A commercial door works hard. On a busy stretch of Ventura Blvd, a storefront or office door may open and close hundreds of times a day, and the hardware takes that punishment: closers lose their tension, latches drag, panic bars stick, and cylinders wear until keys bind. When that hardware fails, you either cannot lock up at night or cannot get customers and staff in during the day.
Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner David Shar leads the work. Our commercial door hardware service covers repair and replacement of storefront hardware, aluminum-frame door hardware, and mortise locksets, which are common in the older commercial buildings and professional suites around Tarzana.
We are a fully mobile locksmith. There is no shop counter to visit; we bring tools, parts and know-how to your door, whether that is a medical suite near Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center, a retail unit on Reseda Blvd, or a small office off Tampa Ave. We work around your business hours, including nights and weekends, so a broken door does not have to mean a closed business.
How it works in Tarzana
- 1
Call and describe the door
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what the door is doing: will not latch, will not unlock, closer slamming, bar stuck. Mention whether it is glass storefront, aluminum-frame, or a wood or metal door with a mortise lock. That helps us bring the right parts.
- 2
On-site inspection
We come to your location and look at the whole door assembly, not just the lock. Alignment, hinges, closer, strike, and the cylinder all affect each other, and a lock that seems broken is sometimes a door that has sagged.
- 3
Repair or replace, explained plainly
We tell you what can be saved and what should be replaced. Many mortise cases and aluminum-frame latches can be rebuilt or adjusted. If a part is worn out or no longer made, we explain the options before any work starts.
- 4
Install and fine-tune
We fit the hardware, then adjust closer speed, latching, and strike position so the door operates smoothly and locks fully. On aluminum-frame doors we are careful with narrow stiles and the cutouts they allow.
- 5
Keying and key control
If staffing has changed, we can rekey or set up keying so old keys no longer work. For multi-tenant or medical suites, we can discuss master-key arrangements that fit how your team actually uses the space.
- 6
Test and walk-through
Before we leave, we cycle the door, test the lock from both sides, and confirm it secures. We show you any maintenance you can do, such as when a closer or latch needs attention.

What affects the price
- Type of door and frame: glass storefront, aluminum-frame, and mortise doors each need different hardware and labor.
- Repair versus replacement: rebuilding a mortise lock or adjusting a closer differs from installing all-new hardware.
- Grade and brand of hardware: heavy-duty commercial-grade parts differ from lighter-duty options, and some older models need special-order parts.
- Number of doors and keying needs: multiple doors, rekeying, or master-key systems change the scope of work.
- Condition of the door and frame: sagging, misalignment, or damaged stiles may need correction before new hardware works properly.
- Time of service: after-hours or emergency calls may be handled differently than scheduled work, which we can explain when you call.
Why Tarzana chooses us
- In business since 1987, with owner David Shar leading the work, so you are not handed off to an unfamiliar crew.
- Fully mobile and available 24/7; we come to your door instead of asking you to bring anything to a shop.
- Comfortable with older mortise hardware, not just newer cylindrical sets, which matters in long-standing Valley buildings.
- We look at the whole door system, including closer, hinges and strike, so you do not pay to replace a lock when alignment is the real problem.
- Rekeying and key-control help after staff turnover, so former employees' keys stop working.
- Straight explanations of repair versus replace, with options laid out before work begins.
Commercial Door Hardware across Tarzana
Tarzana is split by Ventura Blvd, and so are its commercial needs. The Ventura Blvd medical and commercial corridor is dense with professional offices, clinics and storefronts, many near Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center. Medical and professional suites often use master-keyed systems, and after staffing changes a rekey or hardware update is a common request. Doors in this corridor in ZIP 91356 see heavy daily use, and we repair and replace closers, latches, panic hardware and mortise locks for them.
North of the Boulevard, the Tarzana flats mix 1950s-era apartments and homes with small commercial spaces along Reseda Blvd, Tampa Ave and Lindley Ave. Older buildings here sometimes still carry mortise hardware that has seized or worn out; we can often extract and rebuild it instead of replacing everything. South of the Boulevard, toward the Santa Monica Mountains and ZIP 91357 near Mulholland Dr, we also work with hillside properties and the occasional office or club-style facility, including the El Caballero area.
We reach Tarzana by Ventura Blvd, Reseda Blvd and the US-101 (Ventura Fwy), and because we are mobile, the same service reaches a storefront near the Tarzana Recreation Center as easily as an office on the corridor. Call (323) 997-8867 any hour.
