door dings dont scare me anymore




door dings don't scare me anymore





steps work when parked only ,
blocking doors from door dings and hindering theft. If someone is inside they will come down automatically by pulling the inside door handle.

I know exactly what you are saying. That was the motivation for me to make these. I'm happy to have them on my f150.

Or lift your truck. Acts the same as your custom work, which is cool. How does this prevent thief?

The steps are in the way of the doors opening. And when they are up two full grown men cannot pull them down. But theft can happen to any vehicle, this just makes it harder.

I can see it helping under some very narrow circumstances, but it aint gonna stop doors from getting dinged, especially from the most common cause, another door.

Still, I like the design. Anything that makes it more difficult for a thief to enter your vehicle is a huge plus in my book. Plus, they look beefy!
