A home in Westlake Village is rarely just a front door and a deadbolt. Many houses here were built in the master-planned 1970s and 80s communities, and over the decades they have collected a mix of original hardware, newer upgrades, gate and intercom systems, and smart locks. Lakefront properties, gated estates, condos and townhomes each bring their own lock questions. A residential locksmith who understands that mix saves a lot of guesswork.

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, so there is no storefront to visit. We come to your home, whether you are in the First Neighborhood, on Westlake Island or up in Three Springs, and we work on the lock in front of us rather than selling a package.

Residential work covers a wide range: rekeying after a move or a lost key, replacing worn or damaged hardware, repairing sticky or failing locks, adding deadbolts, and upgrading to higher-security or smart options. We are available around the clock, which matters when a lockout or a break-in attempt does not wait for business hours.

How it works in Westlake Village

  1. 1

    Call and describe the situation

    Phone (323) 997-8867 and tell us what is happening: a lockout, a lost key, a lock that sticks, or an upgrade you have been planning. Details such as the lock brand, whether it is a smart lock, and whether a gate or HOA is involved help us bring the right parts.

  2. 2

    We come to you

    We are a mobile service, so a technician travels to your home with tools and common hardware. Because Westlake Village sits right along US-101 and Westlake Blvd, we plan the route around where you are, whether that is a gated street or a condo complex.

  3. 3

    Assess the locks and the property

    Before any work, we look at the doors, locks, strikes and frames. On older homes we check for worn cylinders and loose hardware. On lakefront homes we look for corrosion from the damp air. We explain what we find in plain language.

  4. 4

    Rekey, repair or replace

    Where a lock is sound, rekeying is often the sensible fix because it makes old keys useless without replacing hardware. Where parts are worn, corroded or outdated, we explain the replacement options and let you choose.

  5. 5

    Test everything

    We operate each lock repeatedly with the door open and closed, confirm keys work smoothly, and for smart locks check batteries, pairing and fallback key access. Gates and intercom-linked entries are tested as part of the job where we are working on them.

  6. 6

    Walk through and hand over keys

    We show you how the new setup works, hand over keys or codes, and point out any maintenance such as battery changes or lubrication so the work keeps performing.

What affects the price

  • Type of work: rekeying existing locks generally differs from replacing hardware or installing new deadbolts and smart locks.
  • Number of locks: a single door is a smaller job than rekeying every entry, garage door, side gate and mailbox on a property.
  • Hardware chosen: standard deadbolts, high-security cylinders, multipoint systems and smart locks each carry different costs.
  • Condition of existing hardware: corroded, damaged or poorly fitted locks and frames may need extra repair work before new locks perform well.
  • Time of day and urgency: after-hours or emergency calls can be priced differently than scheduled work.
  • Complexity of the system: gates, intercoms, or HOA-managed common locks can add coordination and time.

Why Westlake Village chooses us

  • Serving Greater Los Angeles and Ventura County since 1987, so we have seen the lock types that turn up in 1970s and 80s homes as well as newer custom builds.
  • Fully mobile and available 24/7, with no storefront, which means our focus is on getting to your door.
  • Owner-led: David Shar is the lead technician and stands behind the work.
  • Comfortable with smart locks, gate and intercom systems, and multipoint locks, not just standard deadbolts.
  • We favor the simplest fix that makes you secure, such as rekeying instead of replacing, when that is genuinely the right answer.
  • We explain options and the factors behind pricing before work starts, so there are no surprises.

Residential Locksmith across Westlake Village

Westlake Village straddles the Los Angeles County and Ventura County line, and its ZIP codes, including 91361, 91362 and 91359, are shared with Thousand Oaks. We work across all of them, along Lindero Canyon Road, Westlake Blvd (SR-23), Thousand Oaks Blvd and Agoura Rd, and near the US-101 corridor.

On Westlake Island, lakefront homes with private docks and gates face a particular challenge: lake air is hard on metal. A typical call might involve a front multipoint lock that has stiffened, a gate that no longer latches reliably, and a smart lock whose battery has died, all in one visit. In the First Neighborhood and Three Springs, we more often see gated estates, newer custom homes with smart locks and intercoms, and older 1970s-80s houses that benefit from fresh rekeying.

Condos and townhomes near The Promenade and The Shoppes at Westlake Village often have HOA-managed common locks and mailboxes. We can rekey common-area and mailbox locks to match HOA needs, and coordinate with property managers. Whatever the home, call (323) 997-8867 and we will come to you.
