Residential Doors Market Highlights
1. Residential door demand grew steadily 2015-2019 with value growth rising 21% driven by a high level of new building work and RMI.
This is underpinned by good consumer confidence levels as well as attractive product developments and features including:
- Thermal efficiency improvements
- Better security
- Colour and texture enhancement
- Continuing high demand for bi-folds and composite doors
2. The effects of the Covid-19 pandemic from early 2020 led to lockdowns and Tier restrictions that severely depressed the UK economy and in turn led to a sharp decline in the residential door market for that year.
3. Residential construction generally able to work through the pandemic helped maintain a lower level of demand for doors.
Combined with replacement demand from homeowners and social housing, this tempered by delays in product availability and Covid-19 restrictions on installations.
4. Suppliers further developed their digital platforms to ease product availability bottlenecks but some major suppliers already under pressure in a mature over-supplied market were pushed further by the economic effects of the pandemic leading to a number falling into administration and liquidation 2019-2020.
5. The supply structure for residential doors remains complex and fragmented. However, it is increasingly competitive, with a positive market outlook and steady growth anticipated from 2021 to 2025.
This positive trend is supported by the gradual ending of the pandemic and a positive conclusion to Brexit negotiations.
Additionally, trade agreements are expected to have a positive impact on improved housing investments and consumer confidence.
