Fletchsays...Cool, but why?
Paybacksays...Upvote for telling everyone on the internet about your secret door.
albrite30says...One would think that including a flap with a keypad would defeat the purpose behind obscuring the door from vision. Remote only access with a regularly mounted water spigot would be much more hidden, if a little less convenient.
EvilDeathBeesays...Not exactly hidden, I mean there's grooves in the wall that have a remarkably similar size and shape of a door. Not to mention the water tap placed at a height where no tap would be placed, but maybe a door handle. However, it's definitely inconspicuous. No one's gonna notice it at a glance. Very cool
fritzo9602says...That's where they keep the pit where it puts the lotion on it's skin.
nanrodsays...The purpose? I assume there would be a real looking but fake front door whose real purpose is to confound the hell out of Jehovah's Witnesses and the DEA.
jmdsays...Note that the water tap is not a door knob. I can see a tap being that high too. Low taps suck for us tall people.
Darkhandsays...789# HAHAHA NOW I CAN ENTER THROUGH YOUR SECRET DOOR!!!
