DIY Concealment Coat Rack | Hidden Storage In Plain Sight

[@thesquinty1]

I haven’t seen anyone on YT do a better job at tutorials. Thanks!

[@dian3145]

Your tutorials make projects approachable and achievable! The tips and tools (need to get me some of those specialty spacers) along the way to get a professional finished project really set us up for success. I built your concealment end table for my daughter. I was sent the wrong struts, and the company express shipped the correct one the same day. Great people to work with!!!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you! And yes, Lock connections is a great company!

[@onehot57]

Nice job young man, very well presented!

[@airamee103006]

I just litterally went back and watched your older version of this video yesterday. I really thinking of making this for my home and surprised and very happy you updated the old version with this one. Time to get into the shop

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Perfect timing!

[@ChrisStCyr-gnt7]

I enjoy that you are showing another way to make something you previously made. You did a great job pointing out that there are more than one way to do things with the bevel cuts on the top. Many viewers get hung up on the fact they don’t have the fancy green, red, orange, or order to the builder has. I’ve been using my hand saw today and it has been fun and saved r lots of trips from the second floor of my house to my basement shop and no need to don hearing protection! Thanks for all you do. Enjoy some time with your family over the holidays.

[@Bull43459]

As usual a great build brother. I build similar Flag cases with the RFID lock. One issue I ran into is the batteries die and there's no way to access it unless you cut it open. I started putting a removable back piece to make it easier for the customer when they need to be changed. Extra steps but worth it in the end. 😊

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

The good thing with these locks is that it will give you about 70 warning beeps and opens before it completely dies.

[@theusconstitution1776]

Great video fantastic content and of course your personality means that in my group of friends you would just be one of the boys❤️‍🔥🙏🏼🇺🇸 Thank you

[@dominicchappell1399]

I've made and sold a few of these. I pocket hole everything from the rear face of the back panel. Then just need a pocket hole on the top of each side piece and the bottom (like in the video). Zero need for plugs. Great design and I'm glad you revisited this video. Your instruction style has got so much better over the years

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Much appreciated!

[@MrDmorgan52]

Just curious. What do you get for them?

[@dominicchappell1399]

@MrDmorgan52 if you finish them up nicely, you can get around $200 for them... At least in my area. I also add about 3/4 of in inch (maybe a little more) in depth. Everyone that has purchased from me wants to put an AR in it. With the original design, the lid will not close on a standard AR. If there are any accessories on it, that just makes it need to be even deeper. FYI

[@alexreid4131]

@@dominicchappell1399curious if after the price of lumber, hardware (gas struts, hinges, rf lock, hooks etc.) foam (that stuff is super pricey!) consumables and your time plus markup…are you getting much profit on a $200 price tag? Thanks for any info on this.

[@Itsreallymarcus]

@@dominicchappell1399$200? Hell, I have been making these almost exact ones he just made with different locks, paint jobs and wood types that my customers request and I’ve never been under $400, more often between $450-$475.$ 200 you aren’t making any money at all. Crazy I seen this and was shocked. Ive been doing these for 6-8 months lol. Just wild to see peech make a video on the same thing I’ve been doing lol.

[@waynebright6452]

Matt, I have a tip for you. When using the Kreg Hinge Jig, if you remove the forstner bit guide assembly, there are two small guides/pilot holes for pre-drilling for the screws for the hinges. I typically have one drill set up with the forstner bit guide assembly, and a second one with the drill bit for the screws. I don't remember the size off hand.

[@BlueJeanF150]

This is so cool. It's been over 6 years since I've built anything but this might be the project that gets me to make some sawdust again. Glad I found your channel, it was a Harbor Freight saw comparison that I first watched and then finding your cool projects.

[@bobberndt9744]

I have no need for this (yet) but it's a great watch. Thanks for the detail and cautions. Very entertaining.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

I appreciate you watching!

[@winkfinkerstien1957]

The issues I struggle with are: 1. Storing Products ready for sale. 2. Creating Product Photos that entice buyers. 3. Packaging and Shipping. 4. Parting with products that didn't sell; a sense of loss. I'm new to your channel & you may have covered these issues already. Thank you. 👍🏼

[@pepperman5752]

Nicely done Matthew! I can see a black walnut and/or white oak one of these in my future. Wouldn't mind seeing you trick one of these out with all the decorative routing work and the like (i.e., the realm of the possible). I could easily see the customers name engraved in there, now that would add to the wow factor. Hidden rooms, secret compartments, and the like hit so many button.

[@steveezard8859]

Whoa, im 30 seconds into this vid and have found my solution for the making of a knife case, thank you, been looking for a perfect idea for months

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Great to hear!

[@liquidrockaquatics3900]

Just as an idea, they sell premade red oak stair treads which are basically 5/4 premade panels; I have used them on several occasions because they save time and are very close to the same price all in. They have 3 straight sides and are square.

[@andrewmaccaskey4388]

Beautiful work

[@jimrosson6702]

What am amazing video Mathew can’t wait to get moved and get my new shop set up so I can build one of these. Thank for all the amazing videos. Keep up the great work

[@Itsreallymarcus]

I did this same exact build custom for a client of mine about 6 months ago. Only difference is the lock used and he wanted a white washed gray paint job. Turned out amazing. Very weird that peech builds the same thing as me now lol. Makes me feel ahead of the game for once haha. I’ve also made a few others, different paint jobs and wood types. But everything else identical. My mind is blown haha

[@darrinsparks8119]

Liking your videos , this one I will be trying soon. Hate I didn’t see it sooner or I’d have tried a couple as Christmas gifts.

[@sueramsey7031]

Great build!! I need this, although I probably won't ever tackle this on my own.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

[@cabman86]

What an awesome piece of furniture! Great build and video!

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Thank you!

[@xMyNameisJames88]

I may be wrong, but the kreg concealed hinge jig has a spot on the jig to predrill the holes for mounting the hinge as well. It's the little holes (1/16") on the inside of where the piece that holds the forstner bit locks in to the jig.

[@yuliyabryant4052]

Wow, this is a very impressive video. I am beside myself from it. Looks great and I would love to try to build one just like that.

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

[@robertkurilla7859]

Very nice build I love it one question how do you get the cabinet open if the battery is dying on your lock?

[@rickyfargason8859]

Think there's always something in us woodworkers who love hidden spaces. Be it in a house or a piece of furniture. Hidden drawer bottoms with access from the side or spaces behind a wall.

[@wikusvandeventer4877]

Matthew, I love watching your videos. I wanting to do a secret door into an old closet to conceal the closet. I've got pin hinges that I plan to use, but I'm not sure how to line everything up. Anyway you could give some help or maybe do a video in such?

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

[@user-tv5dt3nm9y]

Nice piece. Amazing the audio quality you get with the wireless mic on your hat. Have you tried your hand at an interior hidden door? I refer to a DIY version of the built kind that have a book case on one side. They are pricey. In my case thinking of a second door to a bedroom that is occasional use. Just don’t want a proper door and frame messing up either side of room asthetics.

[@Bullzak_83]

Nice looking project..

[@Ron-0417]

Hey Matt, I notice that when you rip boards on the table saw, you use your tape measure to set the width. Do you not trust the built in tape measure on your saw, or does you saw not have one or is that just for show, for the video sake?

[@randycordes464]

You did a excellent job o building that and a great video

[@jond1965]

Matt awesome build for sure! Question about the fob lock. Of the AA batteries die While the door is locked. How do you get in to replace them?

[@MatthewPeechWoodworking]

Hey I use one from a company called lock connections- I’ll send you what he has in the description for this item. - If battery life starts to get low, a low voltage alarm will sound to indicate a battery change is necessary. Total battery drainage will result in the lock being unable to lock ensuring you will never have a locked out situation. This lock as an AC port on the side of the body and can be used with an AC power adapter or Power Jack(not included).

I love this and truly want to build one of these for each of my brothers. My question is, how to get to the batteries if they die and you can't open the door to get to them?

[@dian3145]

If you buy the ones from his source, they alarm for a while when batts are low, then it unlocks before they die so you are never locked out.

I like the concealment coat rack, but have a suggestion. When a person opens the cabinet to see what you have in there. How about a really concealed area underneath the original concealment area?

Excellent!

Many thanks!

I'm running into a problem with my lid not popping open and my coat rack is smaller in size and so are my gas struts would the measurements, be different for a six inch strut, and a ten in a half inch box with a, twelve and a half inch lid? I've been trying for weeks to figure it out

[@GodsMan500]

@Matthew (and anyone else who wants to chime in), I’m concerned about the fact that the backboard and foam are perfectly vertical. It seems to me that the contents could potentially fall out or be dropped while removing, which presents the risk of an accidental discharge. I wonder how feasible it would be to have an inner backboard the foam is attached to and which would hinge at the top. There would be a spring mechanism of some sort that would push the backboard up from the bottom (because the hinges would be on top), thereby making the backboard assume a 25 degree angle. When the front panel is again closed and locked, it would push the inner backboard back down to assume a vertical position just like the front cover. I’m think that while the foam can be made to fit tight, it could get looser over time, and if it’s too tight, it could be difficult to remove the fire….arm in an emergency when the owner is highly stressed (home invasion, etc.). Anyone have any thoughts on this?

[@GodsMan500]

I see in the video on the other channel that you used magnets to hold them in place. That’s a good idea, but I would still prefer having the gun bed be partially horizontal in case my clumsy fingers decide to slip and drop the fire….arm.

I don't know if you have ever considered making furniture for holding various musical instruments (electronic). I've been kicking around ideas much like these and the tables meant for table top games. Removable top of some form, like an expandable with a leaf/insert? Synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, effects pedals... They all have cables and wires that turn into a huge rats nest. Like a recording studio, hidden inside a coffee table or farmhouse? ©️ Don't steal my idea unless you send me a free one! 🎼🎶🎵🖤
