarely happens at a convenient moment. It might slip out of a pocket at Reseda Park, disappear between the couch cushions of a Reseda Blvd apartment, or simply stop working after years of daily use. When the fob goes, the car often will not start, the doors will not unlock remotely, and a dealership trip across the Valley starts to sound like a whole day gone.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and David Shar and our technicians handle key fob work directly at your vehicle. We are a mobile service only, with no storefront to drive to. We bring the equipment to your driveway, your apartment parking space, or the lot behind your Sherman Way business, and we work at any hour.
We replace and program standard remote-head keys, flip keys, and push-button smart or proximity fobs. Whether you have lost every key or just need a spare before the only one fails, we will explain what your vehicle needs, what the job involves, and what affects the cost, before we start work.
How it works in Reseda
- 1
Call and describe the vehicle
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us the make, model, and year, and whether you have any working key left. We will explain what type of fob your car likely uses and whether it is a remote-head key, a flip key, or a smart key.
- 2
We come to you in Reseda
Because we are fully mobile, we travel to wherever the car is parked: a bungalow driveway near Reseda Park, an apartment carport off Victory Blvd, or a business lot along Sherman Way. There is no need to tow the vehicle.
- 3
Verify ownership
Before cutting or programming anything, we confirm that you are the owner or authorized user. This protects you and is a standard, responsible practice for any vehicle key work.
- 4
Cut and prepare the key or fob
If your vehicle uses a physical key blade or an emergency blade inside the fob, we cut it to match. We then prepare the new fob so it can communicate with your car's immobilizer system.
- 5
Program and pair the fob
We pair the new fob with your vehicle so the remote functions and engine start authorization work. Depending on the vehicle, this may include adding a spare or removing a lost fob from the system.
- 6
Test everything before we leave
We test lock, unlock, trunk, panic, and starting functions, and show you how everything works. If you wish, we can also set up an additional spare so you are not caught short again.

What affects the price
- Vehicle make, model, and year, since some systems are far more involved to program than others

- Whether you have a working key or all keys are lost, which changes how programming is done
- Whether a physical key blade must be cut in addition to programming the electronics

- Time of day and your location, since we are available around the clock and travel to you

Key Fob Replacement across Reseda
Reseda is a flat, car-dependent part of the central San Fernando Valley, and most households here rely on their vehicles daily. Along the Reseda Blvd commercial district and the Sherman Way corridor, many residents live in mid-century apartment buildings where parking is in carports or shared lots, and a lost fob can leave a car stuck in a space that other tenants need. In the quieter Reseda Park residential area, post-war bungalows and ranch homes usually have driveways where we can work easily on the car.
We serve ZIP codes 91335 and 91337 and the surrounding streets, including Vanowen St, Victory Blvd, Saticoy St, Roscoe Blvd, Tampa Ave, and Wilbur Ave. If you lose a fob at the Reseda Recreation Center, near the Reseda Theatre marquee on Sherman Way, or after a day out by the Sepulveda Basin and the LA River edge, we can meet you at the car. If you were heading for the US-101, a working fob matters even more.
Key problems often come with lock problems in this neighborhood. Many older Reseda homes still have original builder locks, and decades of frame settling since the 1994 Northridge earthquake can leave deadbolts misaligned. If your lost fob was on a ring with house keys, we can also talk through rekeying or lock repair while we are there. Property managers and small business owners on Sherman Way can ask about company vehicle fobs as well.
