Is the stainless steel door magnetic?

You probably did not read my feedback. I never received the thing, because the on-line Merchant had lied about it having been shipped. My advice is that if you are buying something from a "Amazon marketplace" from NYC, Miami, NJ assume that they are lying. You will have bad experience (usually out of stock). The West coast people are better since they actually receive most of the stuff from Pacific where things are usually manufactured, and they have not lost all their honesty. Even Midwest and Southwest, including Texas are largely honest. This is result of a clustering problem I ran, and data does not lie. Of course there are always exceptions.

An easy way to tell if it's REAL stainless steel is to see if it's magnetic. Good stainless is NOT magnetic. There are some variations of SS that are slightly magnetic, but if you can pick it up with a magnet, it's not stainless. Sometimes they advertise as, "Stainless Finish." That is usually not SS, just made to look like it. Of course, there are always exceptions.

Stainless Steel is not magnetic - its a good test when things claim to be stainless :)

No, it's not magnetic. It's metal. The magnets you stick to it are magnetic. If the locker was magnetic, it would be scary all the tools flying towards it in my garage.

If you mean do magnets stick to the door, yes. If you mean is the closure on the door magnetic, I can't tell, but it does close and seal very nicely.

Sorry, but mine is NOT magnetic. It's just the flap folding over into a flat loop on the back.

yes, it is magnetized. However, it didn't stick very well on my dishwasher.

i know it has some plastic on it, there could be some stainless steel, also. a magnetwill not attract to it. i am sorry i cannot be more specific.

It is only magnetic on the latch side and the top. The hinge side is a compression seal. A magnetic seal on the hinge side will not work as the door slides into this seal which a magnetic seal would prevent. I've found this product to be quite satisfactory, far better than the original compression seal.

absolutely , true stainless is non-magnetic and this one is high quality and its huge, perfect for brewing or whipping up stew for an army base.

Well it's stainless steal but, the proper response would be to state that it has magnetic properties would depend. Stainless steel is not a pure magnetic metal, however, magnetic stainless steel does exist to provide enough attraction to interact with magnets, and in some cases to allow small metal items to adhere to the stainless steel surface. I would say for this product your chance would be low.

I wanted to make a note that a magnet does not always prove that it is stainless steel. It depends on what is in the steel. There are some stainless steel that a magnet will still not be magnetized to.

I think so. The door is really light. Once it has been released by the magnet, it moves quite freely.

There aren't magnets on the top to attach to a metal door. The only magnets are in the middle where you walk through. If you don't attach the sides to a fixed wooden door then it will just come undone.

Dear J. Field, According to the staff at LG, stainless steel is not a magnetic alloy and typically will not work with magnets unless there is a ferrous layer behind the stainless steel giving it the appearance of being magnetic. They recommend their Titanium, Smooth Black and Smooth White finishes for magnets.

The magnetic seal is on the top and on the latch side. The hinge side is a compression seal and not magnetic.

Magnet is on the lower left hand corner, hinge is on the rt side. Door opens from left. However you could move the magnet and switch it if you desired.
