Wall Safe Recommendation Needed

I'm in the market to buy a wall safe for a handgun. I want something that provides quick and reliable access (i.e. no turn-dial combination locks or key locks). The two wall safes that I've found that seem like the best all-around fit for my needs, are:1. the "Gunlocker" (www.gunlocker.com), which has an electronic keypad; and 2. another wall safe (http://www.handgunsafe.com/wall_safe.htm), which has a Simplex push button mechanical lock.Does anyone have any personal experience with either of these wall safes, or recommendations for a different/better type?

    the Simplex push-button locks work like a champ, and last forever. Easy to work in the dark or when you are looking elsewhere. The electronic locks are also nice; I have been using one for the past 3 months now, without problems. The simplex has fewer combination possibilities, so if someone has repeated access and plenty of time, sooner or later they will get in. The electronic locks usually have a lock-out feature if three attempts are made using a bogus code. I have 2 Simplex lockboxs in my van, and they are just as good after 8 years of hard use as they were when new. Don't know how the digital one will look in 8 years.
