Door Edge Guard Width Guide

A door edge guard that is too narrow will not grip a thick lip and will slip off. This width guide matches guard profiles to door lip thickness so the strip stays put for years instead of weeks.

Match lip to profile

Thin lips (1.5-3mm) suit blade or narrow U-channel; thick lips (3-5mm) need wide U-channel.

When unsure, size up

A slightly wide U-channel still grips; a narrow one never will.

Frequently Asked Questions

Usually yes; most SUVs need the wide profile.
