I had the same concerns, especially with full body paint. Did a lot of looking and went with Bauer Bluetooth (use combo or bluetooth to lock/unlock). Unit is well made with metal and uses machine screws not sheetmetal screws. Install was very easy and is working great. Bluetooth app can be set to open the door when you get close or we can operate the lock from inside truck if raining. Happy so far and it appears battery access will be simple too.
