Electronic Access Control System Manufacturing in the US industry analysis

The Electronic Access Control System Manufacturing industry produces smart cards, fingerprint scanners, biometric systems, and other access control systems, including keypads. The industry has recently been affected by volatile downstream markets, the effects of import penetration and the outbreak of the pandemic. As a result, industry revenue has been declining at an annualized rate of 4.4% over the past five years and is expected to reach $3.7 billion in 2023, although this conceals significant year-to-year volatility. Industry profit has similarly fallen due to lower demand and high competition from foreign manufacturers, with profitability overall waning to 5.6%. Industry revenue is poised to undergo course correction in 2023, inclining 1.2% as macroeconomic conditions improve.The COVID-19 pandemic significantly reduced demand for industry products through lower corporate profit, decreased international trade and a decline in the size of the commercial market. With significant budget constraints, organizations were pressured to justify the benefits of upgrading to new systems. The industry also experienced a plummet in demand from foreign clients. Exports were significantly depressed amid the pandemic. Domestically, industry enterprises experienced declining demand due to reduced nonresidential construction. At the same time, the pandemic accelerated some technology trends, such as the adoption of mobile access and contactless access systems, supporting the industry to some extent.Looking ahead, commercial and government customers are both slated to invest more in the security market. Mounting levels of corporate profit will likely in turn result in a recovery in the the value of nonresidential construction. Restored commercial markets along with an expansion of local and state government spending is expected to benefit industry enterprises. A slowdown in import consumption, as a result of increased trade tensions between the US and China, should help bolster domestic demand for industry products and drive future growth. Manufacturers are poised to increasingly invest in biometric technology due to the higher security and larger profit potential of biometric access control systems. Industry revenue is projected to climb at an annualized rate of 1.2% to $3.9 billion over the five years to 2028, as profit stabilizes at 5.5%.

Trends and Insights

  • The pandemic siphoned demand from commercial markets due to office vacancies and work stoppages depleting new private nonresidential construction. While growth in use of electronic access control systems in private residential markets and government grants helped partially shield the industry from ruin, the loss of demand from the industry's largest market was significant.
  • Commercial markets were depleted by pandemic-induced closures. As commercial markets make up a significant portion of industry revenue, this loss was in part offset by a growing adoption of electronic access control systems in private residences.
  • Establishments in the industry are typically located near large populations due to the presence of commercial and residential customers. Moreover, the industry's focus on research and development also means that manufacturers are more likely to set up operations in tech hubs.
  • Growing external competition from low-cost imports continues to threaten domestic markets. This dynamic has led to intensified price competition even between domestic manufacturers.
