Our offices are pretty much the same.  4 Digit extensions.

In the sip.conf, create a pickup group for the group of phones you want 
to allow to use this feature.

I have 3 phones in pickup group 1

[4100]

pickupgroup=1

[4101]

pickupgroup=1

[4102]

pickupgroup=1

In your features.conf:

pickupextension = *7

Call comes into 4100, person at 4102 presses *7 and grabs the call.
