## Common ground
All options describe single doors made from different primary materials.
## Options at a glance
**3925.20 – Made of plastic material**
- **Defining trait:** Constructed primarily from synthetic polymers (e.g., PVC, polyethylene).
- **Typical examples:** PVC patio doors, plastic storm doors, lightweight indoor partitions.
- **Best fit when:** The door is lightweight, weather-resistant, and used in low-security or non-load-bearing applications.
**4418.1X,4418.2X – Made of wood**
- **Defining trait:** Crafted from natural wood (e.g., pine, oak, hardwood), often with visible grain.
- **Typical examples:** Solid wooden front doors, interior panel doors, custom-built timber doors.
- **Best fit when:** Aesthetic appeal, natural look, or traditional craftsmanship is prioritized.
**7308.30 – Made of iron or steel**
- **Defining trait:** Constructed from ferrous metals, typically for high strength and security.
- **Typical examples:** Security doors, fire doors, industrial access doors.
- **Best fit when:** Durability, resistance to forced entry, or fire protection is required.
**7610.10 – Made of aluminium**
- **Defining trait:** Fabricated from lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys.
- **Typical examples:** Sliding glass doors, modern exterior doors, balcony access doors.
- **Best fit when:** Longevity, low maintenance, and modern design are key.
## Key differences
| Feature | Plastic | Wood | Iron/Steel | Aluminium |
|------------------|---------------|--------------|---------------|---------------|
| Weight | Light | Medium-heavy | Heavy | Light |
| Durability | Moderate | Moderate | High | Very high |
| Corrosion resistance | High | Low (needs treatment) | Low (rusts) | Very high |
| Aesthetic | Modern, uniform | Natural grain | Industrial, rugged | Sleek, modern |
## How to choose
- Is the door primarily made of plastic? → 3925.20
- Is it made of natural wood with visible grain? → 4418.1X,4418.2X
- Is it heavy and built for security or fire resistance? → 7308.30
- Is it lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and modern in design? → 7610.10
## Overlaps & pitfalls
A door may combine materials (e.g., wooden frame with aluminum cladding), but the **primary structural material** determines the HS Code. If unclear, prioritize the dominant material by weight or visible construction. No option is inherently more correct—choose based on the main material used
