If you have tools and are good with wood[ROFL2]you can do this your self. Shouldn't be hard to implement a keypad or fingerprint scanner.

I'm sure you could use other screws, but I haven't spent the time trying to find another source. There's nothing very special about them, except the square drive is nice.Quote:

I used to have a YT vid of a guy making a bookshelf door to a secret room. The shelf was on tracks and electro magnets held it shut.
I was the guy! That room was bad ass. The magnets held about 150lbs each so you could push on the bookshelf as hard as you wanted and it wouldn't budge. Flip the switch, and it popped right open. It was completely invisible.Quote:

i debated when I was selling that house whether or not I should leave the room open during showings. I left it unlocked, but closed, with a little note that said "push me". It was always open when I came back home. I bet people really got a kick out of it.
I though it was someone from this site. That was an interesting set-up. Is the video still online?
no, it's no longer on YouTube. And I don't think I even have any pictures.Quote:

My wife was bitching at me while I was building it because it was taking so long, but when I was done she apologized after seeing how awesome it was.
Some neat ideas for concealment within furniture here:

I don't think their execution is perfect (some of them are pretty easy to spot) but there are some good ideas that could be improved upon.
I don't have time to check it out, but there might be some good ideas here: http://www.pinterest.com/teb60/safe-...hidden-spaces/
What about countermeasures for things like metal detectors? Anyone got any ideas there?
