ABSTRACT A stainless steel guard plate for preventing forced entry into certain automobiles by forcing a screwdriver between the door handle mechanism and the outer door panel to unlock the door is retrofitted to the automobile. The handle mechanism is removed from an opening in the door. The guard plate includes a stainless steel plate having an aperture through which an operative portion of the handle mechanism extends, with side flanges of the guard plate extending inwardly along the upper and lower edges of the guard plate aperture and through the original opening in the door panel. A first screw which is accessible through a rear end plate of the door when it is opened, passes through a hole in an inwardly extending tab of the guard plate and into a threaded hole in a tongue member of the handle mechanism. The first screw is tightened, drawing the rear portion of the handle mechanism tightly against the guard plate, pressing it tightly against the outer surface of the door panel. A second screw extending through the forward part of the handle is used to tighten the front end of the handle against the door panel.
