No. The meteors you see in meteor showers are sand to pebble sized objects that burn up long before reaching the ground. Most meteors are too small to reach the surface. Meteorites come from larger meteors that fall individually and often show up brilliantly in the night sky. Some a bright enough to be visible during the day.

What force allows asteroids to fall from orbit and hit Earth's surface?

The asteroids that strike earth's surface do not fall from orbit. Asteroids have fairly small masses, so their orbits are easily altered by interactions with other objects. Sometimes the orbit of an asteroid is changed such that its orbit intersects Earth's orbit. If the timing works out so that the asteroid reaches the point of interestion at the same time as Earth does, then a collision will result.
