ABSTRACT:
A protective door guard beam for motor vehicles is disclosed, comprised of interfit beam segments, each welded to a respective door lock or hinge flange. The beam segments allow limited telescoping of the beam segments to avoid gross deformation of the door flanges during impact to prevent disengagement of the door lock. An interlock comes into engagement as the beam is deformed sufficiently to approach the inside of the door.
