Builder hardware is a form of metal hardware used in construction for security, convenience, and decoration. Building products do not construct any aspect of a building; rather, they support and manufacture it. These instruments are usually in charge of supporting fixtures like doors, windows, and cabinets. Small, basic pieces are used in this category to fasten, strengthen, and/or facilitate part movement.

Among the oldest types of hardware are nails, bolts, screws, and other fasteners. Cold rolled steel, stainless steel 304, aluminum, zinc, copper, and other materials are commonly used to manufacture builders' hardware. Well-known builders' hardware companies dominate in China, Mexico, India, and parts of the U.S. Hardware in an industrial setting refers to the physical, mechanical pieces that comprise a product or application.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Pandemic Affected the Market Growth Negatively
