IS THE BELINE LOCK BODY MADE OF REAL STAINLESS STEEL?
YES. ABSOLUTELY YES.
Beline's lock body, has two layers, one stainless steel layer and one mixed metal layer below the stainless steel layer. If you are performing a stainless steel test with a magnet, you must uncap the top stainless steel layer before testing the stainless steel with a magnet. The purpose of the first base layer is to provide added protection to the system. This is a dual layer lock.

TOP RATED QUESTION TO A LOCK SUPPLIER
BeLine feels this is an important question you should ask any supplier. Does the vendor have any past or pending lawsuits filed against them in the past 10 years?
In all fairness we will answer our own question. BeLine does not have any past or pending lawsuits.
SUSPICIOUS PRICE
How much do you want to spend? There is an enormous selection of lock models in existence today as a result of advances in technology and manufacturing. If you want the best, expect a high price tag from a reputable dealer. If you are looking for a moderate lock, expect a reasonable price. The point here is for you as the buyer to be aware of items that are too good to be true. As the old saying goes, "If it's too good to be true, it is!" The BeLine lock is a Mid Grade lock. It is designed to be a good long lasting lock at an affordable price. Also, it is designed to save the customer from buying high priced components later on. The BeLine lock is guaranteed to be within 15% of the original purchase price shown on your invoice. Simply put, if you need a complete lock 5 years later, you won't get a rediculus price hike.
REFERENCES AND WEBSITE
Independent research is the best. This will give you non bias feedback from people. Vendors can provide a list of references but that is not always the best way to go. Perform a search on the name of the lock vendor. Also, review the Vendor's website. Do they have support information and product information to help you in the future? A good website will be very informative.
