Is the inside hinge that moves the cover up made of plastic or metal?

Metal I believe. So is the foot lever to open it and the lock for the cover.

It's made of very strong plastic. The hinge operates smoothly and seems to be most sturdy. Also, the hinge is 8-inches long so it offers good support for the lid. We are very happy with this can. It's easy to use and very easy to clean. I expect this can (and hinge) to last a lot longer than the previous round chrome can we had. The hinge on it broke within a couple of years and it was a real fight to get the trash bag liner out. The simple human can, while not as pretty as the chrome, is much more functional and a darn sight less aggravating to use.

The hinge is plastic.The rod that connects to the foot pedal is metal. There may be hidden parts that are plastic.

The inside hinge is made of plastic. The only parts that appear to be metal is the foot plate, stablizing part at the front and the lid lever.

It appears to be metal or a very very heavy grade plastic. So far it has worked very well for me. I'm not disappointed in this purchase.

it is plastic that has been chromed. So far it has held up for me. I have found when tightening the plastic nut on the inside you need to use a pair of pliers or an adjustable wrench.

It is plastic and metal. The metal part isthe front part you wedge under the door. With the battery it weights more. It really works. Very accurate and loud. I urge you buy two.

Yes it is. It is a little thinner plastic than I thought it would be especially around the hinges but all in all it does it's job and definitely keeps the elements out.

the case itself is metal, the box is metal the door is metal its a metal case, but the handle and front of the case are plastic, the entire plastic faceplate comes off pretty easy to secure 5.25 drives and clean the fan

The plastic is just a cover. Inside is a hard steel/sturdy piece that does the actual locking.

The cover for the inside is a solid separate piece. It slides down and is held in place with groves on both sides and the bottom. And there is a spring loaded button on the top. My 2 large Golden Retrievers (both weigh about 85 pounds) haven't been able to get the door open if the cover is in place open from the outside or the inside in the 6 months it's been installed. You do have to put the door in place every time you want it locked. I have been really happy with this door. We put the inside cover in place at night and when we go away to keep our girls inside and to keep the wild critters out since we live in the country.

It is steel but appears to have some type of coating. Not plastic though. There is no plastic in the interior at all. It almost feels and looks like a Teflon type coating. Very thin coat that I'm sure is meant to prevent rust.

Knob on top it plastic but I did check before I bought it and made sure that the entire inside and basket assembly is made of stainless steel.

The outside cover is heavy duty plastic; I don't know what the core is made of though there surely is some metal there

Seems like a type of plastic I think...there are metal screws inside but the part that you touch is plastic.

Metal. I attached some felt to the under side so it doesn't scratch up the door.

The interior is the same plastic as the outside. The coil at the bottom is metal.

Plastic. There is a plastic frame. This frame is the basic structure of the case. The plastic is made very thin to form the hinge. On the inside there are two hard rubber inserts which hold the cards. On the outside there are two metal shells. I have not opened and closed my case very much so I don't have any life cycle data.

Not really sure what you mean... you remove the plastic part on the inside of the door and apply it to the door and replace the plastic cover. I would have a pro do this for you if you are this novice since you may have a hard time getting the cover back on or lose the pins or metal latches that hold the cover on.

Hinges are metal, underneath seat visible area is like a honeycomb or compartmentalized heavy plastic.
