Protect Your Hitch with Confidence
The Nelson Lock Guard is a rugged, cone-shaped shield that slips over your locking hitch pin to stop thieves in their tracks. Made of 12L14 steel with a chrome finish, designed to fit standard 1" barrel lock hitch pins, it protects trailers, bike racks, luggage carriers, and other gear from being stolen — whether you're parked at a trailhead, campground, marina, or your own driveway.
Its unique shape makes it nearly impossible to cut, pry, or tamper with — even using tools. Once installed, the Lock Guard turns your hitch pin into a true deterrent, adding tough, lightweight security without hassle.
Invented by Gary Nelson and proudly made in Sandy, Oregon, the Nelson Lock Guard is patent pending and built with durability in mind for outdoor use.
⚠️ Pro Tip: Because the Lock Guard works so well, it’s very difficult to remove without the key. We highly recommend keeping a spare key for your locking hitch pin — just in case.
