HS Code 8302.41 – Mountings, fittings and similar articles; of base metal, suitable for buildings
HS code 8302.41 is the 6-digit subheading for mountings, fittings and similar articles, of base metal, suitable for buildings. It is used for door handles, window latches, shelf brackets, curtain rod holders and stair rail brackets.
What HS 8302.41 covers
This category encompasses a broad range of base metal mountings, fittings, and similar articles specifically designed for use in buildings. These are essential components for construction, renovation, and interior finishing, including items like door handles, window fasteners, shelf supports, and curtain rods. Countries with active construction sectors and robust real estate markets, such as the United States, China, Germany, and the UK, are major importers. Exporters often come from nations with strong metal fabrication industries and design capabilities, including China, Germany, Italy, and Spain, which produce both functional and aesthetically pleasing architectural hardware. Key trade considerations involve material durability (e.g., stainless steel, brass, zinc alloy), finish (e.g., chrome, brushed nickel, powder-coated), compliance with building codes and safety standards, and design aesthetics to match various architectural styles. The market is influenced by construction trends, housing starts, and the demand for both new installations and replacement parts in existing structures.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
