@kithrup I'm pretty sure there is a lock that will do that, but I'd get a locksmiths version of the answer. Other than it being a knob (which, if it has a handle at all, I hate, you can't open a knob with your elbow).. i can't see why it would be a problem, in theory some of the nightlatches would do that, I'd think. They certainly have the general structure. But most of the actual locks i know are decades old.
@kithrup I mean, I don't entirely know what you are looking for. There are about 6 different kinds of mortice lock and a few other non mortice locks. Which is the one you think of as convenient? (My preference is the drawback night lock)
@kithrup all the lift up to lock doors we have are because they have extra bars that go through multiple points in the door into the frame. Those are only triggered by the lift up.
@kithrup We have a normal key mortice lock on a door that we got the inside replaced on and it just has a button you turn, not a key on the inside now. I have similar on my patio doors. We have a cylinder drawback on another door.

@IrishStewPodcast No, I liked the book, it had some great stories in it and reminded me of my grandmother and what she would have been like in her youth. (I also read it in English first before tackling it in Irish. I wasn't great at languages then)
