Last updated: April 2026 dataAutomatic door closures, hat racks, coat pegs, and general-purpose brackets of base metal form a catch-all grouping for hardware articles not captured by the vehicle, building, or furniture fittings headings. Automatic door closures in particular are subject to building-code specifications in commercial construction, and importers must ensure products meet applicable ANSI/BHMA standards for the US market. The breadth of this residual category means classification disputes are relatively common, and product-specific rulings from CBP can provide binding guidance.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. Automatic door closures used in commercial buildings typically must comply with ANSI/BHMA A156.4 performance standards and may need to meet ADA accessibility requirements. Importers should confirm that products are tested and certified to applicable standards before distribution, as non-compliant hardware can be rejected by building inspectors or specifiers.
Because this heading is a residual catch-all, CBP applies the General Rules of Interpretation to determine whether an article is more specifically provided for elsewhere. Importers with ambiguous products can request a binding ruling from CBP before importation, which provides legal certainty on the applicable classification and duty rate.
