A gate is the first lock anyone meets at your property, and in Willowbrook it works hard. Side gates on small post-war stucco homes, swing gates at driveways, and roll-up security gates on commercial strips along Wilmington, Central, and Imperial all take daily use, weather, and the occasional hard shove. When the latch sags, the key stops turning, or a keypad quits, the property is exposed until it is fixed.
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 shop to visit. We bring the tools and parts to your gate, look at what is actually failing, and repair it when repair makes sense instead of pushing a replacement.
Gate hardware lives outdoors, so the causes are different from a front door: rust, a gate that has dropped on its hinges, a bent strike, a worn cylinder, or a keypad with dead batteries or water damage. We also install new gate locks and latches, including keypad and smart models, for homes, multi-unit buildings, and small commercial sites.
How it works in Willowbrook
- 1
Call and describe the gate
Call (323) 997-8867 any hour and tell us what kind of gate it is: swing, sliding, pedestrian side gate, or roll-up. Tell us what the lock or latch is doing. That helps us bring the right parts.
- 2
We come to you
Because we are fully mobile, a technician drives to your Willowbrook address with tools and common latch, cylinder, and keypad parts. There is no storefront, so the work happens at your gate.
- 3
Diagnose the real problem
We check whether the issue is the lock itself or something around it, such as a sagging gate, misaligned latch and strike, rusted hinges, or a failing keypad or power source. Many gate lock complaints are alignment problems, not broken locks.
- 4
Repair, rekey, or replace
We explain the options plainly. A worn cylinder may be repaired or rekeyed, while a corroded latch may need replacing. If you want to upgrade to a keypad or smart gate lock, we can install it and set it up with you.
- 5
Test and hand over
We cycle the gate repeatedly, confirm it latches securely, and make sure keys or codes work. For keypads, we show you how to change codes and swap batteries.

What affects the price
- The type of gate: a simple pedestrian latch is a different job from a driveway swing gate or a commercial roll-up gate.
- Whether the lock can be repaired or the latch assembly must be replaced because of rust or damage.
- The hardware chosen, such as a standard keyed lock, a keypad lock, or a smart gate lock with app or remote features.
- Gate condition, including sag, bent frames, or misaligned strikes that need correcting for the lock to work properly.
- Whether power or wiring is involved, as with electronic or smart locks on powered gates.
- Time of day and urgency, since we are available 24/7 including nights and weekends.

Gate Lock Repair across Willowbrook
Willowbrook is a mix of modest 1940s and 1950s single-family homes, small apartment buildings, and public and affordable housing developments, with commercial strips running along Wilmington Avenue, Central Avenue, and Imperial Highway. On older homes in ZIP 90059, side gates and yard gates often carry aging latches that have been painted over or rusted, and many properties have added window bars and security doors that make a solid gate even more important.
Near the Willowbrook/Rosa Parks transit district, where the Metro A and C Lines meet at Imperial Highway and Wilmington Avenue, multi-unit properties often need gate locks rekeyed or repaired between tenants. Around the MLK Jr. Medical Campus area, near MLK Community Hospital and Charles R. Drew University, institutional and medical-office sites may need gate and access hardware serviced or upgraded to keypad control. We also reach customers in ZIP 90061 and 90222, and neighboring Watts and Compton.
With I-105 and I-110 close by and Alondra Boulevard crossing the area, we can reach most of Willowbrook and the surrounding communities. Call (323) 997-8867 whenever you need a gate lock looked at.
