(if thats what they are called) [/quote] I am going to make a built in “bookshelf” with hinges on one side and a caster hidden underneath it, so it can open like a door, but doesn’t look like the typical access panel to allow access to that space, but I really don’t need it. I have a full basement, and just put a ceiling in my garage that actually adds a lot of access. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v79/x_iliohan/Mehhouse003.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/d/c/dc8678e228d13a202d09c766dad978c26cfbd2f2.jpeg) X… ---
