What People Say About DAWGS
STEEL DOOR GUARDS
Plus, they are modular, so we can secure any size and shape, giving you the freedom to come and go without worry.
Unlike electronic doors that are susceptible to glitches and cold-weather freezing, this unique mechanical design grants you full access with no surprises. There are no hinges or handles, so the only people that can use this door are the people you give access to. And DAWGS heavy duty steel doors can’t be kicked down or broken, so once it closes behind you, you’re completely secure inside your property.
STEEL WINDOW GUARDS
DAWGS are reinforced with heavy duty steel, sporting a unique single-piece construction that doesn’t crack under pressure. All of our window guards come with aeration holes that let in fresh air and sunlight, and are easy for our teams to insulate so you can heat your property all winter long.

DAWGS Door-Only Solution
Real Estate Professionals do not always require an entire building to be secured with door and window guards, they just need to provide easy access for realtors to come and go to show their properties. Keeping track of keys and lock boxes can be a headache to manage. A lost key may mean a lost sale. With the DAWGS coded Steel Door Guard, realtors can provide easy access to realtors and prospective buyers to come and go as needed.
