Blog: http://thereluctantbuilder.blogspot.com/ Re: I want a secret passage... 22May 21, 2009 5:41 pm I Love This Thread. OMG Yes you should have one (at least!). Fun in a build - what an idea! I wish I had one. I had thought I could put a small door in my pantry thru to under my stairs - then out thru the stair door. But it sounded silly. We should do more stuff just for the fun of it. Those book case ones are my favorites. And the rock wall. And the trap door and the slide. But you Must Not use it for storage or hiding things! Too practical. Fun only.

But I write suspense novels, and see other reasons for them! Think how safe you would feel with one in your home! But other than that………..what a fun thing to have. I always say, try to be different, now that’s not what your neighbours and friends would have.

I'm all for a secret room! With our house plans, we've flipped the back half and basically it leaves a space where the fridge recess was which we can either leave (but will look funny where it is) or we can put a wall on it. So we're gonna cover it over and have a very small room only accessable from going through the manhole which will be handy for i don't know what, but cool none the less. Building Sahara 27 with Aaron J Re: I want a secret passage... 31May 21, 2009 6:45 pm Why not have a secret passage to your secret dungeon? Oh...that would probably add way too much to the site costs, right? I think it's cool too - but then, don't take that as any kind of sane endorsement. I've been told many times that I don't act my age. Re: I want a secret passage... 32May 21, 2009 7:21 pm ozkarnak Whoooo Hoooo - I feel so relieved ! Ok granted the three supporters so far aren't the most sane ones of the homeone family but who cares - Yaay a secret passage does rock ! So - so far for uses I have : * Hide presents * Hide from kids and OH (ok don't have either of these but my multiple personalities can be quite annoying at times). * Hide expensive stuff 7 important documents what else ?. I think you should have some sort of pole that leads to a cave where you could take your youthful ward and dress up in masks and capes. Get a super computer and fight crime. Re: I want a secret passage... 33May 21, 2009 7:49 pm A secret passage/secret room in a must!! We never planned one, but created one by accident...so decided to keep it!! haha As for use...if it's a room - hiding special wine, meetings for a secret club, 'naughty room' for kids if you have any...haha...umm umm...poker room! All in all, a fantastic idea! Re: I want a secret passage... 34May 21, 2009 7:58 pm ozkarnak It would be really really wrong to have it going from the master bedroom to the WIP wouldn't it ?. Absolutely ludicrous idea...what happens if you put on weight an get stuck...what you should have is a pantry with two sets of doors...one at the front accessible for practical things and then another set at the back which open from the master bedroom...so all the "goodies" shoved to the back of the pantry are now at the front... mmm....donuts Homer Simpson 1956- Links: Site Costs Ready Reckoner | H1 Addiction Medical Advice | Château TDL: The Backyard Re: I want a secret passage... 35May 21, 2009 8:03 pm That's so cool...I want a secret passage now!

Secret rooms these days make me think very much of "Panic Room." I'd love one though. How cool. Re: I want a secret passage... 37May 21, 2009 8:55 pm Awsome idea, love it, love it, love it...BUT what would you use it for....seriously???

Or are they stuck onto the shelves with glue, which would mean that they arent really books anymore but just ornamentals coz you cant read them? Ok I'm overthinking it!
