Sorry about the stupid ending. I think I spent more time playing around with the video editing than I should have!
Nice Stranger Things vibe and well done on the door.
navy2af You know it! Glad you got that!
That wasn't stranger things... it was Evil Dead... :) Nice door!
Yeah... would have been nice to see you using the hatch... doesn't look big enough.
Thumbnail is bad
Greetings from Australia. Just about to build a trapdoor from a room in my house to the underground cellar. Currently the entrance is a door from outside the house that is quite low and then down stairs to a wine cellar with 2.7 M ceiling. Thanks for posting. I don't understand why 120 people have down-voted your excellent video. An up-vote from me.
Ha, I know. For whatever reason some people don’t appreciate my humor, I guess. Thanks for the kind words!
Extremely similar project here in SW US. good size cellar, with a weird outside door that looks terrible on the side of the house also. Planning to do a door VERY much like this one in the room over it. Same room doesn't have a closet or bathroom yet either, so I have some freedom for layout and placement I suppose, but I will also be relying on the width of the joists. Not much I can do about that.
So what do you do, just hop down into the basement? Did you affix a ladder? Stairs? I stumbled upon your video because I am interested in closing up one hole in the floor crawl space access and creating another elsewhere in the house.
Ha you got me at the end mate. Nice job on the door.
Hahahahaha Don't be sorry for the ending... I loved it!
Ha! I’m glad you loved it.
That thing in the cellar is not my mother!
Excellent work, sarge. Thanks for the inspiration.
Awesome door! Semper Fi brother
That's one way to keep wife and kids out of your workshop!
Nice work and video!
Couldn't find the link or list of hardware you used. Are they soss hinges or some other brand of hidden hinge?
Sgt, this is Captain Alistair Kirk, veteran of the Royal Marines, 43 Commando Fleet.
I was looking for a way of creating a trapdoor in my shed, to allow easy access to a sewer drain, situated right beneath my shed, in case it ever got blocked. Watched your video gave me some great ideas. But, yeah that ending was unnecessary, I nearly shit my pants mate...😂😂😂
I am planning to have a small ‘safe’ room under my small house (224 sqft). I was wondering how to hide the trapdoor, and your cupboard idea is excellent! 👍 🇵🇰❤️🇵🇰
I used 1980s Cadillac hinges ,one that lifts up and then pulls away. 1950s and sixties hinges should work. I was able to flush mount them to the bottom to keep them hidden
Cool door. I know an old neighborhood that has a lot of houses that could use something like this. Why did you make the lift ring off center?
SgtDonovan, could you respond to the questions about the hinges? Great video, ending was hilarious.
Wonderful!!!! You created the trap door between the joists? -- what were the final dimensions?
A thought for the part of the ladder that is most difficult (the topover) is to have a pull out extension to operate as a handrail on one side. Could be something as simple as a pipe in a pipe. Doesn't need to be overly complicated to still make a huge difference in ease of access. Heck, could even use a heavy duty drawer slide with a wood support, and a wood rail. The ideas are pretty endless. I even thought of a mini elevator with some linear actuators hahaha. Then I technically wouldn't even need hinges or anything. Just drop it straight down. Really pulleys and some synthetic rope would work better... still. so many things one could do. That'd be way to slow obviously for only 7 feet of travel, and then needs manual redundancy or disconnect for power and mechanical failures.
I Jumped when I saw the monster !!!! I was waiting to see what stairs you had put in. SCARY. What did you do for stairs anyway?
What type of hinges did you use?
What type of hinges are those ? No link in description
Antonio Martinez it’s there now
great video... L may have missed it... but how large is the opening?
That is a very creepy end to an excellent video
Where can I find a flush hatch pull the I can get 4 fingers in, not just 1 that you have? I have a similar project and I've looked on line and called but can't find what I need....
I can't keep my mind off evil Dead after seeing this
How big is the space btw joists that you could do this
What kind of concealed hinges did you use?
Hilarious! I tell my husband there's a little girl who lives in our dank 1890s cellar - it creeps him out. :D I'm going to send him this video. Did you build stairs or do you use a ladder to get up and down?
What did u put in before u sanded the last time?
My husband is not handy would come and build one for us? lol great job, it looks amazing.
Heavonlea Im sure that comment made your husbands day. Smh
I’m in need of something similar but I know my vision won’t be as easy as this. Is there a way to email you for questions? I’d like to send a picture to explain what Im trying to do.
Yes.. there is an email link on my website listed in the description
Hi, I am also wondering what hinges you used. Thanks.
I have a similar project this. Wonderful idea. However that demon ending in video wasn't cute.
Thanks?
Great job! Ending was very cool!!!
0:34 where did you build that?
Hey dude jump scare was cute but I was watching this with my son (planning a trap door for his treehoyse) and this scared the stuff outta him. :(
OMG the ending was not what I expected! Geez man! Great video though - this helped w my project.
H
Great videos, man. I see you haven't uploaded in a while -- I hope all is okay and it's just TH-cam burnout or whatever :)
I spent the last year or so traveling with the family in an RV. I'm back!
@@SgtDonovan sounds like a great trip
I loved the end 😂😂😂😅 i don't want a house with crawl space anymore 🫤
😎yay yay iam i. am. so so exited about this dumb vido so so cute cute??😎
Excellent video. The music is horrible.
Stupid ending. How about showing us how you actually use it, or do you just dive headfirst to the concrete floor below?
Ok
@@SgtDonovan Seriously, I sat through the video with anticipation of seeing it "in action". I "liked" several of your other videos, you do good work. Thank you for your service. (25-year LEO - Florida Highway Patrol - retired)
Aaaaaand that made me not want to build one.... 🤣🤣🤣
Nice work but now my kid is traumatized by that ending. Thx dude 👎 this vid needs a warning at the beginning
Yep. My 7 yr old kid and I wanted to do a door into the basement from a coat closet. Now he hasn’t stopped crying for an hour.
Woodglut plans are amazing!
Isaac, trembling in fear, found a trap Door to the basement hidden under his rug, isaac without hesitation flung open the hatch, just as his mother burst though his Door, isaac jump down, into the unknown depths... Below...only tboi fans will understand
Ha ha ha
I have never left a hate comment but this deserve it, the ending is absolutely not okay. Not cool at all. Not funny.
🙄
bro’s mad because he peed his pants
Very brilliant I like it❤️👍👍🤣🤣🤣👈🏻
