0:47 – hahah classic stud finder joke. If there has ever been a stud finder manufactured that hasn’t been subjected to that joke I’d be very surprised. They probably even do that during quality control just to make sure people’s joke punchlines don’t get ruined.
2:38 – Instructions doubling as a template… now that’s just smart. I love when things have a dual purpose like that.
All in all I think Tactical Walls are a cool idea, and the pricing isn’t too bad at all ($110 for the big insert, $40 for the small one).
I’m my own biggest fan… I knew I blogged about Tactical Walls in the past so I just looked up the post and LOL’d at:
Their installation instructions are basically “Dick in a box“, so not that big of deal if you own something that will cut through drywall.
Spectre is wearing the ENDO Guns And Coffee t-shirt.
That mirror isn’t my style, but that “key” to unlock it is a cool idea.
Thoughts?

Emergency twinkie storage closet.
Being as its just a hide and not secure storage it works better when you dont advertise to the whole internet you just installed one…….
Nah, you just need to double up on protection. Sure burglers will know to check behind his mirror but they’ll think they just found the most bizarrely designed linen closet when all they see are Patriot Pillows.
For $400, you could just buy a gun safe. Sure, it’s not “hidden” but do you really think a thief isn’t going to figure out that mirror is mounted a little too well? LOL
Not bad, it probably wouldn’t be for me but I’m glad it exists as an option. I’ve been exploring things like this as I’m really into the idea of “hidden in plain sight” stuff and hidden rooms.
Well my mom did say she wants one now.
They should put “Mom approved” on their advertising. LOL ;)
Is it just me or does it appear that a big mirror is now an expensive (and fragile) doorstop for the door into the room?
I have gotten a lot of comments about that actually. We put 3 of those steel hinge stops on the door to ensure that it can’t swing that far even if you throw out open.
I really like this idea. I wonder what other types of “camouflage” trim work can be created.
this is my dream:

have it open to a steel safe door.
This looks like a good book case design:

I wonder how big of a dumb ass he will feel like when that door knob shatters that mirror?
I used a sawzall when I installed mine.
