RFID Locks Market Outlook
The Global RFID Locks Market size was $2.92 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $9.93 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 19.40% from 2020 to 2027.
A radio frequency identification (RFID) lock, also known as an IC card lock, is an electronic lock that adopts a radio frequency card as the key. With the help of RFID technology, the RFID card can be contactless to open the lock while the old-style contactable card requires physical contact with a reader. The RFID technology is a recognition system that works with the help of electromagnetic waves to transmit signals. In addition, for home use, the RFID lock system is not used to replace the mechanical lock due to the cost and the traditional concept. Moreover, RFID door locks can be effective or ineffective in real-time operation. At the same time, the validity of the RFID card is under control as the valid period of the RFID card can also be set.
RFID technology plays a vital role in the government, residential, and other sectors. The safety and security of personal assets & information and law enforcement are the major concerns behind the adoption of RFID technology in the government sector. Several government organizations and forensic departments use RFID locks for access control of sensitive centers of information, employee authentication, and others.
In addition, commercial sectors, especially banking & finance sectors & enterprises, have adopted RFID lock technology for various applications, including PC/network access and physical access to provide strong authentication and security mechanisms. RFID locks are considered great for hotels, hospitals, dormitories, and commercial buildings. The rising adoption of RFID locks in commercial and government sectors is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the RFID locks market.
The prominent factors that drive the RFID locks market share include the high usage of RFID locks in commercial and government sectors and the high adoption of smartphones. High usage of smartphones and the penetration of its numerous features in day-to-day activity are providing lucrative opportunities for the RFID locks market growth. In addition, the user-friendly experience of mobile phones and their application is allowing companies to offer their product services right into the customer’s hand by enabling them to control the RFID door locks more proficiently & handily. This is the most prominent attraction for the customers and is expected to increase the smart lock user base, thereby supporting the growth of the RFID locks market and increasing the demand for access control systems with near-field communication (NFC).
The most common use of RFID in access control systems is in door entry systems for personnel. RFID-enabled tags are usually employed at a very basic level as identification badges for workers and provide a simple solution for any company or industry, which uses access control systems. In addition, RFID technology is popularly employed in access control systems to allow only authenticated and authorized personnel to enter secure spaces.
By Access Device
Key Cards segment is projected as one of the most lucrative segments.
RFID is a favored choice for several uses aside from office management such as supply chain inventory, parking garage gate control, and retail checkout lines. Rising demand for access control systems with NFC technology creates lucrative opportunities for the RFID locks market. However, one of the major restraints is the unaffordable prices of security solutions. On the contrary, the high development of smart homes is anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for the expansion of the RFID locks industry during the forecast period. The rising adoption of smart home architecture across the globe that includes features, such as remote access, voice control, and seamless connectivity, is further boosting the adoption of RFID locks for the residential sector. RFID locks enable advanced security features, which have become increasingly popular, owing to increasing safety & security concerns across various end users, including hospitality, government and educational institutions, residential premises, and several corporate buildings. These factors are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the RFID locks market.
The global RFID locks market is segmented into access devices, end users, and regions. Based on access devices, the market is classified into key cards, mobile phones, and wearables. Depending on the end-user, the market is fragmented into residential, hospitality, automotive, government, retail, BFSI, and others. Region-wise, the RFID locks market trends are analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, the UK, France, and the rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, South Korea, India, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Latin America, Middle East, and Africa). North America accounted for the highest market share, owing to an increase in the adoption of smart locks and a rise in the sale of RFID locks.
