Rekeying changes the internal pin configuration of a lock so that a new key works and every previously issued key does not. The hardware stays on the door, so you keep the look of your existing locks without paying to replace them. In Westlake Village, that makes it a practical choice after buying a home, going through a divorce or roommate change, losing a key, or finishing a remodel where contractors held copies.

The city's housing is a mix that rewards a careful approach. Master-planned neighborhoods from the 1970s and 80s, lakefront homes with gates and private docks, gated estates, newer custom builds, HOA townhomes and condos, and corporate office parks all sit within a short drive of each other. A single job can involve a deadbolt, a handleset, a gate lock, a mailbox lock and a smart lock, and each one needs to be handled correctly so the final result is one key that fits everything you want it to.

Crenshaw Lock Company has served Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, led by owner and lead technician David Shar. We are fully mobile, with no storefront to visit. We work at your property, rekey on site, and test every lock before we leave so you know the old keys are truly out of the picture.

How it works in Westlake Village

  1. 1

    Call and describe the locks

    Call (323) 997-8867 and tell us what needs rekeying: front door, back door, garage entry, gate, mailbox, or an entire office suite. Mention the brands if you know them, and whether any are smart locks or multipoint systems, so we arrive prepared.

  2. 2

    We come to you

    We are 24/7 and fully mobile, so service happens at your property rather than at a shop. Whether you are in a First Neighborhood home, a Three Springs residence or an office park off Lindero Canyon Road, the work is done on site.

  3. 3

    Inspect each lock

    Before we change anything, we check that each cylinder is in good working order. Rekeying only makes sense on hardware that is sound. If a lock is worn, damaged or corroded, we will tell you plainly and explain whether rekeying or replacement is the better route.

  4. 4

    Rekey to a new key

    We remove the cylinders, reset the pins to a new configuration and reassemble them. Multiple locks can be keyed alike so one key operates your front door, side door and other entries, which is convenient for families and property managers.

  5. 5

    Test and hand over keys

    We cycle every lock with the new key, confirm smooth operation, and verify that the old key no longer works. You receive your new keys, and we can cut extra copies if you need them for family members, staff or a property manager.

  6. 6

    Note follow-up items

    If we notice an issue that rekeying alone will not fix, such as a loose strike plate, a failing smart lock battery or a worn gate latch, we point it out so you can decide what to do next.

What affects the price

  • The number of locks or cylinders being rekeyed, since each one is disassembled, reset and tested.
  • The type of hardware: standard deadbolts and knobs are different from multipoint systems, gate locks, mailbox locks and commercial cylinders.
  • Whether locks are to be keyed alike or to a master key system, which takes more planning for offices and HOAs.
  • The condition of the existing locks, as corrosion or wear may call for replacement parts instead of a straight rekey.
  • The number of additional keys you want cut.
  • The time of day and the complexity of the property, such as multiple buildings or gated access.

Why Westlake Village chooses us

  • Fully mobile service, so we rekey on site at your home, townhome or office with no need to bring locks anywhere.
  • In business since 1987, with an owner who is an active lead technician rather than a name on a sign.
  • Honest recommendations: if a lock is too worn or corroded to rekey well, we say so instead of upselling.
  • Comfortable with the local mix, from lakefront gates and smart locks to HOA common-area hardware and office-park suites.
  • Available 24/7, so a lost key or a sudden security concern does not have to wait for business hours.
  • We test every lock and confirm old keys no longer work before we leave.

Lock Rekeying across Westlake Village

Westlake Village sits on the Los Angeles and Ventura County line, and its ZIP codes, including 91361, 91362 and 91359, are shared with Thousand Oaks. That means addresses can be confusing, so when you call (323) 997-8867 it helps to give us your street and nearest cross street, such as Westlake Blvd (SR-23), Lindero Canyon Road or Agoura Road.

On Westlake Island, lakefront homes near Westlake Lake often combine a gate, a front multipoint lock and a smart lock, and the lake air can be hard on exposed hardware. If you have just bought a home there, rekeying the entries is a sensible first step, and we can check for corrosion at the same time. In First Neighborhood and Three Springs, homes from the master-planned era often still have original builder locks and many unknown keys in circulation, which makes a rekey after a sale especially worthwhile.

Closer to The Promenade and The Shoppes at Westlake Village, townhome and condo associations may need common-area doors and mailbox locks rekeyed on a single visit. Along the US-101 corridor, office parks and aluminum-storefront suites often need a master rekey after tenant turnover. We can work around your schedule and keep the key system organized so management stays in control.

Lock Rekeying in Westlake Village — FAQs

What is the difference between rekeying and replacing a lock?
Rekeying changes the internal pins so a new key works and old keys do not, while the lock hardware stays in place. Replacement swaps the whole lock. Rekeying is usually the simpler option if the lock is in good condition.
Should I rekey after buying a home in Westlake Village?
Yes, it is a smart step. Previous owners, agents, contractors and neighbors may hold copies. Rekeying ensures only the keys you hold will work. Call (323) 997-8867 to arrange it.
Can you rekey locks on Westlake Island, including gates?
Yes. We can rekey front door locks and many gate locks, and we check for lake-air corrosion that may affect how well they work. Smart locks may need separate attention, such as battery or code updates.
Can you make all my locks work with one key?
In most cases, yes. We can key compatible locks alike so one key opens your front, back and side doors. Brand and lock type affect what is possible, so tell us what you have when you call.
Do you rekey for HOAs and townhome communities?
Yes. We can rekey common-area doors, gates and mailbox locks, and organize keys so the board or property manager knows what opens what. Call (323) 997-8867 to discuss your community.
Can you do a master rekey for an office park?
Yes. After tenant turnover, we can rekey suites and set up a master key system. We can also advise on access control updates alongside the mechanical locks.
Will rekeying work on my smart lock?
Many smart locks have a standard key cylinder that can be rekeyed, but the electronic side is separate. Codes, credentials and batteries should be updated as well. We will look at your model on site.
Do you have a shop I can visit?
No. We are fully mobile and come to you, 24/7. Call (323) 997-8867 and we will talk through your situation and set up a visit at your property.
