Locksmith

I want to convert a push bar door to electronic mag-lock (prox tags, fingerprint, phone....etc).

Do I need to get a special type for a push bar or can I use any type with a magnetic strike plate?

There are a lot of components that goes into the set up you are talking about. It’s very difficult to interpret what you’re trying to do exactly, I’m not sure you’re using the correct terminology. This set up consist of a special type of push bar that has a switch in it, a mag lock, power supply, some form of card reader, fingerprint reader etc. I would highly recommend hiring a professional as this is something that needs to be designed & installed correctly. There are also local codes that restrict usage of mag locks in some areas, or require special permits for installation of these.

I got a smart lock and it says I need a minimum door thickness of 40mm.
My door is 35mm…
5mm doesn’t seem much but is it going to be a problem?

Yes it will be a problem. You can just install some plates to make up the difference. They make adapter plates for this very purpose, unless it’s a unique footprint, you may have to custom make some plates.
