Abloy security do a range of locks (including solenoid mortice lock -
solenoid operates IN the lock, not on the catch). They are
considered to be one of the best locks in the industry but are
pretty expensive. They have a patented very high security mechanism
using rounded barrel keys (like modern car keys).

I'm going to get some of these but haven't got round to ordering yet
(will cost somewhere in the region of =A3350 per lock kit)
