Keep Valuables Hidden In Secret Compartments With Mission-Style End Tables

If you need a covert space to store your valuables, this simple concept involves mission-style end tables. By selecting a side table with secret compartments, you can hide your keepsakes somewhere completely unexpected. This solution is easily accessible to you yet misleading to any intruders. Mission-style tables are defined by their straight lines, 90-degree angles, and craftsman aesthetic. They have been a design staple since the turn of the 20^th century. There are several brands that offer mission-style end tables with the added bonus of concealment features.

You can choose to purchase or DIY your own mission-style end table. If you want to select the best nightstand for your bedroom with a hidden compartment, consider the Leick Home mission end table with a lockable secret drawer. For a more modern option, this Gyfimoie LED nightstand includes a concealed top compartment. If you want to create your own custom piece with safeguarded drawers or shelving, Qline Design offers the possibility to design bespoke furniture. Discover whether this unique storage solution is right for you.

A furniture piece with a concealed compartment is undoubtedly an easy way to make your home more secure. Tables and desks with hidden components are not new to the design industry. However, they are currently skyrocketing in the home security marketplace. Compared to hiding valuables in a secret storage compartment, a traditional safe can prevent you from accessing your valuables fast enough. In addition, fireproof safes are often broken into by thieves. If you still want to opt for a safe, you can incorporate the clandestine, built-in security technique by keeping your valuables protected in a DIY hidden wall safe.

If you want to try your hand at a DIY side table with a secret section, the process is fairly simple. Plus, this is a great way to reuse the end tables you already have. The easiest way to add a hidden space is to create a false bottom to one of your existing drawers. Make sure to cut a panel of plywood slightly smaller than the inside of your drawer. Then, drill a hole in one end of the panel and insert a small magnet into the hole. Voila! You can use another magnet to easily lift up the trap door-style piece. While it doesn't lock, it is a great way to sneakily hide extra cash and other small belongings.
