Electric Locks for French Door

[heffneil]

Hey all I am looking for some electric lock for a french door.  The problem is that it isn't a traditional deadbolt.  You have to lift the handle to lock the door but the hardware seems different.  Any ideas?  I was looking at something like the August but it requires a traditional deadbolt as well.  Is there any other device we can think of that will be electric?

Thanks!

Only thing, besides brewing your own, would be a maglock, but that'll require specific considerations.

That was a quick response and not a good one  I was afraid you would say mag lock.  There has to be something eh?

You're not going to do a direct interface with a lift and latch 3 point system, so only thing I can see is a shear maglock.

If you have an ELK M1 Gold perhaps you can use this http://www.smarthome.com/elk-m1kam-m1-single-door-access-module.html

Sounds like an Anderson door to me...

Well it is an Andersen door but pella and other brands like JeldWin are all the same mechanism for a french door?
