Everything I've seen so far (electric strikes, maglocks, electric bolts) would require a secondary latch in order to keep the gate closed while unlocked. This would be needed to prevent wind from swinging the gate open and closed. I could use the existing thumb latch. The problem is that exiting while locked becomes clunky because you'd have to do two things at once, electrically unlock and simultaneously use the thumb latch; not ideal. So I think the best option is to use an electrified lockset similar to this: https://www.google.com/shopping/product/17145392278190466165?q=schlage+electrified+cylindrical+lock&rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS560US560&espv=2&biw=1536&bih=759&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiXjN7_rKTTAhUGIlAKHWbNB8cQ8wIIxQIwAQ
For this simple control can the ELK control this directly via the form C relay or would I need the ELK-M1KAM?
Can I add a simple wiegand waterproof rfid keypad to the ELK?
I was thinking I might even make it its own area for independent control. I think this would give the capability to arm/disarm the entire system with one code or just that area with a second code? Ill add a standard door sensor to monitor it should make a pretty good setup. Am I missing anything?
Thanks
