U.S. imports of base metal mountings, fittings & similar articles for buildings (HS 830241) totaled $117.8M in July 2026, traded with 67 countries.
Importers of Base Metal Mountings, Fittings & Similar Articles for Buildings paid $31.4M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 30% on $105.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataArchitectural hardware — door closers (non-automatic), door stops, knockers, kick plates, escutcheons, curtain and drapery hardware, and related building fittings — is classified here, with the US schedule subdividing extensively by article type and then by metal composition (iron/steel/aluminum/zinc versus other base metals). China is the primary supplier, with Taiwan and Mexico also significant. Section 301 tariffs apply broadly to China-origin goods in this heading, making supplier diversification to Vietnam and Taiwan an active strategy for hardware distributors and construction-product importers.

Non-automatic door closers — those requiring manual operation or that use simple spring tension without a hydraulic or pneumatic self-closing mechanism — fall under 8302413000. Automatic door closers, which use hydraulic fluid or compressed air to control closing speed and force without manual intervention, are classified under heading 8302.60. The distinction is functional and should be supported by product specifications.
Because the US schedule splits building hardware lines by material — iron/steel, aluminum, or zinc in one group versus other base metals in another — importers need supplier-provided material certifications or mill test reports confirming the primary metal. Misidentifying, for example, a zinc-alloy fitting as 'other base metal' can result in classification errors and potential penalties.
