Looking for idea on installing dead bolts on my garage door?

I was thinking about using a smart-outlet to power them on to open the lock or even something like a regular front door deadbolt to put a square piece of steel in the way of a roller on each side. Electric would be good. I see a lot of 12v things being sold for hundreds of dollars but 12v in a garage seems like a kludge. 120v would be best as that is what is usually available in our garages. Has anyone mounted a regular manual deadbolt one one, what did your bracket look like? Anyway looking for diy ideas for doing this prior to our next 6 month trip.

I was shocked to learn there is no way to fix this without sending it in to apple (not a store) There isn't a reset button or anything else. Not as well engineered as I had thought before yesterday.
