It’s an awesome tutorial with tons of detail. Appreciate the insight and your excellent instructions on what you built as well. To build this hidden bookshelf, Heather followed this YouTube tutorial.
HIDDEN BOOKCASE DOOR BLUEPRINTS HOW TO
I was down to the part of putting the inner bookcase shell into the frame and trying to figure out how to hold it there solidly without having something like bolts that would show (anchors I found at home centers didn't work out very well in my tests in scrap material so I gave up that route). With the shelf piece cut, were ready to assemble the shelf box.
At any rate, I'm in the middle of building one based on what you documented and wasn't sure until now how the attachment to the frame went - I haven't worked with metal much (the welding was a bit of a stretch and new thing for me =) so wasn't aware that metal screws would be able to thread into the square tubing to hold well. Thanks for the information regarding attachment (apologize I had to send this as a new comment rather than as a reply to your response, as the website keeps telling me to type the two words even though I already did so and only recognized that when I posted this as a new comment).

Whether the goal is a wine room entrance, a home theater passageway, or a secret vault door, Creative Home Engineering will achieve it. I also had to slightly round the horizontal pieces to slip underneath smoothly. Whether a bookcase door, a lifting staircase or a revolving fireplace our team has crafted it. The 4.5 inch trim left and right of the shelf-door, the right side is fixed to the fixed shelf, the left side moves with the door.I had to bevel notches in the trim on the right because the horizontal trim dives under it as the door opens. I used a credit card for gaps between trim and crown to allow clearance. Then I built the two side shelves and installed trim all around.

( If I did this again I would bring all the shelves out from the wall, making all full depth. In my design I made the swinging shelf 2 inch shallower than the other shelves to allow clearance behind it for the arc when it swung.

Into the installed frame I built the first shelf box for the swinging shelf and verified clearance.
