Slide Sentinel Mouse Guard
$19.99
Protect Your Rig from Unwanted Guests
Every rack-and-pinion-style slide-out on an RV leaves a wide opening underneath—basically an open invitation for mice to crawl right in. Once inside, they can easily make their way into your RV through plumbing gaps and hidden access points.
The Slide Sentinel is your first line of defense. Designed specifically to block that open area without interfering with the slide-out’s movement, it keeps rodents out and peace of mind in.
Size: This fits a 2″ pushrod diameter. Smaller sizes coming soon!
Only 1 needed per slide-out.
Now made of spring steel.
Why You Need the Slide Sentinel
-
Rodent Defense – Stops mice from sneaking into the underbelly of your RV through slide-out openings.
-
Smart Design – Works with your slide-out’s push rod without compromising movement or function.
-
Vacation Saver – Prevents damage, odors, and surprise guests during your next trip.
Effortless Installation
Forget complex tools or tricky adjustments. The Slide Sentinel’s patent-pending design makes it a breeze to install:
- Open the Slide Sentinel.
- Place it around the slide-out push rod.
- Slide it toward the RV frame until the Strong built-in magnets snap it into place.
The guard stays secure while still allowing side-to-side movement with your slide-out—no extra adjustments needed.
Keep Pests Out. Keep Adventure In.
Don’t let a mouse ruin your trip. Let the Slide Sentinel protect your RV—and your vacation.

I ordered one, but NO communication from the company. I have no idea when or if it’ll ship or if my order was received.

Not made for all RV’s
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Correct, they are only made for 2″ diameter push rod
John (verified owner) –
Broke first time retracting slide. I called the next day and was informed some customers had the problem. They assured me a redesign is in progress and I will get the replacement when that design is complete. Today is 22May 25 and if I don’t receive the new design in 14 days I’ll request a refund.
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey John, sorry it took us a bit to redesign them. All of our customers received new versions made of steel.
Greg H. (verified owner) –
Very easy to install. Closes the hole up perfectly to keep the rodents out. Highly recommended to anyone who has an RV with slides
Dwayne R (verified owner) –
It broke in two as I was placing it on the Rv
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Dwayne, we had some issues with the plastic versions. All of our customers have now received the steel version.

A+

I had a squirrel get into our RV through the opening on the ram. I tried to tape it up with duct tape. The squirrel ate it’s way through. These are very easy to install and will be very hard to chew through.
Kevin (verified owner) –
Great concept but they break as soon as you bring the slideout in. If you have a rubberized/flexible version I would be interested
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Kevin, they are now made out of steel. You should have received the new version by now.
Scott Ridout (verified owner) –
Both of Mine snapped when I put my
Slide in. My slides had a bell shaped device that’s suppose to
Cover the holes When closed. I never realized it was there, never had a reason to check it before I found the broken pieces. It’s a nice design but apparently does not work with my particular slides.
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Scott, yes, we had problems with the original plastic versions. All the new ones are now made of steel. Additionally, you should have received a new steel version that we sent out to all of our existing customers.
Steve Grimes (verified owner) –
Works great easy to install
Thomas Della Penna (verified owner) –
These did not fit my camper. My cylinder is too close for them to fit over the hole on braces.
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Thomas, they should fit all 2″ pushrods. The hydraulic rods that are smaller won’t work with them. However, we are working on new models for the hydraulic slides. Feel free to reach out for help getting a return started.
Richard (verified owner) –
They are to big for my redwood 5 th wheel slides don’t fit my cylinders
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Richard, these are for the 2″ push rods. Smaller ones are coming soon.
David J. (verified owner) –
Thank you for developing this product. I no longer need to crawl under the slide and place steel wool to plug the opening where mice use this entrance as a runway. So simple to install and extremely effective
Michael (verified owner) –
Perfect.. strong magnets keep critters out
Robert H. (verified owner) –
It doesn’t fit either slide on my Brinkley Z 3610. The hydraulic shaft is too close to the other support rail.
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Robert, they should fit all 2″ pushrods. The hydraulic rods that are smaller won’t work with them. However, we are working on new models for the hydraulic slides. Feel free to reach out for help getting a return started.
Peter F. (verified owner) –
Wow. This is the real deal. So much easier than always packing in steel wool. Perfect fit. Thank you for simplifying my rv setup
Lane Delker (verified owner) –
This does not work on my RV. The gear pack drive mechanism is too close to the actuator opening. This product won\’t fit on my RV without modification. But, in the process of trying to attach this guard, the magnets starting popping out of their mounting spots. I love the concept. Unfortunately, I believe there needs to be some additional research and adjustments before it works for me. Now I am stuck with a product I can’t use. (2022 Keystone Montana 3231CK)
Oxbow Team (store manager) –
Hey Lane, sorry it didn’t work for you. Feel free to reach out to get a return started. It’s the hydraulic slides that these don’t work on. However, we are working on a solution for those as well.
Tim Hall (verified owner) –
Oxbow RV stands behind their product and I received outstanding support and communication. I received the latest revision guards today and they are now a perfect solution.
Bear –
Just great that they stand behind their products. Got my new, steel, mouse guard in the mail today!
John Compani (verified owner) –
Redesigned metal version is great! I appreciate that this company stands behind its product
Jay Keopf –
I originally ordered these when they came out earlier this year. Great concept, but first generation had some issues, as the company has acknowledged. Just received the redesigned product today and I am very impressed, not just with the stainless steel redesign, but with how the company has stood behind it and taken care of its customers. Timing of the new product is perfect. I am winterizing now and about to put it up for the winter. I’ll be sharing and recommending to others. Thank you!

Great design great materials
Great fit and easy to install
Very pleased 👍

It hasn’t arrived yet. USPS is trying to find out where it is in their system. It isn’t your fault that they can’t find it. I have contacted USPS and they are escalating their search for it I hope. The rating doesn’t mean anything yet because USPS hasn’t delivered it yet.
Al Murphy (verified owner) –
Love them
Michael L. (verified owner) –
I ordered two more
Richard (verified owner) –
Great product works as advertised
Fred (verified owner) –
Easy to install and covers the gap exactly as advertised. Also, I had provided an incomplete shipping address and they took care of it and immediately shipped another one – great customer service.
Doug Wright (verified owner) –
Very easy to install and covers the opening well.
John Taylor (verified owner) –
I have only had this product a couple weeks. It was pretty easy to install. I understand the original was made out of some kind of plastic, but this is spring steel, and the magnets seem strong. I see this as very beneficial in covering the large hole in the frame.
Linda W. (verified owner) –
FITS PERFECTLY! It LARGELY reduces the space around the rack-and-pinion! I am a lady lol… I put it on in about 2 minutes. My brother sent me your website product so I thought I would give it a try. I received it about 3 weeks ago and just put it on today. THANKS!
Robert Shaffer (verified owner) –
I ordered two and only received one. Please expedite the other one to complete my order!!
Jim C. (verified owner) –
I tried the mouse guard on my Forest River Cardinal and my Forest River Riverstone. It was too wide on one side to fit correctly. If the footprint was more narrow and the hole a smaller diameter, I think it would function properly. Do you make different sizes?
Ronald Garner (verified owner) –
This thing is so simple but yet so awesome!!!! It eliminates an entry point!
Randy Shumaker (verified owner) –
My order never reached me. I have tried to contact you several times with no response. I would not buy from you again
Michael Lepera (verified owner) –
I believe making it out of metal was a plus. It’s easy to install and I think it’s the best thing since sliced bread.
Edwin M. (verified owner) –
Did not fit due to interference with the RV slide rack so I had to cut one side. Requested help to determine whether the magnet side should be against the frame or the other side but received no response. Also tried calling and got no answer.
Dennis W. (verified owner) –
Good fit and finish l9ve them.
Rodney (verified owner) –
Hole too big, returned.
Henry Rust (verified owner) –
Well the magnets are not what’s advertised and it has rivets in the middle of the pea sized one that makes it look really weak. It should fit some RVs but not a BRINKLEY Model G3950 or Z models either so it is a good concept and im sure with some more tweaking it will more than likely work. I sent mine back for a refund not used. When they have the bugs worked out I will probably purchase it again. Henry Rust G3950.
