Customers are satisfied with the security provided by the latch guard. They mention that it is easy to install, provides the security it says it will, and is perfect for door security. The latch guard is a good deterrent for would-be burglars looking for a quick job, and makes them feel safer.

Customers are mixed about the security screws. Some mention that they are special screws that cannot be removed easily. However, others say that they're not security screws, and are open for anyone to screw off.

"...These should be used, as it will be impossible to remove the security screws if you mis-align and want to start over..." Read more

"...Its very thick and sturdy metal, and the screws are indeed un-screwable...." Read more

"...It is definitely a good deterrent. My purchase did not come with screws...." Read more

"...The screws are one-way as to prevent someone from simply unscrewing them...." Read more

When I tell people to "stay out of my room", I mean just that. And now, no matter how much prying anyone does, it's not happening! Perfect solution and easy to install.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, cost effective security upgrade for in-swinging doors.
Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2018
This door guard is useful for in-swinging doors by providing an extra layer of protection against prying attempts between the frame/latch and door locking mechanism (think crowbar, flat head screwdriver, credit card or another similar tool being used to unlock door). It comes with 4 tapered Phillips head screwed for the part that attaches to the door, and 4 security screws for attaching the other part to the frame. There are also 2 short Phillips head screws used for temporarily aligning the frame piece before using the security screws. These should be used, as it will be impossible to remove the security screws if you mis-align and want to start over (at least, without special bits and/or destroying the security screws in the process). With the right tools (Phillips head bit and flat head bit, along with an impact driver or drill), installation takes 5 minutes. This only comes in gray and I wanted a better match to my brown door and frame, so I used Rustoleum spray paint (1 coat gray primer, 2 coats flat protective enamel) to achieve a near color match. The end result greatly enhances our security without detracting from the appearance.

A few thoughts:
You want the Phillips head screws in the door piece to be covered by the piece attached to the frame when the door is closed. This prevents anyone from simply screwing them out from the door.
Make sure the guard does not interfere with the closing of the door. You do not need to have the frame piece hit the door piece when the door is shut normally. The door should close properly, with enough pressure being exerted on the weather stripping to create a seal from the outside.
This comes with no directions. But if you have the correct bits, tools, and mark your holes correctly, it's very easy to install. Again, do not put the security screws in until you are sure everything lines up and closes correctly. Screw in the shorter Phillips screws all the way to test. Then put in 2 security screws, then remove the test screws and put in the final 2 security screws. Piece of cake.
