Keyed lock on a wrought iron gate at golden hour

Open now(323) 997-8867

A gate is the first lock a visitor meets, and in Toluca Lake it often does more than keep a yard closed. It marks the edge of a lakefront estate, keeps a pool area secure, or controls the side entrance to a 1930s Tudor. When the latch sticks, the keypad stops responding, or the bolt no longer lines up with the strike, the whole property feels less secure. Crenshaw Lock Company repairs these problems on site.

We have served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar has spent decades working on the kinds of hardware found in older neighborhoods like this one. We are fully mobile, so there is no storefront to visit. We work from the vehicle at your gate, and we are available around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays.

Gate locks take a beating that interior locks never see. They sit in sun, sprinklers, coastal-inland temperature swings and dust, and they get slammed by guests, gardeners and delivery drivers. Wrought iron, wood and aluminum gates each fail in their own ways. Our approach is to diagnose the real cause first, repair what can be repaired, and replace only what has to be replaced, whether that means a simple latch, a keypad lock, or a smart gate lock.

How it works in Toluca Lake

1
Call and describe the gate
Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what the gate is made of, what type of lock or latch it has, and what is going wrong. Is it jammed, loose, not latching, or locked out? That helps us bring the right parts.
2
On-site inspection
We check the latch, bolt, strike plate, hinges, and any keypad or electronic parts. Gates often sag over time, and a lock that seems broken is sometimes just misaligned. We look for that before suggesting any replacement.
3
Repair, adjust or replace
We repair or realign the hardware where that solves the problem. If a latch or lock is worn out, rusted through or no longer suited to the gate, we explain the options, including keypad and smart gate locks, before we start.
4
Rekey or reprogram if needed
If keys have gone missing, staff have changed or a code has been shared too widely, we rekey the lock or set new keypad codes so old access no longer works. We can often match the gate to your existing keys as well.
5
Test and walk through
We operate the gate several times from both sides, confirm it latches cleanly and show you how to use any new keypad or smart features. You leave knowing the gate works and who has access.

What affects the price

The type of lock involved: a basic latch, a keyed gate lock, a keypad lock and a smart gate lock differ widely in hardware cost and setup effort.
Whether the existing hardware can be repaired or realigned, or must be replaced because of rust, wear or damage.
The gate material and condition, since wrought iron, wood and aluminum need different mounting methods and sagging gates may need extra adjustment.
Whether rekeying, code changes or programming of multiple users or devices is needed in addition to the repair.
The number of gates or locks being serviced in a single visit, such as a driveway gate, pedestrian gate and pool gate together.
The time of the call and how much specialty or custom hardware is needed, since after-hours service and hard-to-source parts can affect the final quote.

We work with traditional keyed gate locks as well as keypad and smart gate locks, so the recommendation fits the property rather than a single product line.
Rekeying and code changes are part of what we do, which suits estates that change household staff, tenants or service providers.
No storefront overhead or pressure to visit a shop: we do the work at your gate and explain the options on the spot.

Gate Lock Repair across Toluca Lake

Toluca Lake is a small, distinctive community, and its gates reflect that. Around the private lake and in Toluca Woods, many properties have gated entries, long drives and decorative ironwork that goes with 1920s to 1940s Spanish Colonial Revival, Tudor and Traditional homes. A lakefront estate that has changed household staff, for example, often needs the gate and the front door rekeyed together so that old keys and shared codes stop working. We handle both in one visit and keep the existing look of the hardware whenever we can.

We also see a mix of other settings. West Toluca Lake includes some mid-century apartment buildings where pedestrian and parking gates see constant daily use, and Toluca Lake Village has the small aluminum-storefront strip along Riverside Drive, where rear and service gates matter as much as the front door. Whether your address falls in 91602 or 91610, or on the Burbank side in 91505, we come to you. Properties near Lakeside Golf Club, off Riverside Dr, Lankershim Blvd or Barham Blvd, and close to the studios at Warner Bros. and Universal are all within the area we serve from the US-101 corridor and Cahuenga Blvd.

Because so many homes here have original hardware that owners want to preserve, we start by asking what is worth keeping. A gate latch that has been in place for decades can often be cleaned, adjusted and rekeyed rather than swapped out. When a modern keypad or smart gate lock really is the better answer, we will explain how it works and what it will mean for daily use. Call (323) 997-8867 any time to get started.
