Abstract
An emergency temporary door cover for covering a broken glass door pane until the broken glass can be replaced, comprising a cover sheet which is foldable for easy storage when not in use, a hook extending from the top of the sheet for suspending the sheet from the top of the door, upper and lower straps extending from the sides of the sheet, and bendable wire supported by the straps and adapted to take a set, so that the installer may hook the sheet to the top of the door and bend the wire around the side edges of the door to hold the cover sheet in place, and may do so while standing in front of the door. Then the installer walks to the rear of the door while the hook and side wires hold the cover in place, and ties the straps across the rear of the door to secure the cover to the door until the broken pane can be replaced.
