My first inclination is a recluse, but I'm aware of how many people get that wrong what with all the similar looking spiders around here.

Yes, the trap-doors are more closely related to tarantulas than the other spiders you mentioned, so they are much bulkier. That one looks to be male to me, so I think you’ve found one out looking for a lady.
