We underpinned the base of one of the double width bookcase with wooden struts as it would be walked through. You can omit the base of the BILLY bookcase completely to avoid the step up threshold but we left it in. We didn’t want light streaming through from under the bookshelf doors and spoil the illusion of the bookcase. The Ikea bookshelves I was trying to mimic have a few routed features: stopped chamfered edges on the front side trim, and a curvy front edge on the shelves. I added the latter before cutting the shelves to length, though I didn't have the right router bit and so improvised. The chamfer I added with a bevelling bit, stopped 50 mm (2") or so before the end of each piece of trim. These little features seem so subtle as to be almost pointless, but their very subtlety is why they work - they add to the appearance of quality with contributing any ostentation.

The double column bookcase acts as the rolling door, which we attached 4 rubber castors (Everbilt, 2 1/2″ soft rubber swivel plate casters with 100 lbs load rating) under the base of the bookcase. The single column remains stationary. The sound module was mounted to a board and a big wooden lever triggers the switch on the bookcase. I used the top of a pop bottle to amplify the sound (it makes a huge difference, believe it or not). Four 718 × 60 × 19 mm (28 1/4" × 2 3/8" × 3/4").

Dad reinforced the base of the IKEA bookcase with a few pieces of offcuts from the single BILLY before screwing in the four 360-degree swivel caster wheels. and 5: Rip all of these into boards 185 mm (7 1/4") wide. From these 6 long boards, cut 18 pieces 718 mm (28 1/4") long. 12 of these are adjustable shelves, and will probably need to be shortened slightly so that they fit easily (only by a mm or so). I also did some subtle decorative routing on the edges of these 12 boards, and it is easier to do that *before* you cut them to length. Its opening function is one that not only looks clean and sophisticated, but also creates more available space in the room; please see the introduction video for invisible doors above. Concealed Door Gear – The Technical Part A frame around the BILLY bookcases was then built out of scrap wood from a partition wall we demolished in another room. We added plasterboard panels to this. We’ve not quite finished this bit, we have to add the picture rail and paint the plaster. We would like to tell you about the sleek and modern door hardware in our range which is called the invisible door system. Offering a smooth and effortless glide whilst giving the impression that the door is floating on air, it’s one of the most popular items in our range for a number of reasons. Easy To Install And Completely AdjustableAll pieces of this kit arrive primed allowing you to paint your secret, hidden door any color your want. As any murder mystery fan knows, secret rooms and hidden passageways are the best hiding places. They're prime real estate for stowing valuable treasures or concealing top-secret meeting rooms. But they aren't reserved for sneaky detectives. To conceal a hallway bathroom—and, yes, appeal to her client's love of period dramas—designer Lynn Kloythanomsup of Landed Interiors and Home recently installed a Murphy Door in a San Francisco home.

So how does it work? The first sound is triggered by the pushing the book in, and the second by the opening of the door. Both use a sound recording module with mic and speaker, and they're powered by 3 AA batteries mounted in a holder.Rip one board 185 mm (7 1/4") wide out of each left over piece. Trim to 2120 mm (83 7/16") long, and mark "outside right" and "outside left". For maximum stealthiness, I was keen to make the bookcase blend in with the rest of our furniture. The plan was simple: I would mimic the design and finish of our existing solid wood bookshelves as best I could, while adopting the hardware kit sold by the Murphy Door company, which is designed to support a door weighing up to 300 lbs.
