Apparently the old XR2 boot releases are really strong. If anything, just get uprated hatch struts so the hatch lifts. Especially handy if you have a spoiler or smooth boot panel causing extra weight.

Uprated Hatch Struts (20%)
Universal Boot Release Kit

I'm going to use one of the locking door motors I ordered with my Toad but never fitted to my Fiesta
