Apparently the pull is substantial, and there is a release from the inside, and of course keyed on the outside. The pull would be at the top center so I'm not sure if this would be ideal although you could have secondary safety latches inside. This could eliminate an outside handle for locking the bird up at night? Thanks Doug
