Aircraft doors serve as the entry and exit points for passengers on an aircraft. These doors are utilized during boarding and are strategically located at the front, middle, and rear sections of the aircraft. They play a crucial role in maintaining internal pressure and ensuring the overall safety of the aircraft. Additionally, aircraft doors are instrumental in controlling access to various compartments within the aircraft.
The primary types of doors in the realm of aircraft doors include passenger doors, cargo doors, emergency doors, service or access doors, and landing gear doors, among others. Passenger doors, specifically, are equipped with integral stairs featuring a retractable lower step and folding handrails. Aircraft types encompass narrow-body, wide-body, very large-body, and regional aircraft. Operating mechanisms include both manual and hydraulic systems.

The expansion in aircraft production is anticipated to be a significant driver for the aircraft doors market in the future. Aircraft production involves the manufacturing of vehicles capable of flight. During aircraft assembly, doors such as passenger exit doors, emergency exits, and service doors are installed, playing a vital role in maintaining the required internal pressure and ensuring aircraft safety. For instance, a report by CAPA - Centre for Aviation in November 2022 indicated that major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) such as Airbus and Boeing foresee delivering over 1000 aircraft in 2022, with plans for even greater production in 2023. The combined deliveries by both OEMs totaled 898 aircraft in 2021 and 766 commercial aircraft during the first three quarters of 2022. Hence, the surge in aircraft production is a key factor driving the aircraft doors market.
The anticipated growth in the commercial aviation industry is expected to significantly contribute to the expansion of the aircraft doors market. Commercial aviation involves the use of aircraft for transporting passengers or cargo, excluding military purposes. In this industry, aircraft doors play a crucial role in ensuring passenger safety, operational efficiency, and overall functionality. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the global commercial aviation industry has exhibited steady growth. In 2021, the industry generated $509 billion in revenue, marking a 32.3% increase from the previous year. Therefore, the continual growth in the commercial aviation sector is poised to drive the demand for aircraft doors.
Technological advancements stand out as pivotal trends gaining momentum in the aircraft doors market. Major companies within this market are actively developing advanced technologies to maintain their competitive edge. For instance, in April 2021, All Nippon Airways Co., Ltd., a Japan-based airline, collaborated with JAMCO Corporation to introduce the world's first hands-free door, simplifying access to aircraft lavatories. This innovative door design allows passengers to unlock it using their elbows, featuring a sizeable inner door locking knob and an additional handle, enhancing convenience and hygiene for travelers.
