To the original poster: Why can't this specific unit be used?

Ah, got it.  Which access platform(s) are ideal for it to work with?

Other options we detail in Glass Doors and Access Control Tutorial:

When neither strikes nor maglocks can be used, a specialty lock is often the only option. Rutherford Controls International offers the 3360 and 3371 glass-door retrofit devices. They are neither a maglock nor strike, but are still abled to be locked/unlocked by standard door controllers:

Both products feature a 'swinging strikebox' that when locked is stationary and not not permit door swing. When unlocked, the motion of the door moves the strike box, and when door is closed the 'bolt' returns back into the box which returns to 'locked' position.

While the actions of the hardware are the same, the mounting surfaces differ. The 3360 is glued directly onto glass slabs, while the 3371 must be mounted into a door rail or accompanying frame.

This video demo shows the RCI 3371 in action:

Both products are 'Fail Safe' devices, include Latch Monitoring switches, and are available in 12V or 24V DC types.

Yeah this is a tough one.  You're concerned about the exposed wires to the lock?

We have one like this in our lobby.  I will see what we have in place and get back to you. No luck our door is not all glass there is metal framing at the top and bottom.  We utilize drop pin at the top to secure the door and have a reader on a stanchion just to the right of the door.  Sorry.
