A commercial door works harder than almost any other part of a building. It opens and closes hundreds of times a day, gets leaned on, slammed, and propped open, and it has to lock reliably every night. In West Hills, that includes medical and professional offices, shops along Platt Ave, Sherman Way, Vanowen St and Roscoe Blvd, and small businesses tucked into centers off Victory Blvd and Fallbrook Ave. When the hardware wears out, the symptoms are familiar: a latch that sticks, a door that won't close fully, a lock that turns only with a jiggle, or a panic device that no longer retracts cleanly.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar. We repair and replace the hardware found on commercial doors: storefront and aluminum-frame door locks, mortise lock bodies and cylinders, push bars and pull handles, exit devices, and the strikes and latches that go with them. We are a mobile service only. There is no storefront to visit, because the work happens at your door.

The goal is always the same: a door that opens easily for your customers, locks firmly for your closing routine, and does not become a recurring service call. Sometimes that means a small repair to a worn part. Sometimes it means telling you honestly that the hardware has reached the end of its life and replacement is the more sensible path.

How it works in West Hills

  1. 1

    Tell us about the door and the problem

    Call (323) 997-8867 any hour. Describe the door type (glass storefront, aluminum frame, or a solid door with a mortise lock), what it is doing, and whether the building is currently secure. If it isn't, we treat that as the priority.

  2. 2

    We come to your business

    Because we are fully mobile, a technician travels to your West Hills location with a range of commercial hardware and tools. Nothing requires you to bring the door anywhere, and there is no shop counter involved.

  3. 3

    Inspect the hardware and the door itself

    Many hardware complaints are really alignment problems. We check hinges, closers, strike position, door sag, and the frame as well as the lock itself, so we fix the cause rather than the symptom.

  4. 4

    Explain repair versus replacement

    We walk through your options plainly. A worn cylinder or latch may be repaired or swapped. A tired mortise body, a damaged exit device, or a mismatched set may be better replaced. You decide before work starts.

  5. 5

    Repair or install the hardware

    We service or install the new components, fit them to the existing door preparation where possible, and adjust strikes and latches so the door closes and locks without force.

  6. 6

    Test, key, and hand over

    We cycle the door repeatedly, confirm it latches and locks from both sides, and test any exit device. If keys are involved, we make sure the right people have working keys and discuss rekeying if past keys are unaccounted for.

What affects the price

  • The type of hardware: a standard cylinder or latch differs a great deal from a mortise lock body or a full exit device, in both part cost and labor.
  • Door and frame material and condition: aluminum storefront stiles are narrow and need specific hardware, and a sagging or misaligned door may need adjustment on top of the lock work.
  • Repair versus full replacement: servicing a worn part is usually less involved than replacing an entire lockset, trim, and strike.
  • Grade and finish of the replacement hardware, including whether you need to match existing doors across a suite or building.
  • Number of doors and any rekeying or key-system requirements, such as matching several doors to one key.
  • Timing and urgency: an after-hours call to secure a damaged entry is a different job from a scheduled hardware upgrade during the day.

Why West Hills chooses us

  • Fully mobile, 24/7 service: we come to your West Hills business at night or on weekends when a door can't be left unsecured.
  • Operating since 1987, with owner and lead technician David Shar bringing decades of hands-on experience with commercial hardware.
  • We diagnose the whole door, not just the lock, since closers, hinges, and strikes are often the real reason hardware keeps failing.
  • Honest repair-or-replace advice: if a part can be saved sensibly we say so, and if it has run its course we explain why.
  • Experience across storefront, aluminum-frame, and mortise setups, which are common in the shopping strips and professional buildings of the west San Fernando Valley.
  • Clear communication before work begins, with price discussed in terms of what drives it rather than vague promises.

Commercial Door Hardware across West Hills

West Hills sits at the western edge of the San Fernando Valley, and its commercial life reflects that. Businesses cluster along Platt Ave in Platt Village, along Sherman Way, Vanowen St, Victory Blvd, Roscoe Blvd, Saticoy St, and Fallbrook Ave, and near the medical activity around West Hills Hospital & Medical Center. Many of these buildings date from the decades when this area was still part of Canoga Park and Owensmouth, before West Hills was named in 1987, and original storefront and aluminum-frame door hardware is often well past its best.

We serve business owners and property managers across the 91307, 91304, and 91308 ZIP codes, from small offices and retail suites near the Shadow Ranch area to professional spaces closer to the Valley Circle foothills toward Bell Canyon. Because West Hills is largely suburban, many commercial doors here are in modest strip centers and office buildings where a single failing latch affects the whole business, and a quick on-site fix matters.

Whether you operate near Shadow Ranch Park, close to Chaminade College Preparatory, or on the busier stretches of Roscoe and Victory, we come to you. If a door was damaged, won't latch, or you simply want worn hardware replaced before it fails, call (323) 997-8867 and we will plan the visit around your business.

Commercial Door Hardware in West Hills — FAQs

What types of commercial door hardware do you repair in West Hills?
We work on storefront and aluminum-frame door locks, mortise lock bodies and cylinders, push bars, pull handles, exit devices, strikes, and latches. Call (323) 997-8867 and describe your door so we can arrive prepared.
Are you available after hours or on weekends?
Yes. We are a 24/7 mobile locksmith, so a door that cannot be secured at night or on a weekend can be addressed any time. Call (323) 997-8867.
Do I need to bring anything to your shop?
No. We are mobile only and have no storefront. A technician comes to your West Hills business and does the work on site.
Should I repair or replace my mortise lock?
It depends on wear, parts availability, and whether the door still operates smoothly. We inspect it and tell you plainly whether a repair makes sense or replacement is the better long-term choice.
My aluminum storefront door won't latch properly. Is it the lock?
Often it is not. Misaligned strikes, sagging doors, worn hinges, or a closer out of adjustment are common causes. We check the whole door so the fix actually lasts.
Can you match several doors to one key?
Yes. We can rekey or fit hardware so multiple doors operate on a single key where the hardware allows. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your setup.
How is the price determined?
It depends on the hardware type, door and frame condition, whether it is a repair or replacement, finish and grade, the number of doors, and the timing of the call. We explain these factors before work starts.
Do you serve all of West Hills?
Yes, including the 91307, 91304, and 91308 ZIP codes and neighborhoods such as Platt Village and the Shadow Ranch area. We cover business districts along Sherman Way, Vanowen, Victory, Roscoe, and beyond.
