So I’m almost 100% converted. I have everything installed. I just need to tweak it a bit to get things to operate to my satisfaction. The door locks were just about the easiest thing i installed. I have my RFID working as well.
When I walk away is disables the push button start and when I return it will unlock the doors and enable the push button.
I have to put together a circuit to lock the doors when I leave and then it’ll be just about done. I may do some other things like turn on some lights when I approach. I haven’t decided.
Here are pics of the door lock system. It a very nice system. The system will lock or unlock both side if you manually push the door lock or with a key. so both doors operate at the same time.
Looking for a place to mount the Actuator:
Drilled holes and mounted behind the door:
It fits very nicely between the window guides and the door.
The wires were just long enough. I’d hate to try install on a longer door. Not there is a longer door in existence anyway, but…
The easiest part was connecting the 2 together. These rods are bendable and you bend it to bolt to your existing lock rod. Worked no problem. I have been spraying some white lithium grease on the locks inside the door and window hardware too to help to get them moving a little easier.
