There is actually some humor in this. I'm thinking of HOA communities that specify square footage, number of floors and style of homes that can be built there, where they will be built, width of trees that can come down, width of trees that need special permission, what color the house will be, how long it can take to be built, whether garages can be separate or integral, whether the house must face the street....but never thought to regulate that every house should have a front door!
A door is a door, is a door- whether you can "see" it or not. However, in case of fire and fireman may not find much "humor" in it!

Meh.
Unless they never ever have anyone over, plenty of people will know about the "secret" front door. Even people driving or walking by can catch someone using it.
you'll see in YT version that square houses the electronic keypad. The remote the women uses is part of the entry keypad. There is a regular exterior door under they camo.
I dont see where they say this is the main front door. In fact looking at it this looks like the back of the house and I wonder if its even an full entry. in the YT version when showing from inside the walls are unfinished. Maybe this is an add-on garden shed?
We have a split level with a bonus basement under the Kitchen/LR level. I say "bonus" as its the first time I've seen this. We are remodeling and where the door is located I've been thinking it would be cool to make the door a bookcase.... originally had the idea for the wet bar area and it wouldve worked cool to have a wetbar appear, but then we decided to open up the side wall even more so it killed that idea.
Interesting, homes around here, (Princeton, NJ) many have hidden walls, doors, stairways and some even have tunnels from their basements to the woods, most of the hidden spaces pre date back to and we're built during or just after the Continental Army pushed back the British Army during the Revolution War. The preppers could learn a thing or two from our ancestors.
In one of the last houses I lived in, the original owner put in a hidden door in the laundry room, which opened into a room about 20x20 feet, with insulated walls, concrete floor with drain, plumbed with water, a fair amount of electrical supply, and vents up to the roof... didn't take too long to figure out why he built that....
About the real front door vs the secret door....it would be funny but defeating the purpose of subterfuge is there were no real front door. That way the secret door, perhaps to a secret area would be all the more inconspicuous and not even searched for by outsiders.
After this video, though, one would need to think of a different entry than the water spigot.
