how about use a standalone 2N keypad (https://www.2n.com/en_US/products/ip-access-control/2n-access-unit-2/2n-access-unit-2-touch-keypad)

And then use Chowmain's Generic TCP driver to communicate between the 2N and the C4? 

This is a great thread because the initial inquiry exposes a missing piece of C4's line-up: a driver that supports standalone keypads (Doorstations that do NOT have a camera).

Yes. This is the problem. Thank you!

Does this house have any other doors with access control? Or is this the ONLY location in the house where you want some kind of keypad control.

What's your role on this addition?

This is the only door. It's an office on an ADU. There is a porch that is covered where the keypad will reside. The whole wall of the ADU on the porch is windows and glass door. The keypad will go on a side wall of the porch that is solid.  I'm the design project manager (I work for the residential designer) and am the voice for the client.

But you are looking for an external keypad that will be exposed to the weather, yes?

Yes! Does one exist ... beyond a plastic cover on a keypad made for interior use?

Weird thread. Keypads for an electric lock shouldn't be confusing the "trades". Assuming someone intentionally purchased this door/lock and the house has other electric locks I would hope that a security company was involved. Is this the only door in the house with electric lock? Since this is a lock and not a strike is it wired through the hinge?

You don't want some goofy keypad next to a modern door. What does the client want?

I take it you are not the control4 dealer. GC for the addition?

We're in a rural area so this is all just unknowns to the team. Commercial key pads were not working for the high-touch client.  I am not the GC.

I just did a bunch of these recently at a commercial project.  All of them however were tied back to an access control system.

Basically, run an 18/4 from any C4 controller with a relay to where the connection is on the door.

Youll need a 12v or 24v power supply (whatever the lock requires) to energize the lock.

Then you’ll have to wire the power supply between a contact and relay on the C4 controller.

A C4 keypad (dc or ac powered) can be installed to wirelessly control the lock through programming.

Thank you!

You would have to put it in a outdoor switch type box. It's an indoor keypad, can be AC or DC powered.

We did a closet with one of their pocket door locks, used words as the code. IE: u n l o c k (obviously not that one).

I like the AC/DC option. What company makes this style switch? Is it Lutron? I want to go back to the low-voltage and electrician crews with as much info as possible. Thank you so much.  

Is this exterior rated? And I assume Control 4 would allow you to program a sequence? Like NOPQ, ABCD, WXYZ

We're putting in a narrow-stile aluminum door in this modern addition at a client's home.  It's commercial style door (made by Tube-lite) and thus has an electrified mortise lock (via Accurate Lock & Hardware) that is hardwired. I am trying to find a hardwired key pad that will mount on the wall next to the door that will work with this set up that does not have a camera or intercom. It would be great if it could integrate to Control 4 (at this point this is not a must, but a would be nice). Does such a device exist? This is quite unique for our region and has stumped all the trades.  This is the lockset - https://accuratelockandhardware.com/product/m1700e-motor-drive-electrified-narrow-backset-mortise-lock/
