The Hidden Guitar Door is a handcrafted, real-wood concealed door inspired by the curves, lines, and artistry of a classic guitar. Designed as both a functional doorway and a statement piece, this hidden door blends musical expression with precision craftsmanship to create a truly one-of-a-kind architectural feature.
Perfect for music lovers, studios, creative spaces, and themed interiors, the Guitar Door conceals a full-size doorway while appearing as a sculptural guitar display. When closed, it becomes a striking visual centerpiece; when opened, it reveals a seamless hidden passage integrated directly into your space.
From the carved contours to the carefully shaped body and neck, every detail of the Guitar Door is designed to capture the soul of a finely crafted instrument. Installed in music rooms, home studios, entertainment spaces, or creative living areas, it immediately becomes the focal point of the room while discreetly hiding what lies beyond.
Unlike flat or modern concealed doors, the Guitar Door embraces artistic expression and craftsmanship, making it ideal for homeowners who want their hidden door to be seen — without being recognized as a door.
Each Hidden Guitar Door is built from solid hardwood — never MDF or particleboard. Skilled craftsmen shape, carve, and finish every door with precision to achieve realistic proportions, durability, and long-term stability.
The reinforced concealed hinge system ensures smooth, quiet operation while maintaining balance and structural integrity, even with the door’s sculptural form.
Every Guitar Door is custom built to order and arrives pre-hung for straightforward installation. You can customize:
• Wood species
• Finish or stain
• Swing direction
• Hardware configuration
• Optional shelving for bookcase-style functionality
This flexibility allows the door to function as a guitar-inspired display, a concealed entrance, or both — depending on your space and design goals.

Our bookcase doors are engineered to carry real books and everyday storage items when loaded properly.
For narrower-width doors, we recommend a maximum load of up to 300 lbs. For wider doors, weight capacity depends on proper distribution — with heavier items placed closer to the hinge side of the door for optimal balance and long-term performance.
If you plan to store heavier objects or want additional reinforcement, we strongly recommend upgrading to ¾″ backing, which provides added strength, rigidity, and durability.
Many hidden bookcase doors on the market are built using MDF, particle board, or lightweight components. While these materials may look fine initially, they often lack the structural strength needed to support real books over time.
Hide-A-Way Doors takes a different approach. Our bookcase doors are built from solid hardwood construction and engineered specifically to function as a true, load-bearing bookshelf — not just a decorative cover.
By combining real wood, concealed heavy-duty hinges, and precision balancing, our doors are designed to remain smooth, quiet, and properly aligned even when fully loaded.
Our hidden bookcase doors are designed to install into a properly framed doorway opening. Because these doors are load-bearing and precision balanced, solid framing is critical for long-term performance.
We recommend installation into a framed opening with solid wood studs or engineered framing on both sides of the opening. Doors should not be installed into metal studs or unsupported drywall.
While many customers choose professional installation, experienced DIYers with framing and finish carpentry experience can successfully install our doors. For best results, carefully review the installation guide before ordering or contact our team with questions about your specific opening.
Every Single Bookcase Hidden Door is built using solid hardwood construction — not MDF, particle board, or hollow-core materials.
Real wood provides superior strength, better screw-holding capability, and long-term durability, especially in load-bearing applications like bookcase doors.
This construction method ensures the door remains aligned, smooth-operating, and visually consistent over time, even when fully loaded with books and shelving.
All of our bookcase doors are built to order, not mass-produced. Because each door is handcrafted and configured for your specific opening, production lead times can vary based on size, finish, and current shop volume.
Typical lead times are provided at the time of order and should be considered estimates, not guarantees. This allows us to maintain quality, proper curing times for finishes, and careful final assembly.
If you have a specific deadline or project timeline, we encourage you to contact us before ordering so we can help determine the best path forward.
