Every house should have a hidden door! :)
How do you know they don't? (Immediately starts pushing on walls and bookshelves throughout your house). ;)
Much gratitude to you Matt for suggesting those Japanese hinges, they work great on hiding my "man door" in my old garage door for a mixing suite and production studio build out in my old two car garage - made the HOA happy they can't tell from the street ... Keep up the great work Cheers
What a great walk down memory lane. I'd love to see more themed compilation videos like this.
Inspired by Matt's videos, I did hidden doors for our hall linen closet and laundry machine closet for a remodel. They open out and have baseboard trim run across the bottom. So I used pivot hinges by Rixson. It took some sketching and fitting, but I was able to have conistent 1/8" gaps all around.
Do you have the link to the hinges please? We just hired a contractor to do a hidden shelf under the stairs and oh boy he messed up real bad. Now I'm trying to give him suggestions. Please and Thank you.
Superb work, from conception to execution. Respect!
Thank you for putting this compilation together for me!
Thanks for putting this video together. I now know about the different parts/ tricks that can be used to make my hidden door work seamlessly 😉.
I love hidden spaces. Spend an inordinate amount of time on YT looking for ideas.
Loved hidden doors so much. Went and built my own!
That was cool. Glad I don't have a place in my house to use one because I imagine it's a very tricky build. I just did a barn door install by framing out a 30"X78" French door to 38"X84" with ripped down 2X6s, dowels and wood glue. The hardware kit was from Amazon and the instructions were pretty vague, so there's a lot of measurements that can go wrong, but I got it done for our new 4 season sunroom upgrade. Great video Matt!!
Yeah, I really need some place to put one of these in, love hidden doors! That's how I found Matt's channel!
“Always use plywood when building a hidden door, because MDF will sag over time.” Then a few scenes later… “this door is made using MDF” lol.
Yeah, I noticed most were MDF lol. I guess the plywood comment was intended for _actual_ concealed entrances that are supposed to be truly secret, like the art studio/ semi-panic room behind the bookshelf. Not for typical ‘hidden’ doors that have reveals showing where they are. They’re all beautiful doors regardless, but very few are hidden enough to hide in plain sight from intruders since that’s not the intent 9/10 times.
Hidden door bookcase, he said.
Door = not that heavy
Bookcase = heavy
Bookcase with books = yea that needs plywood for sure
@@qwerty112311 Doors can get surprisingly heavy, too. MDF can be quite heavy as well. But yeah, I totally glossed over the bookshelf part lol. That's gonna be _ridiculously heavy_ when fully loaded, hence the rollers at the open end of the door leaf. That and the 'James Bond' door are probably my favorites, since they are some of the better concealed ones. And there's something very satisfying about a classic door-hidden-in-a-bookshelf situation.
Wouldn’t plywood delaminate over time? Just asking
@@damientrevino9481 probably not
I used to install carpet and my favorite door was hidden in the master closet, behind the hanging clothes, had to bend over a bit to get under the bar but the back wall opened up with a good push into a room
Looks like MDF got more Poplar. :)
All right move along. :P
Bah-doom ching!!!
Nice job 👏👍👌I like the ideas with the doors.
Very nice thnxs!!
Very clean
Some absolutely brilliant ideas here that can be incorporated into the man cave! Thanks for the insight.
Nice video Matt , the build show as always hello from tijuana Mexico
Favorite video yet!
Hidden doors are so cool !!
Okay matt, BOOMING in with the new intro tune 🔉🔊🎧🎧🎧👍
Nice vid Matt - this will probably go viral!
You are the only guy on the internet WHO NEVER AGES!
Thank you!
Wow....this is amazing... I wish I have a hidden door in my basement!
Wow what a great little apprentice you have in Vera!😊
Wow great 👍 ideas 💡
Hidden doors are awesome!
the last video about this house will be an auction for subscribers, where Matt will sell it :-D
Did some work in a house here in Austin a while back that had a super cool hidden basement. This basement was probably about 6 to 700 SQ ft so decent size. So one door was a book shelve with a hidden latch in the hallway that opened up to a stair case. The other door to it was in the garage. The corner trim flipped open to reveal the latch then the entire corner opened up. There was also a separate room in the basement with a huge commercial steel door and the walls were all reinforced with sheet metal hidden under the drywall. Kinda made me a little nervous wondering what he used that room for lol
Probably nothing much. Storing junk or books that might someday be forbidden. Maybe just the normal 60% of people who do not trust the corrupt government. Some people buy ugly sports-cars or rims to feel important. Some people build secret rooms.
How much did the house sell for
Looks like they were happy with your work because you made it out of the house.
HIdden doors are coolest thing in the world!
I'm definitely a good number of those hidden door watches... 😏
Love those doors, man! :-)
I love the idea secret ways behind a wall.. If you had a big showie home it would be easier to get around faster.
Always a fan of the hidden doors!! It’s funny in one video you said don’t use MDF because of sag, then the last one was all MDF. 🤣
He did say that in regard to hidden door book cases. So maybe it’s due to the weight of all the horizontal shelves and structure that makes it prone to sag, not the case with a simple vertical slab door. Makes sense, in my home all my “oak” doors are largely made from fibre/chip board with a pressed foil “veneer” and don’t sag.
That comment was specific to the bookshelf doors
Awsome I am going to build one
Center pivot systems tend to work the best. I’ve done quite a few over the years and like the ability to have infinite adjustment and load carrying that conventional hinges don’t offer. I fabricated the upper and lower pivots myself and they work flawlessly with well over 2000 lbs of weight in the box. I use only electromagnetic locks on these units. Easy to set up and impossible to open when engaged. The key is to counter stress the back of the cabinet with cables and turnbuckles to counter the torsion of an open face box, which will always be an issue with a wood box.
Hey Matt, fantastic video. I am curious where you sourced the music. I really like that beat track. Thanks in advance.
I do hidden gun safes and these are awesome!
i am inspired. I'm gonna try to do a hidden door on my basement remodel.
BATHROOM DOOR SITS TOTALLY "FLUSH".
I like these flashbacks
Intro 🔥
Hey mat, all those hidden doors looks great,
can you recommend the
hinges and the
push latches
needed for closet doors. I have 4 closets which I would love to make invisible. Please let me know. Thank you
Matt, you are looking good these days, slim and trim.
Hidden door cigar room would be 🔥
Your hidden doors inspired me to install two while we are remodeling. The company who made the doors used SOSS hinges. I'm having a very hard time getting an expert (master carpenter) to install them correctly! And living in south Louisiana hurricane Ida hit and all the trades are beyond busy as well as fixing their own homes that sustained damage. Any suggestions would be great!
Also, I would like to find out where to order the Electromagnetic locks from???
Location?
what did you wrap the mdf edges with on the 3 layer door?
i'm considering a hidden door to integrate with my wall paneling for a closet under the stairs, those are some really interesting ideas!
Man you’ve lost some weight over the years. We’ll done.
Just had our Brombal windows turn up from Italy to install.
Would love to see the project finished you did a while back that was going to have Brombal windows installed.
I would really like to see the hinged side of the door,how to get the same reveal on a out swing door with shiplap thanks dave
What are the best hinges you would suggest??
when using the sugatsune hinges, does the door jamb have to be the same width as the doors thickness? like the door at the 4:06 min mark?
Hidden door = NO gaps. Too many of these “famous” hidden doors are not hidden. The very first one is hidden well.
~ 4:13 anyone interested like me, those are SOSS hinges. Home Deee Pot has them.
6:37 - "We don't want to use MDF that would sag..."
8:27 - "Our carpenters made it out of MDF..."
smh
Every house should have a hidden door that leads o a hidden room the wife doesn't know about. Ultimate Man Cave goals.
Why, so it never gets cleaned?
If I had a good wife, I would want her in the man cave with me, sometimes, at least. And build her a "secret" room also.
Hidden door to the bathroom: "It'll be totally flush when you're all done." Nice pun.
How can you add a push latch for a hidden door to enter the rokm but that will let you leave the room from the inisde? Will a standard push type latch break if you try to exit the room?
nice video :D love those hidden doors
does anyone else cringe over "on the build show"? cause I get goosebumps
Curious how to secure the gun closet if the power goes out. I've worked in houses with the same electromagnetic locks and a quick flip of a circuit breaker is all it takes to defeat it. Which is a glaring problem in those houses, let alone a gun closet.
Sugatsune should be a sponsor
You have a link for the magnet push latch?
8:50 Note to self: Do not drunkenly go over to Matt's house in the middle of the night, bang on doors and ask to borrow tools.
Wow, look at that hair in some of those videos!
Loved the doors. But I couldn’t help but wonder how the steps with the cable rails passed inspection. Not the rails but that bottom step is very questionable
If I ever have a house built, I'm going to have a hidden door to a closet with another hidden door to an entertainment room inside
Please a link to the outro music.. I'm obsessed..
Important part of these videos is close up of the hinges how they work
@Matt Risinger I am moving to Portugal and definitely would want at least 2 hidden doors in my house. Would you happen to know anyone in Portugal that does this same work?
Side Note: have Matt thought about an episode of room layout or space planning? He could use Fiverr to pay other people to layout a bedroom or living room? It’s not build science but creature comfort is found in a proper room layout. Thoughts?
Poplar is technically a hardwood.. Albeit a soft hardwood but it looses its leaves in the winter and produces a nut.
I’m a master carpenter and I would work for you in a second. Love your attitude and creative design choices. Run of the mill contractor builds are BORING . I love out of the box projects. Can’t wait to do a hdeen door in my house.
What lock would you use for a hidden door for a bedroom
Great question. Look at the Sugatsune catalog to see if they have an option
have you ever done a Hidden door that needs a lock and bolt? My man door is in my entry way and trying to conceal it
anyone looking at using an electric keypad for a saferoom or locked room please do not.. especially DKS, DKS all use the same key and outside of using the same key being available to everyone they can be drilled out and the relay to unlock the door is in the keypad itself or the keypad can just be unscrewed off with a regular screwdriver or a security bit.. use wireless or hidden activation to trigger the unlock.
Good to know!
Should be called longest intro , lord knows you tube Gm fans love a long intro..🎉
Mdf again at 9:52
Soundtrack name please!
Are those MDF doors literally just MDF, with no solid timber stiles?
What hinges.
Alright y’all! I need to check everyone’s photo collections, pronto..
“Everyone seems to like the hidden door videos the best. So, what in the world are all of you fellers trying to hide from everyone out there??” (*Laughs*)
“Anyways, I’ve been building my new house and would love to show y’all some of the neat features I’ve recently added. So as of now, throughout the house, I’ve installed 26 hidden doors….”🤔
So the regular episode was delayed and instead we're getting a clip show? UA-cam really is turning into television. :-D
But this is a good one
I made a hidden door safe for my guns, love soss hinges, also has a hidden key lock
me changing sauce to soss on my google search... 🤦♂️
Massacre in the Japanese technique.
It's pronounced show sue gee bahn I realized that's a very old video and I still Love your stuff😁
"When building a hidden door, you don't want to use MDF"
"I love those door, they built it out of MDF"
"What we did on this door was we used MDF"
Matt looks so young in some of these
just push any surface under the downstairs lol
One door: we use plywood
Next door: so you used mdf?
Love hidden doors. But I think the only true purpose for a hidden door is to conceal a room or space that is, at best only used in an emergency, aka rarely.
Anything that is used more frequently will leave behind marks of use. Be that touch points, foot traffic or operating hardware.
One of my cabin designs calls for a “hidden” bookcase door, to maximize space and hide storage spaces. But the idea is not to keep it secret, but rather to use the bookcase as … well as a shelf where I otherwise would have a normal cabinet door.
My particular challenge is that the bookcase needs to “lift out” of the row of bookcase sections and then slide over the adjourning panel. So it’s a dual out/side mechanism. And for that I have not yet found good hardware.
Who on earth would I go to in order to get this built for me? I can’t imagine going to an architect for a hidden door and having them take me seriously.
Since you like hidden things, is there a way to "hide" from the 'BOOM' ' BOOM' 'BOOM' of passing car stereos? I would love to learn some tricks to protect my sanity!
mass in your walls, and they make soundproof storm windows. I have thick old plaster walls; I can't hear shit. they repaved my street and I didn't even know it. you can add mass without doing plaster if you put rockwool or other heavy insulation inside and have thicker drywall.
Hey Matt, nothing to hide here!! haaaa but seriously, at one point you mention using plywood vs. MDF to avoid sagging but then seems to hear your guys using MDF. Did I miss something? Which one is better backer for custom clad door.?
I think the recommendation for avoiding MDF might have been specific to the bookshelf, where the wider span and additional weight has the potential to cause sag.
@@DeusWolf that makes sense
MagnusM got it right.
Come by for a cup of coffee, I need some tips on my house! 🤣👍
A commercial for hinges
Only use true plywood, not MDF (6:37)....but let me show you these other doors where we used MDF (8:28 & 9:51) ....
I really want to do a hidden door in my house. what companys have the best doors.
So why is your house so big on the outside, and so small on the inside? Something fishy here?
I want a huge secret lab, like on _Dexter's Laboratory._ But what would I do with a secret lab? I am not a mad-scientist, at least not yet.
If you are looking to add a "wow" to your home sale, consider a hidden door.
I've done a few homes wid bookcases that were hidden doors to closed off rooms in the basement. 1 was for a Hindu family that led to their prayer room. Really cool add on
If you plan on staying in the house you just sold, consider a hidden door :)
At 2:25 you can get the same thing from IKEA for $4
