China Aluminum Extrusions: Pocket Door Frame Parts Subject to AD/CV Duties

Pocket door tracks imported by Five Lakes Trading are subject to antidumping and countervailing duties on aluminum extrusions from China, said the Commerce Department in a scope ruling issued July 22. The pocket door tracks are made of 6063 aluminum alloy, which is covered by the scope of duties, and are only drilled and cut to length, which are covered fabrication operations, said Commerce. Also, the pocket door tracks are parts of door frames, which are specifically identified in the language of the scope. Five Lakes “submitted no argument or rationale as to why it believes pocket door tracks are not subject merchandise,” said Commerce.
