He and his wife had recently moved into a new home they had built just to their liking. The cool thing was the panic room's location. After moseying around the three story home, my brother pointed out a small nook in the bottom floor. I then watched him shift the wall paneling to reveal a steel door. He punched in a code on the small keypad and the heavy door unlocked. I was in awe of the hidden panic room. Not only could you lock yourself in this secure environment, but there was actually a wall to conceal it.
