San Fernando is a small city with a lot of working commercial space packed into it. Early-1900s brick buildings along San Fernando Road and the San Fernando Mall sit not far from light industrial sites, shops, offices and service businesses that depend on Truman Street, Maclay Avenue, Brand Boulevard and the I-5 and CA-118 corridors. Each of those buildings has its own locks, and many of them have a history that a generic lock swap does not respect.

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, so there is no storefront to visit. We drive to your location, look at the actual doors, and work on site, whether the problem is a jammed storefront lock, a rekey after a change of tenants, or a plan to tighten up security across a whole building.

Commercial work is different from residential work. Doors are used all day, keys are shared among employees, and a failed lock can mean a business cannot open or cannot be safely closed. We treat these calls with that in mind: we aim to fix the problem, explain your options plainly, and leave the building secure. We are available 24/7, including nights, weekends and holidays, so a break-in or a lockout does not have to wait until morning.

How it works in San Fernando

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what happened: a lockout, a damaged door after a break-in, a rekey after an ownership change, or a planned upgrade. Tell us the type of door and building if you know it. We are available around the clock.

  2. 2

    We travel to your business

    Our technician drives to your San Fernando location with commercial hardware and tools. Because we are mobile, the work happens at your door, whether that is a Mall storefront, an office suite or a warehouse bay.

  3. 3

    Inspect the doors and hardware

    Before touching anything, we look at the door, frame, lock type and condition. Older storefronts may have worn mortise locks or transom-era hardware, while newer sites may have commercial cylinders, panic bars or electronic readers.

  4. 4

    Repair, rekey, or replace

    We explain what is practical: often a worn lock can be repaired or rekeyed instead of replaced. After an ownership or tenant change, rekeying makes old keys useless without necessarily changing the hardware.

  5. 5

    Test and hand over keys

    We operate every lock repeatedly, check that doors close and latch properly, and cut and label the keys you need. We walk through what was done so you know exactly what is protecting your property.

  6. 6

    Plan any follow-up security

    If we notice weak points such as a loose strike, an unprotected rear door or keys with unknown holders, we point them out and suggest options such as a master key system or access control, without pressure.

What affects the price

  • Type of work: opening a locked door, repairing a lock, rekeying cylinders and installing new hardware all involve different labor and parts.
  • Hardware grade and condition: older mortise or storefront locks may need specialty parts, while standard commercial cylinders are generally simpler.
  • Number of doors and cylinders: rekeying one office door is a smaller job than a whole building with several entrances and a rear dock.
  • Key systems: master key or restricted-key setups require planning and extra key cutting compared with single keys.
  • Electronic components: access control, keypads and card readers add equipment and configuration work.
  • Time of service: after-hours, weekend and holiday emergency calls can be priced differently from scheduled daytime work.

Why San Fernando chooses us

  • Serving the region since 1987, so we have seen decades of commercial lock types, including older storefront and mortise hardware.
  • Fully mobile: we come to your business instead of asking you to bring anything to a shop, which matters when the door in question will not lock.
  • Open 24/7, so after-hours break-ins, lockouts and failed locks are not left until business hours.
  • Owner-led: David Shar leads the work, so there is clear accountability for how jobs are handled.
  • We favor repair and rekeying where it makes sense, which can preserve original doors in San Fernando's older downtown buildings.
  • We explain options in plain language and leave decisions to you, with no invented urgency.

Commercial Locksmith across San Fernando

San Fernando is its own incorporated city, often called The Mission City, and it is surrounded entirely by the City of Los Angeles. That small footprint is easy for a mobile locksmith to cover, and we reach businesses throughout ZIP code 91340 by way of San Fernando Road, Truman Street, Maclay Avenue, Brand Boulevard, the I-5 and CA-118.

Downtown is the heart of the commercial work. Around the San Fernando Mall, at Truman Street and San Fernando Road, many early-1900s brick buildings still have transoms, older storefront doors and mortise locks. A shop changing hands there often needs its lock repaired and rekeyed so previous keys no longer work, ideally without losing the character of the door. Not far from the Lopez Adobe and San Fernando City Hall, small offices and service businesses have similar needs.

Outside the Mall, businesses near the Layne Park and Recreation Park area and around Las Palmas Park range from small offices to workshops and storage buildings. Their needs run from replacing a failed cylinder to adding a deadbolt or panic hardware. We also help owners who live near their businesses, and for a quick residential lockout in the same neighborhood we can help as well, since San Fernando is fully reachable by road.

Commercial Locksmith in San Fernando — FAQs

Do you offer emergency commercial locksmith service in San Fernando at night?
Yes. We are available 24/7 and fully mobile. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour for a lockout, break-in damage or a door that will not secure.
Can you rekey my storefront after I buy or lease a business?
Yes. Rekeying changes the internal pins so old keys no longer work, usually without replacing the hardware. It is a common first step after an ownership or tenant change, including in older downtown buildings.
Can you work on older storefront doors and transom-era hardware?
Often, yes. Many early-1900s downtown buildings have mortise locks and older storefront hardware. We inspect the door first and repair or rekey where practical, replacing only when needed.
Do you have a shop in San Fernando I can visit?
No. We are mobile only. Our technician comes to your business, so there is nothing to drop off. Call (323) 997-8867 to arrange service.
What affects the cost of commercial lock service?
The type of work, the hardware grade, the number of doors, any master key or electronic components, and the time of day. We explain what applies to your job before work begins.
Can you set up a master key system for several doors?
Yes. A master key system lets different people open different doors with the right keys. It takes planning, so tell us about the doors and who needs access, and call (323) 997-8867.
Do you install access control or keypad locks for businesses?
We can discuss electronic options such as keypads and card readers where they suit your building and staff. We will look at the door and frame to recommend what is workable.
Can you help with a residential lockout in San Fernando too?
Yes. Besides commercial work, we help with home lockouts and lock upgrades, including older bungalows with original mortise locks. Call us any time.
