MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS

RISING AWARENESS OF SECURITY AND PRIVACY REQUIREMENTS

In recent years, there has been a rising awareness of security and privacy requirements concerning advanced door closers and exit devices. As businesses and organizations highly depend on technology to secure their premises, there is a growing need for solutions that provide advanced security features while maintaining user privacy. Finally, there is a growing focus on user experience and accessibility in designing door closers and exit devices. These devices must be easy to use and accessible for people of all abilities while providing high security and protection against unauthorized access. Manufacturers are increasingly incorporating features such as touchless entry and adjustable settings to improve the user experience.

POLICIES SUPPORTING RESIDENTIAL BOOM

Door closers can protect in case of fire or smoke by preventing it from spreading. It can also provide enhanced security and improve the overall aesthetics of the space. Door closers can also help to maintain cooler temperatures by preventing the cooler air from venting out of the room. Door closers are increasingly finding a place in modern home décor. Moreover, the rising security requirements and demand for modern equipment drive the need for door closers. Thus, the rising number of modern residential spaces, renovations, and home improvements are the primary drivers for adopting residential door closers. Governments worldwide are implementing policies to support the construction of residential units globally to meet the growing housing demand.

SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS

INSIGHTS BY PRODUCT

The global door closer and exit devices market is dominated by the demand for door closer. The demand for door closer is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period owing to the development of integrated door closer as the installation of lightweight and elegant doors is witnessing traction. The door closer market is further segmented into door type (mechanical and electromechanical), pressure type (hydraulic and pneumatic), and operation type (overhead, floor spring, and integrated). Apart from door closer, demand for exit devices is also anticipated to witness significant growth between 2023-2028. The exit devices are segmented into type (rim, vertical rods, mortise, mullion) and design (touch bar, crossbar, and integral). With the majority of the door closer vendors operating in the exit device segment, the scope remains more optimistic for growth that can encourage the emergence of new vendors, thereby intensifying the competitive level in the market.

INSIGHT BY DOOR TYPE

In 2022, the global door closer market was dominated by mechanical, holding almost 61% share in the market. The electromechanical door operators incorporate door-closing technology with electromechanical or electrohydraulic power. These electronic operators and control systems are highly efficient and can reduce the need for frequent door opening and closing. Moreover, rapid infrastructure development and the rising number of construction projects in the developing countries of APAC are boosting the market for automatic door closer in the region.

INSIGHT BY EXIT DEVICE TYPE

In 2022, the exit device type market was dominated by rim-type exit devices for over 43% market share. This can be majorly attributed to vendors capitalizing on the growing device technology, consisting of deadbolt latching on top of the strike, thereby reducing the space between the strike and the bolt. In addition, vertical rods are also common in multi-point latching techniques alongside rim devices. The durable lock system and installation method paved the way for adopting the single door. The demand for aesthetics and architecture drives the market for concealed vertical rods.
