(door) beltline
Explanation:
Indicates the "dividing line" between the lower part of the door (body panel) and the door window frame (glass area). Note that anything referred to as "on" the beltline is usually just below or level with the beltline (except perhaps for trim strips or similar fitted "on top").
Sometimes, the alternative term "(door) waistline" is used.

Sorry, my example sentence has garbage at the end.
It should be "A door beltline reinforcement is fitted for increased torsional resistance".
