Altman Door Latch questions

I am going to install Altman Door latches on my 55, F-100.

My truck does not have the drivers door key lock.

Do most of you folks install a drivers key lock?

What is your recommended keyless electric lock actuator to use with the Altman latches?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.

I am only going to have power door locks hooked up to an alarm system. I am keeping the crank windows.

That motor actuator looks heavy duty. I like it.
Did you use yours with the Altman latches?
Do you have any pictures of how you linked the actuators to the Altman system?

On my pickup and the one I'm doing now I did use the Altman locks, I have hundreds of pictures on my builds and will have to look through them to see if there is any on the install. Those actuators come with rods to attach to the latches..when I go out to the shop tomorrow I'll see if I can get a clear shot of the set up..
