-Biometric Figerprint Door Lock is the
Shepherd DL 210 and I found it on eBay.

I did the majority of the work myself. The Theater is double drywalled with two sheets of 5/8" drywall with Green Glue http://www.greengluecompany.com between each sheet of drywall and insulation stuffed in all the walls and ceiling. All the walls and the ceiling are isolated using products from http://www.pac-intl.com The front stage is completely filled with sand and I use a Biometric Fingerprint Door Lock for access to the Theater.

Thanks for viewing!

The song is 'The Beginning Is The End Is The Beginning' by The Smashing Pumpkins.

If you like it go buy it!!

Amazon MP3, no DRM: http://tinyurl.com/56mwb3

It is the same song used in the Watchmen trailer but not the same version, the song was originally on the soundtrack for Batman and Robin.

  • damn, i wish i had construction knowledge. where would i start?

  • @kingkongwong007 avsforum.com is a great place to start.

  • hey man where did you get that finger print door lock

    

  • @fightnight3421 eBay

  • Nice set up. My theater is finished now too. I must admit, I stole my Biometric lock idea from your theater. Check mine out if you get a chance, under my channel or go to Bryan's completed home theater. Again, great theater; you did a great job.

  • @golfing22002 Very nice, love the setup!

  • Very Nice, I guese u have a bad ass surround sound, what subwoofer have you got ?

  • How much did all this cost you?

  • You had to put that song?

  • @caleorama thanks! btw, did you have previous knowledge of installing dry wall and lights? dry wall seems manageable for me but the lighting, wiring (basically all things electric) seem like daunting tasks.

  • @ballinonabudget of course it is, imagine watching HD porn on that screen

  • and then he had kids

    lol
