ABSTRACT:
A guard plate for use with a vehicle's lock in which a circular combination of plates are strengthened by a peripheral flange which contains a second plate bonded to the first. The first plate uses a shoulder portion and ridges to creates added durability while the second plate includes a plateau to provide further strength. A snap member is used to secure the entire assembly next to the skin of the vehicle and the snap member is preferably larger than the guard plate so that added security is provided. A seal is used between the guard plate and the automobile's door's skin to weather-proof the assembly to the vehicle's door.
