Installing a lock is more than screwing hardware into a door. The door has to be bored correctly, the latch and strike have to line up, and the lock has to suit how you actually use the entry. In Stevenson Ranch, where many homes are large two-story houses built in the 1990s and 2000s, that work covers a lot of ground: front entries, side yard doors, garage service doors, patio doors, and new construction or remodel doors that have no lock at all.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and David Shar leads the work. We are fully mobile, so there is no shop to drive to. We come to your home, look at the door, and install on the spot. Because we work around the clock, we can also handle an install that cannot wait, such as a door that was just damaged or a new door that leaves a room unsecured overnight.
Many Stevenson Ranch homeowners are upgrading rather than starting from scratch. Some are adding a deadbolt where builder hardware only had a knob lock, some are adding smart locks that tie in with an alarm system, and some are fitting a new door installed during a remodel. Each case is a little different, and we match the hardware to the door, the household, and your HOA's expectations for exterior appearance.
How it works in Stevenson Ranch
- 1
Talk through the door and the goal
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what you are installing: a new deadbolt, a handleset, a smart lock, or hardware for a brand-new door. Describe the door material and thickness if you can, and whether an alarm or smart-home system is involved.
- 2
Inspect the door and frame on site
We check the door's thickness, material, existing bore holes, and the condition of the frame. A lock is only as strong as what it is fastened to, so we look for weak jambs, thin strike mounting, or prior damage before drilling.
- 3
Choose hardware that fits
We go over options with you, including grade of hardware, finish, keying, and smart-lock compatibility. If your HOA cares about exterior finishes, we factor in matching the look of neighboring fixtures.
- 4
Install and align
We bore or adapt the door as needed, set the latch and strike, and reinforce the strike area where the frame calls for it. Alignment matters, since a lock that binds will wear out early or fail to throw fully.
- 5
Key, test, and walk you through it
We test the lock from both sides, confirm the bolt extends fully, and cut or set keys. For smart locks we pair the lock, set up codes, and show you how to manage them. Then we clean up and hand over everything you need.

What affects the price
- Type of lock: a basic deadbolt, a keyed handleset, and a smart lock with app and code features involve very different hardware and setup time.
- Door condition: a new, pre-drilled door is simpler than one that needs boring from scratch or repairs to an old bore.
- Frame and strike reinforcement: weak or damaged jambs may need reinforcement to make the lock worthwhile.
- Number of doors and keying: installing several locks and keying them alike takes more hardware and time than a single lock.
- Smart-lock integration: tying into an alarm or home system, and setting up user codes, adds configuration work.
- Time of service: an after-hours or urgent call is handled differently from a scheduled install.
Why Stevenson Ranch chooses us
- Fully mobile: we do the work at your door, with no storefront trip and no need to remove the door.
- Serving the area since 1987, so we have seen decades of door and lock styles, including builder-grade hardware common in 1990s and 2000s homes.
- Owner-led: David Shar leads the work rather than handing it off to a call center.
- Available 24/7, useful when a door has been damaged or a new door leaves your home open.
- We inspect the door and frame first and tell you plainly if something needs reinforcing, rather than installing hardware into a weak jamb.
- Comfortable with both traditional hardware and smart locks, including ones that need to work alongside an alarm.
Lock Installation across Stevenson Ranch
Stevenson Ranch is a master-planned community off I-5, with The Old Road and Stevenson Ranch Parkway tying the neighborhoods together. In Southern Oaks, Pinetree, and Diamondhead, we often see two-story homes with builder-grade hardware, where owners want to add a stronger deadbolt or replace an aging handleset. In ZIP code 91381, a mobile visit means we can install on a front door, a side gate entry, or a garage service door in one trip.
The Oaks of Stevenson Ranch is a gated enclave, and homes there tend to pair gate access control with higher-end entry doors, alarms, and smart locks. A smart-lock install in a home like that is as much about compatibility as hardware, so we confirm how it fits your system before we start. HOA guidelines in the community often govern exterior finishes, so we help you pick a finish that looks right on the door.
Some homes sit on hillsides near wildland edges, and the area deals with Santa Ana wind events. Doors and frames that flex or shift can affect how a lock lines up, so we check alignment carefully. Whether you are near Pico Canyon Road, close to Pico Canyon Park and Mentryville, or on the side of the community nearest Six Flags Magic Mountain, we come to you at any hour.
