I am trying to put a hidden bookcase door in a wall that will be 3 foot wide and 80 inches high. It will hinge in to a storage area. The shelves will be six inches deep. Looking at it, one would think it was a bookcase not a hidden door. Any ideas on how to construct this.

JustMe asked:


We have a room in our house that is more of an office/study. It is not a huge room but the ceilings are quite high. I have always thought about a huge book case. Kinda like you see in movies where you need a ladder. (but not a whole wall).

How tall can i built my book case without fearing it tip over, or is there a certain ratio where if i build it deep enough it will be okay. ok - dreaming i would have a 15′ book case but how tall could i really realistically build it for a home to be safe not being a master finish carpenter?

I’m making a dining table for friends and at one side of the table, I would like to make a bookcase between the legs. I have once seen a picture of a similar design but have lost it. Now, I’m looking for pictures or drawings to get inspiration and ideas on how to design it.

I have an IKEA bookcase and small-sized entertainment center that I bought years ago. I’m moving and want to bring them with me but their colors just don’t go with my new decor. Is there a way to paint them so that they look decent?? Would love to paint them a dark cherry color but not sure if I can - or if I should.

Ok……..I have all the wooden pieces made and ready. They are all of equal size. I want to build a small bookcase. How do I attach these pieces together so they don’t fall apart. What are these pieces called?

I have a blonde wood bookcase that I would love to turn black, but I don’t want it to be permanant. I want to be able to re-use the bookcase in another room without having to through the whole process of stripping the paint and refinishing it. Any easy ideas for me?
