Metal handles & finish?

Question

I have studied your Inside Handle # 40-150 - Black, and lever handle with deadbolt set # 40-177 in black.
What kind of metal are these? And, is the black color spray paint, ( enamel or latex ) powder coated or
other finish? Are any parts in the 40- 150 or 40-177 plastic?

With the 40-177, referencing the photo of the door outside online: the lever point to the left. Is this the correct
lever position if your entering the door on the right?

Thanks for posting! These handles, along with most storm door hardware, are made of die cast metal. I believe these parts specifically are powder coated. The nose on the 40-150 is made of plastic, but the rest if metal. The 40-177 can be used on either a left or right hand swing out door.
