About the Item

An unusual set of secret library bookcase double doors. Utilisable in several ways, these reclaimed double doors are perfect for disguising the entrance to a hidden cupboard or a playful way to conceal the entrance to a games room or snug! The imitation books have faux leather spines, each inscribed with various volumes of classical novels and reference books. Though they are little short for use as internal doors, these secret bookcase doors can be easily adapted, increasing the height by adding skirting or cornice or by backing them onto taller doors. However they are used, these unique doors are certain to add interest and intrigue to any setting, becoming the talking point of a room – that’s if anybody spots them…
