I couldn't find an electronic door latch for my workshop door, so I made one. I just used a secure car central locking kit with 2 remotes and a slave solenoid. I Made the contacts from biro springs and empty .22 cartridge cases. Shouldn't have trouble making it work off 12V battery backup either, but for the moment SWMBO just wants it mains-powered.
