Gate openers add to this convenience - enabling easy control of gates for instances such as arrival, departure, and visitor access control. FutureIoT, a Singapore-based IoT magazine, states that in 2022, over 54% of US homes own at least one smart home gadget. This uptake is due to the gadget's user-friendliness, convenience, and enhanced security they provide. The UK, Germany, and France have also witnessed increased adoption of smart homes at 50%, 40%, and 38% respectively. Hence, the rising preference for home automation is anticipated to catalyze the expansion of the gate opener market.
