z-wave door locks for sliding doors

I see lots of great deadbolts etc. that support Z-wave and other automation.
 
What about solutions for sliding glass doors?
 
I'd like to have all external doors connected with automated locks.   We have sliding doors and I don't know how to automate them.
One thought was a magnetic lock, but low on the WAF.
 
Anyone have ideas here?

Maglock also introduces other issues with life safety.
 
There's really no off the shelf solution for a slider. They're all non-standard and don't share a common bored hole size, spacing or locking method.
 
We may have to rely on alarms for these doors.   Was hoping for an "all secure" command that would lock all exterior doors.  
 
The door do have space to drill a hole for a deadbolt.   Not high on WAF

Deadbolt isn't going to help on a slider......maybe on a french or atrium door.
