Front Door Reinforcement Protection from Burglar Kick-ins

14 gauge Stainless Steel wrap-around door reinforcement plate.

Custom flush-mounted Installation. Not a thin overlay

CNC Laser cut holes in edge of Door Wrap Plate
for Dead Bolt Lock
and Door Knob Striker

Zero tolerance around latches and deadbolts
 for distributing the force of an attack
 away from the weakest area
of the door.  

Drilling huge 2 1/8" diameter holes
for your lock hardware
 compromises the strength
 of a slab door

My Door plates turn this area into
 the strongest part of the door

Door shown in transparent Glass

Drilling BIG holes through your door weakens the door

The door jamb is a joke made of 3/4" thick wood with a 1inch diameter hole in it leaves 1/2inch of wood holding your deadbolt in place. The wood holding your door closed is no thicker than 2 pencils.

My Jamb plates are made from 14 gauge Stainless Steel
 I use 4inch long screws that go past the jamb and into the 2x4 stud
