Concealed wall section
A hidden panel is a concealed section in a wall, floor, or piece of furniture that opens to reveal a secret compartment or passageway.
Hidden panels appear in old houses, spy fiction, and escape rooms: She pressed the bookshelf and a hidden panel swung open.
The term extends to software interfaces where a panel of options or tools remains invisible until activated by a specific gesture or click.
