I need a fridge lock to deter burglars. Are the square plates that atatch/stick to the refrigerator metal or plastic?

It didn't work to deter my teenagers, as they pulled hard and the "foam" padding ripped away from backing. That said, I had a "lock" on there that doesn't really look like a lock and they weren't paying attention and just grabber and yanked the door as usual (the door sticks, so we all used to giving it a good strong pull to open it under normal conditions). But to deter burglars?....just depends on how determined in burglars is. All they'd need to do is slip a sharp, thin knife between the metal piece and the door and cut the foam backing. Would I risk 1000s of dollars of food if I was using this on a restaurant fridge? No, I wouldn't, I'd figure out how to get some holes of some sort drilled into the fridge instead. Hope that helps! Good luck.

They're made of metal, depending on what type of cabinet doors you have may need to use a plastic spacer mount them in order for them to work properly. Mine, in fact needed the plastic spacer but it is heavy duty. I ordered the large quantity of these and put them all in my kitchen. I get to do this but I'm going to count every door in my house and put them on. We love them

See if your refrigerator magnet sticks to it. If it sticks, it is not aluminum.

I don't own this set but I do own the cuisinart set like it with plastic blade guards. They hang on our ikea magnetic knife strip on the wall without any issues. If the knife is made of steel, the thin plastic guard doesn't inhibit the magnet from attaching the knife to it at all :)

Stainless Steel is code for Brushed Aluminum. Most "Stainless Steel" appliances have aluminum fronts. Some refrigerators will have steel on the side panels. Just take a simple magnet and see where it sticks on your appliances.

plastic. Do not put on bottom shelf of dishwasher or it will warp over time.

They are plastic, but work really well. I'm an avid hunter and use this ALOT during season for jerky. The tray hold up really well, dishwasher safe, and hold quite a bit of product. Personally, as much as I use it, I will be upgrading to the stainless trays(which is a great option at the online store).

I had to walk out and check. It would not be easy. If you are going to lock a mailbox, you may as well spend the money and get a steal housing. Otherwise the lock will only keep out the honest people. Anything plastic will fall pray to a baseball bat, in which case, the lock is meaningless.

its part of the fridge - i considered taking it off, but the pad and the epoxy would make damage to the fridge door. If you have a strip to home depot - get some chain in a garden hose, and use that with a bicycle lock thru the door handle. Be ready to make it tight. - it will slip.

I don't have any idea as I mounted on the wall - and my refrigerator stainless so doesn't take magnets anyway. I would check with Blomus website

They are a hard plastic casing with metal screws. It is lightweight but very durable! Very happy with them.

I tried a refrigerator magnet and it didn't stick. I think the pan is aluminum. Still working great though.

These containers appear to be polycarbonate or PETG plastic. They use what appears to be a silicone seal. They should be safe for the refrigerator and freezer. However, I really do not see the point of using them in the freezer. These were designed to seal air from shelf-stable food. A freezer is designed to extend the life of decomposing foods. I would wrap meat or cheese in tin foil and place it in the freezer. I would use the OXO containers for pet food, snacks, candy, rice, beans, or other dry foods. We purchased these with the square buttions and then OXO changed the square buttons to the PET line and manufactured the same units with round buttons for consumers. We still use the square button models for people food. No problems on any of them yet.

The plates are metal. One is ribbed and the other is flat. They are not removable but that is no problem because they wipe clean easily with a paper towel. The unit works well and I love it. I think the company would have to answer the question about being BPA free.

I don't know, I ordered two of these locks, one for the refrigerator part and the other for the freezer, one of set of them bonded real good, the other on didn't. I should have requested an exchange, but I put it off, and now it might be too late. Don't know about a glass door though.

If you mean how are the numbers stuck to the placard I am sure the mailbox people can tell you. If you are curious as to how the placard is mounted to the mailbox, they use stainless steel screws with rubber washers. I have had mine for one year without any problems to speak of.
