My mom has a keypad lock like the one you mentioned. It drives me crazy, because the numbers go from 1-5 along the top row, and 6-0 along the bottom next row, with some unknown button right underneath the 8. I really wish it had the numbers in a standard telephone layout, but I'm at their house so rarely that it's not really a big deal. If I ever did get a keypad lock like this, I'd like to find one with the numbers in the standard telephone layout.
