If you want to do it more pragmatically, you could use something like
this (adjust the template as needed).
(add-to-list 'org-capture-templates
'("d" "Deadline" entry
(file "~/org/inbox.org")
"* %^{Headline}\n DEADLINE: %^t"))
See (info "(org) Template expansion")

My template for work projects includes this fragment:
"* TODO %^{Title} %^g\n SCHEDULED: %^{Scheduled to begin}t DEADLINE:
%^{Deadline}T\n [...]"
Note the t's after the prompts, asking specifically for the date (t) to
start work and and date + time (T) for the deadline.
Yours,
Christian
