Rolling Hills is unlike almost any other place we work. It is a single gated enclave of large ranch-style homes on one-acre-plus lots, with white three-rail fencing, bridle trails, barns and long private roads. A locksmith call here is rarely just a front door. It might involve a main house, a guest cottage, a barn, a tack room and an electronic driveway gate, all on one property.

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, with no storefront to visit. Our work comes to your property, whether you need a lock rekeyed after a staffing change, worn hardware replaced, or a lockout resolved late at night.

Our residential service covers the full range: rekeying, new deadbolts and handlesets, repairs to sticking or damaged locks, high-security upgrades, and help coordinating multiple doors onto a single key system. We explain the options plainly so you can decide what suits your home and your property.

How it works in Rolling Hills

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what is happening: a lockout, a rekey, worn hardware or an upgrade. Give us your street and which gate you normally use, so we can plan how to reach you.

  2. 2

    Gate clearance

    Rolling Hills entry is controlled by manned security gates. We ask you to let the gate know we are expected, so our technician can be cleared through and reach your home without confusion.

  3. 3

    Assess the locks and property

    On arrival we look at the doors, the existing hardware and its condition. On a ranch property we also ask about outbuildings, barns, tack rooms and gates that may need attention.

  4. 4

    Explain options before work begins

    We lay out what we recommend, such as rekey versus replace, and what each choice means for security and convenience. You decide before we start.

  5. 5

    Do the work on site

    We rekey, repair, install or open the lock using our mobile equipment, and aim to preserve your doors and finishes wherever possible.

  6. 6

    Test and hand over keys

    We test every lock and key with you, confirm doors latch and lock smoothly, and hand over the new keys. We also point out anything worth watching, such as weathered hardware.

What affects the price

  • Whether the job is a lockout, a rekey, a repair or a full hardware replacement, since each takes different skill, parts and time.
  • The number of locks involved, which matters on estates with a main house plus guest house, barn and tack room.
  • The type and grade of hardware chosen, from standard deadbolts to high-security cylinders and finer handlesets.
  • The condition of existing locks, especially older or weather-corroded hardware that may be harder to service or need replacing.
  • Whether you want multiple doors keyed alike or set on a master key arrangement for family, caretakers or staff.
  • The time of day and urgency of the call, since we are available around the clock and after-hours work differs from scheduled visits.

Why Rolling Hills chooses us

  • Fully mobile service, so we work at your property and there is no shop you need to visit.
  • In business since 1987, giving us decades of experience with older ranch-era hardware and modern locks alike.
  • Owner David Shar leads the work, so there is clear accountability for the service you receive.
  • Comfortable with multi-building properties, rekeying a house, barn and tack room together so one key plan covers everything.
  • We explain repair versus replacement honestly and do not push upgrades you do not need.
  • Available 24/7, including nights and weekends, for lockouts and urgent security concerns.

Residential Locksmith across Rolling Hills

Rolling Hills has three manned entries: the Main Gate off Palos Verdes Drive North that serves the Portuguese Bend Road area, the Eastfield Gate serving the Eastfield Drive area, and the Crest Gate serving the Crest Road area. Because every visit passes through security, we ask residents to notify the gate in advance. That small step keeps a lockout or urgent call moving smoothly. Within the community, roads like Rolling Hills Road, Crest Road and Eastfield Drive are private, quiet and often unlit at night.

Many homes in ZIP code 90274 are mid-century California ranch houses from the 1950s and 60s. Their hilltop setting brings fog and salt air, which can corrode exterior locksets, hinges and deadbolts over the years. When a key starts to stick or a handleset feels rough, replacing weathered hardware is often wiser than repeated repairs, and we can recommend finishes that hold up better outdoors.

Equestrian properties add their own needs. After a change of caretaker or ranch-hand staff, rekeying the main house along with barn and tack-room locks gives you control of who has access. Some estates also have electronic driveway gates beside original ranch-era locksets, and we can help make the manual locks on your property consistent and secure. Wherever you are, from near the Flying Triangle area to the bridle-trail edges, call (323) 997-8867.

Residential Locksmith in Rolling Hills — FAQs

Do you serve all of Rolling Hills, including inside the gates?
Yes. We are a mobile locksmith and travel to homes throughout Rolling Hills. Because the community has manned security gates, please let the gate know we are expected. Call (323) 997-8867 to arrange it.
I am locked out of my ranch home at night. Can you help?
We are available 24/7. Call (323) 997-8867, tell us your address and which gate serves you, and we will coordinate getting through security to reach you.
Can you rekey the house, barn and tack room together?
Yes. We can rekey multiple buildings so one key operates them all, or keep some separate. This is common after a change of caretaker or staff.
Should I rekey or replace after staff changes?
If the hardware is in good condition, rekeying is usually enough to make old keys useless. If locks are worn or corroded, replacement may be better. We will explain both honestly.
My exterior locks are corroded from the coastal fog. What can be done?
Hilltop fog and salt air can wear down older hardware. We can inspect, repair what is serviceable and replace what is not, suggesting finishes that tolerate the climate.
Do you work on older mid-century ranch-style locksets?
Yes. We have worked on residential hardware since 1987, including older locksets. Where parts are hard to find, we discuss suitable replacements that fit your doors.
Do you have a shop I can visit?
No. We are fully mobile only, with no storefront. We bring the service to your Rolling Hills property.
How is the price of a residential job determined?
It depends on the type of work, number of locks, hardware grade, condition of existing locks and urgency. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your situation.
