==Description==
<ref name="dmg5e24.64">{{Cite Pub|Dungeon Master's Guide (5e24)|pages=64}} Licenced: &copy; Wizards of the Coast (fair Use, summary).</ref> A '''secret door''' is a door made to appear as the surface it it placed in. I.e. A wall, a bookcase, the bark of a tree, etc. It is in effect {{5e24lc|Hidden}}.

To find a secret door, a {{5e24lc|Creature}} may use a {{5e24|Search}} {{5e24lc|Action}} utilizing either {{5e24|Perception}} or {{5e24|Investigation}}. The {{5e24|DC}} of the search is set by the {{5e24|GM}} (Suggested DCs are on page 64 of the {{pub|Dungeon Master's Guide (5e24)}}).

==Searching for a Secret Door==
<ref name="srd52.12">{{Cite Pub|SRD 5.2|pages=12}} Licensed: [[CC-BY]].</ref> When your {{5e24lc|Character}} searches for {{5e24lc|Hidden}} things, such as a '''secret door''' or a {{5e24lc|Trap}}, the {{5e24|GM}} typically asks you to make a {{5e24|Wisdom}} ({{5e24|Perception}}) {{5e24lc|Check}}, provided you describe the character searching in the hidden {{5e24lc|Object}}’s vicinity. On a success, you find the object, other important details, or both.

If you describe your character searching nowhere near a hidden object, a Wisdom (Perception) check won’t reveal the object, no matter the check’s total.
