A rather busy weekend limited bench time, but I did get started.
Mounting the keypad to the box required a slot to be cut to pass the pins through from outside. Found I needed to order 2-56 screws to attach the keypad, and the position of the fixing holes is tight with respect to the holes for the screws that hold the box together. It should just work though..
After that, it was back to the drawing board, to start translation of the schematic to a layout on strip board. Takes me back to the projects I used to make as a teenager
. This is about 50% done, and I can work on the remainder over the next few evenings and be ready for building in time for the weekend.

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
