Westlake Village is a city of office parks, aluminum-storefront retail and HOA-managed communities, and almost every one of those buildings has the same quiet problem: too many physical keys in too many hands. Access control replaces that with keypads, cards or key fobs, so you decide who can enter, at which door, and you can end that access without changing a single cylinder.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, and owner and lead technician David Shar has seen how these systems succeed and fail in real buildings. The most common failures are rarely about the electronics. They come from a lock that does not suit the door, a power supply that was an afterthought, or a system the staff never learned to manage after the installer left.

We are mobile only, with no storefront to visit. We come to your site, look at the actual door, frame and hardware, and recommend a setup that fits how your people really come and go. Whether it is one suite entrance or several doors across a business park, we plan the work around your business day.

How it works in Westlake Village

  1. 1

    Talk through your entrances

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us which doors need control, how many people use them, and what problem you are solving, such as tenant turnover, lost keys or after-hours access. This shapes everything that follows.

  2. 2

    On-site door and hardware assessment

    We come to your location and inspect each door, frame and existing lock. Aluminum storefront doors, solid office doors and glass entries each need different hardware, and we check for things like door alignment, closers and where wiring can run.

  3. 3

    Choose the credential type

    We help you decide among keypad codes, proximity cards or key fobs. Keypads suit small teams, while cards and fobs are easier to issue and cancel when staff or tenants change often.

  4. 4

    Installation and wiring

    We mount the reader or keypad, fit the electric strike or electrified lock, and set up power and the controller. We aim to keep the door secure and working throughout, and to leave the entrance tidy.

  5. 5

    Programming and testing

    We enroll credentials, set who can use which door and when, and test every door repeatedly, including how it behaves during a power interruption and how it meets exit and life-safety needs.

  6. 6

    Hand-off and training

    We show the people responsible how to add and remove users, and explain what to do if a card is lost or a battery runs low, so you are not dependent on us for routine changes.

What affects the price

  • The number of doors being controlled, since each door needs its own reader, lock hardware and wiring.
  • Door type and condition: aluminum storefront, glass, wood or metal doors each call for different electrified hardware and may need frame or alignment work.
  • Credential choice: simple keypads, cards and fobs, or a system that supports many users and scheduled access differ in equipment and setup effort.
  • Wiring complexity, including how far the controller sits from the door and whether cable can be run through existing walls or ceilings.
  • Whether you are adding to an existing system after a tenant change or starting from scratch with traditional keys.
  • The size of the job and timing, including after-hours work requested outside normal business hours.

Why Westlake Village chooses us

  • Fully mobile service: we come to your Westlake Village site, assess the real doors and install on location.
  • Available 24/7, so a failed reader or an urgent post-tenant lockout can be addressed when it matters, not only on weekdays.
  • In business since 1987, with owner David Shar directly involved, so you are not handed to an unknown subcontractor.
  • We pair access control with traditional locksmith skills, such as rekeying and hardware repair, so one visit can cover both the electronic and mechanical side of an entrance.
  • We recommend only what suits your doors and staff, and we explain tradeoffs honestly rather than pushing the most elaborate system.
  • We train your team to manage users themselves, so changes after turnover do not require a service call.

Access Control across Westlake Village

Westlake Village sits at the Los Angeles and Ventura County line, and its ZIP codes, including 91361, 91362 and 91359, are shared with Thousand Oaks. We work across the business districts near Thousand Oaks Blvd, Agoura Rd and Lindero Canyon Road, as well as properties along Westlake Blvd (SR-23) and just off the US-101 Ventura Freeway.

A common situation here is an office park where a tenant moves out and another moves in. The old tenant's cards, codes and keys are still out there, so the building needs credentials canceled, locks rekeyed and the access system updated. Retail spaces around The Promenade and The Shoppes at Westlake Village face a similar need for controlled back-of-house and storage entrances, often behind aluminum storefront doors that require careful hardware selection.

Residential-style properties have their own needs. HOA-managed townhomes and condos near the First Neighborhood and Three Springs often have shared common-area doors, mailbox locks and gates, and Westlake Island has gated lakefront homes where lake air can take a toll on exterior hardware. For any of these, we can look at the entrance in person, advise on durable, weather-appropriate hardware, and set up access that suits the people who use it.

Access Control in Westlake Village — FAQs

What types of access control do you install in Westlake Village?
We install keypad, card and key fob systems for business entrances. After looking at your doors and how many people use them, we recommend whichever suits you. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss it.
Can you work on aluminum storefront doors?
Yes. Aluminum storefront doors are common in Westlake Village retail areas, and they need hardware that fits narrow stiles and the specific frame. We inspect the door on site before recommending anything.
We just had a tenant turnover. Can you update our access?
Yes. We can cancel old credentials, rekey physical locks where needed and update the system so former tenants no longer have entry. This is a common reason office parks call us.
Do you have a shop I can visit?
No. We are fully mobile only, with no storefront. We come to your location in Westlake Village, so you do not need to bring anything in.
Are you available outside business hours?
We are available 24/7. If a reader fails or a door will not secure at night, call (323) 997-8867 and we will help.
Is keypad, card or fob better for my business?
It depends on how often people change. Keypads are simple for small stable groups, while cards and fobs are easier to cancel individually when staff or tenants turn over. We will explain the tradeoffs for your doors.
Can access control work for an HOA common area?
Often yes. HOA common doors and gates can use keypads or fobs so residents can be added or removed without rekeying everything. We can also rekey common-area and mailbox locks if that is the need.
How do I get a quote?
Pricing depends on factors such as door count, door type and wiring, so we assess your site first. Call (323) 997-8867 to describe your entrances and arrange a visit.
