Surging Urbanization and Smart Tech Adoption Fueling Growth in U.S. Window and Door Industry

According to the latest market research study published by P&S Intelligence, the U.S. window and door market stood at USD 25.9 billion in 2024 and is poised to witness a steady CAGR of 3.8% during 2025–2032, reaching an estimated USD 34.4 billion by 2032. This growth is underpinned by rapid urbanization and industrial expansion, paired with the rising purchasing power of the population and evolving expectations of residential and commercial spaces.

The market is experiencing significant momentum due to the increasing emphasis on energy efficiency among homeowners and developers. With a focus on reducing heating and cooling costs, there is heightened demand for innovative windows and doors that support insulation and optimize indoor comfort. Furthermore, the rising adoption of smart homes and advanced security systems is fueling interest in automated doors and intelligent windows with features like controllable transparency.

Aesthetic preferences also play a critical role in shaping market demand. Contemporary design trends favor large, sleek, and frameless installations, while materials like aluminum and steel are gaining traction for their durability and ability to meet modern architectural expectations. As the definition of comfort continues to evolve, the market for high-performance, visually striking, and sustainable window and door solutions is expanding rapidly.
