You may also want to have a look at maglocks, I have some that I will be
fitting on side gates.

I think you were looking to use the deadbolts as additional security, but
just in case ...

I would be very cautious of using any electronic solution as your primary
means of securing your home, mainly from an insurance perspective! They
love
to wriggle out of claims.

As to how you would get in from outside, either a magnetic stripe card
reader, keypad, or a button on your alarm remote.

Cheers, Des.
