Release time:
2025-11-24
Against the background of increasingly fierce market competition, the door and window hardware industry is undergoing a transformation from "large and comprehensive" to "specialized and refined". Leading enterprises occupy a dominant position in the general market with their technical accumulation and channel advantages, while small and medium-sized enterprises have entered segmented tracks one after another. Through precise positioning and product innovation, they have achieved differentiated development, promoting the continuous optimization of the industry competition pattern.
Fireproof hardware has become a rigid demand product for public buildings. With the continuous improvement of building fire safety standards, the market demand for fireproof door and window supporting hardware has continued to grow. Such products need to have core functions such as high temperature resistance, deformation resistance and automatic closing. In the event of a fire, they can effectively block the spread of fire and ensure the safety of personnel evacuation channels. The fireproof handles, fireproof hinges, sequencers and other products developed by enterprises in the segmented field have passed strict fire resistance tests, and can maintain normal functions for more than 60 minutes in a high temperature environment of 900℃, fully meeting the requirements of the "Code for Fire Protection Design of Buildings". At present, fireproof hardware has been widely used in office buildings, shopping malls, hospitals, schools and other public buildings, with an average annual growth rate of market scale maintaining above 15%.
The elderly-friendly hardware track accurately meets the needs of an aging society. With the deepening of population aging, elderly-friendly transformation has become an important part of people's livelihood projects, and elderly-friendly door and window hardware products have emerged as the times require. Such products focus on the usage habits and safety needs of the elderly, adopting large-size handle design for easy grip and operation by the elderly; equipped with anti-pinch devices to avoid accidents when opening and closing doors and windows; some products also integrate emergency call functions, which can quickly contact rescuers in emergency situations. In the elderly-friendly transformation projects of nursing homes and old residential areas, the supporting rate of elderly-friendly hardware has exceeded 70%, and it is gradually popularized in ordinary residential buildings. The humanized design and safety performance of the products have made them a growth highlight in the segmented market.
Customized decorative hardware meets the demand for personalized consumption. Young consumer groups have increasingly high requirements for the personalization of living spaces, promoting the rapid development of customized decorative hardware. Such products break through the single functionality of traditional hardware, perfectly combining decoration and practicality, and can be personalized designed according to the user's decoration style and color preferences. In terms of materials, the application of characteristic materials such as copper, wood and ceramics has enriched the product range; in terms of craftsmanship, relief, hollowing out, electroplating and other processes have improved the artistic value of the products. The customized service model has also extended from simple product customization to solution customization. Enterprises can provide a complete set of door and window hardware matching schemes according to user needs, meeting the decorative needs of different scenarios. In 2024, the market share of customized decorative hardware has reached 12%, and it is expected to maintain an average annual growth rate of more than 22% in the next five years.
Flexible manufacturing capacity has become the core of competition in segmented tracks. The demand in the segmented market is characterized by small batches and multiple varieties, which puts forward higher requirements for enterprises' flexible production capacity. By upgrading production equipment and optimizing production processes, enterprises have realized rapid response from product design, mold development to mass production. The minimum order quantity can be reduced to hundreds of pieces, and the delivery cycle is shortened to 7-10 days. At the same time, the strengthening of localized service capabilities enables enterprises to quickly connect with customer needs, provide value-added services such as installation guidance and after-sales maintenance, further consolidating the competitive advantage in the segmented market. In the future, with the continuous upgrading of consumer demand, new growth points will continue to emerge in segmented tracks, promoting the door and window hardware industry to develop in a diversified and high-quality direction.
