I had been running these for a couple of years, https://github.com/NorthernMan54/homebridge-HTTP-IRBlaster and needed a few more transmitters for a friend so decided to try a new approach with the CC1101

Ismartgate with gate strike and keypad
The only thing I could think of is using something like a Shelly Plus 1 in HomeKit (firmware/Homebridge paired to a strike of the appropriate voltage.

Outdoor LED strips
You could use a generic LED strip and a Shelly RGBW2 flashed with shelly-homekit or use it without flashing through homebridge-shelly

DIN rail relais
They’re not HomeKit compatible by default (nothing DIN rail mounted will be) but could potentially be supported using Homebridge depending on which relay you go with.

Is there any sort of in-wall switch (like this Meross one) available in the US?

2 gang dimmer (UK)
Yup! This would be my recommendation. A Shelly 2.5 if you want to add two independent circuits to HomeKit. Not native, but works fantastic! The Shelly can be added to HomeKit via a Homebridge plugin or (my personal favorite) Mongoose HomeKit firmware. Plus you can still use your normal-looking wall switches!

New construction home. Designing backyard. Any HomeKit-compatible controllers to consider?
Either a Shelly 1, 1PM, or 2.5 depending on if you just want on/off, power monitoring, or need a dual channel option. Can be integrated to HomeKit via Homebridge or my favorite, Mongoose Shelly HomeKit.

Towel Rail Panel Cover
And then as CautiousAd said either Mongoose HomeKit Firmware (my personal favorite) or Shelly Homebridge will get you up and running 👍🏼

How to keep my dumb switches and expose them to HomeKit
I can't recommend Shelly enough, the Shelly 1L is a no-neutral relay that can go in behind your switches and tends to be pretty solid. You can control them through an app, flash with shelly-homekit, or use homebridge-shelly to control them.
