An airplane door sill protector is provided. The sill protector is used to fit to a sill and fuselage of an airplane to prevent damage to the fuselage. The sill protector includes an elongated body having a base joined with a lip that forms a channel to receive the fuselage of the airplane door. A first and second curved section are positioned at opposing ends of the elongated body, such that each curved section arches away from a longitudinal axis and can accommodate a curved exterior edge of the airplane fuselage. The curved sections correspond to the curve of the fuselage and, in some embodiments, are extendable to fit openings of various sizes.
