The Watchdog Tailgate Lock was invented by friends Bill and Keith after
they realized the need for a tailgate theft deterrent device. Bill and Keith have each worked in the automotive industry
for over 35 years and in the past few years saw an increased volume of tailgate replacements due to theft.
The thieves seem to target both individuals and dealerships and some auto
makers have responded by including a factory lock on the tailgate. The main issue with the factory lock is the individual/dealer
must remember to lock it and it appears to be unsuccessful due to the high rate it is left unlocked. In 2006, Bill
and Keith designed and produced the first bracket that offers truck owners and dealerships peace of mind on their tailgates
once it is installed.
We take a lot of pride in our tailgate
bracket and know you will 100% satisfied with it!
