hidden door

Camouflaged entry point

A hidden door is a door designed to be unnoticeable, typically disguised as part of a wall, bookcase, or other architectural feature.

Hidden doors appear in old mansions, spy movies, and escape rooms, often concealing secret passages or rooms: She pulled a book and the hidden door swung open.

The term extends to any concealed entrance or access point.
