A motorized system designed for automated operation of a residential or commercial access point is under examination. This system typically consists of an electric motor, a drive mechanism (such as a chain, belt, or screw), and electronic controls to facilitate opening and closing the access point via remote control or wall-mounted switch. Its primary function is to provide convenient and secure entry and exit to a structure.
Such a system offers numerous advantages, including enhanced convenience, increased security, and improved accessibility. Historically, these devices were considered a luxury, but technological advancements and mass production have made them increasingly affordable and commonplace. This has led to a significant increase in their adoption, offering benefits such as protection from weather elements, deterring unauthorized access, and providing ease of use for individuals with mobility challenges.
