Any recommendations on a wall mounted Faraday cage key box?

We have the pouches, but they're annoying enough that I reckon they're properly closed less than 50% of the time.

Plenty of choice on the keyboxes, so I would like to get one that others have found works well (and avoid ones that don't).

This would be mounted in a home hallway so can't just use a plain metal one due to aesthetics.

No surfaces/shelves you could put a small decorative box on?

Literally any metal box will do.

This.

I’ve tested a small biscuit tin and it stopped the signal completely so a normal wall mounted metal key box will no doubt work as it’ll be much thicker than a biscuit tin.

Could you mount a metal key box inside a wooden one if you want it more aesthetically pleasing?

We’ve got one of these, tested by standing next to the car. Range of colours and also comes with 2 faraday pouches for out n about.
