Wood Door EPDs in the United States, a data guide
The 2026 snapshot for wood and architectural wood doors in the United States, built from the public registry most specifiers rely on. Use this to see who has EPDs today, which program operators and PCRs dominate, and how to time your next declaration so it lands where the market is heading, not where it was.
The state of play, in one view
Across the last five years, the category shows 24 current EPDs from 6 manufacturers, published through 4 program operators and grounded in 4 distinct PCRs. The most recent issue arrived on Oct 12, 2025, for JELD‑WEN under EPD Hub using “EPD Hub Core PCR version 1.1, 5 Dec 2023,” with validity to Oct 11, 2030. That cadence tells a clear story of consolidation around a few highly active players.
Who is publishing, and how much
Manufacturer activity is concentrated but competitive. JELD‑WEN leads with 7 EPDs. Oregon Door follows with 5. Oshkosh Door Company shows 4. Lynden Door and VT Industries each contribute 3. Masonite Architectural adds 2. For teams planning a first EPD, this set is the shortlist you will be compared against on submittals.
Program operators buyers already recognize
Four operators carry current wood door EPDs in the United States. UL lists 9 EPDs across 2 manufacturers, SCS Global Services lists 5 across 2, EPD Hub lists 7 across a single manufacturer, and NSF International lists 3 across one. That mix means you can publish where your competitors sit for easy like‑for‑like comparison, or pick an operator used by multiple brands to meet specifier familiarity. We are operator‑agnostic on publishing and focus on speed, ease, and quality of the LCA and dossier.
PCRs you will actually pick
PCR choice sets the rules of the game. Interior Architectural Wood Door Leaves dominates the category with 16 EPDs and latest expiry on Feb 1, 2029. EPD Hub Core PCR version 1.1 accounts for 6 EPDs with latest expiry on Oct 11, 2030. EN 17213:2020 shows 1 EPD expiring Dec 1, 2029. ISO 21930:2017 appears once with expiry on Feb 15, 2027. If you want fast market comparability, align with the PCR most peers use, then factor renewal timing so your next version lands on an updated reference without extra rework.

Issuance trend, 2021 to 2025
The release curve matters for sales planning and submittal readiness. After a muted start the category spiked in 2024.
| Year | EPDs issued |
|---|---|
| 2021 | 3 |
| 2022 | 5 |
| 2023 | 0 |
| 2024 | 13 |
| 2025 | 3 |
Zero issues in 2023 followed by a surge in 2024 suggests pent‑up demand and project teams preparing for tighter owner requirements. The smaller 2025 count could reflect normal cycles, or simply registry backlog later in the year. See the note at the end on late‑2025 loading.
Expiry watch, so you do not scramble
Renewal waves are visible right now. In 2026, 3 EPDs expire, all under Interior Architectural Wood Door Leaves on Mar 8. In 2027, 5 EPDs are due, including 1 under ISO 21930:2017 on Feb 15 and 4 more under Interior Architectural Wood Door Leaves between Feb 15 and Aug 16. Nothing falls in 2028. A large block, 13 EPDs, lands in 2029, split across Interior Architectural Wood Door Leaves on Feb 1, EN 17213:2020 on Dec 1, and EPD Hub Core PCR version 1.1 between Dec 1 and Dec 8. A final group of 3 arrives in 2030, all EPD Hub Core PCR version 1.1 between Jun 6 and Oct 11. If your renewals target 2029, reserve verification capacity early, since many peers will be in line at the same time.
How often do teams use an EPD service provider
This category leans heavily on third‑party help. Nineteen of the 24 current EPDs, about 79 percent, were developed by an external EPD consultant or service provider. If speed and completeness matter, an experienced partner like Parq can shorten the path by taking on data wrangling and cross‑plant coordination your own team would otherwise have to absorb. Less time chasing meters, more time building product, that is the trade most teams prefer to recieve.
The latest issue worth noting
The newest publication in the dataset arrived on Oct 12, 2025. It was issued for JELD‑WEN through EPD Hub under the operator’s Core PCR version 1.1 and is valid until Oct 11, 2030. If you are lining up a mid‑2026 to early‑2027 release, this reference is current and widely visible to specifiers.
Notably absent names buyers may search
As of Jan 17, 2026, we could not locate current wood door EPDs in the public registry under the domains simpsondoor.com, roguevalleydoor.com, and stevesdoors.com. We also see past activity for TruStile under trustile.com with no current EPDs visible. If any of these organizations have recently published under a different brand entity or PCR family, they may appear after registry processing.
Practical next steps if you plan to publish
Pick the PCR your competitors rely on unless you have a strong reason to diverge, since that comparison makes life easier for GCs and architects reviewing submittals. Choose a program operator your channel already knows, or one that supports your long‑term portfolio plan across other divisions. Lock a reference year now, confirm metering and mass‑balance coverage at the plant, and set a publication window that avoids the 2029 renewal crowd. If you want help triaging the best fit PCR against your product scope, we are happy to do that work.
One more thing before you go
This guide uses the global public registry most specifiers consult. Because of load delays, some EPDs from the second half of 2025 may not yet be reflected. If you want the underlying, up‑to‑date dataset for this article, connect with me on LinkedIn and send a quick note. I am also happy to hop on a brief call at no cost to help you pick the best fit PCR and operator based on your product and competitive set.
