In Latin America and Indonesia doors $ sales are 50% more windows $ sales. Why?

Question

Globally, windows dollar sales are almost equal to doors $ sales. However, in Latin America and Indonesia, the sales of doors measured in dollars are more than 50% higher than the sales of windows.

Does somebody have a theory for this pattern?

Answer 1

Maybe it's because much of Latin American and all of Indonesia are tropical, and unless you have air conditioning, windows don't need double or triple glazing. As a result, the windows are less expensive.
