Locking Gas Door - 2015 Sierra 1500 SLE

[BluEyeItln]

I have an angled gas door on my truck since it partly is over the wheel well.  Does anyone know of a locking gas door that fit's this type?  I have been looking everywhere and no luck.

How about this?

I tried that.  The manufacture doesn't make them for the GMC/Chevy trucks that have the curve door due to the wheel well.  I begged them to make one but, no go.

Well that sucks.  When they ask for bed size it lists a standard/ long bed option or short bed option.  You have a short bed so don't understand why they would list that as an option if it won't fit.  I think these are the same manufacturer:

What is the need? You live in a bad area and leave your truck out all the time? Why not a locking gas cap instead or a whole door?

My area isn't generally bad and I don't have a garage but, lately there have been a lot of thefts and I didn't know till I heard it on the radio this morning.  They arrested six individuals so far whom have stolen guns, ammunition and jewelry.  Locking gas caps are fine but, they can be a pain to get off from time to time.  I like how the locking door looks but, it's looking like I may be out of options.

Siphoning gas from your truck is not easy and I suspect that a determined thief would not let a locking fuel door deter  him/her.  I read that punching a hole in the tank is a common method of removing gas.  I suspect that if your thief had the tools and knowledge to take your gas from the filler stem,  opening a locked door would simply result in more damage to your truck.  I like vehicles with the interior fuel door release but the keyed only ones are truly a PITA, imo.
