securing a room

I was inspired to post this by this thread (http://www.uer.ca/forum_showthread.asp?fid=1&threadid=10739), but this is a somewhat different idea, one that I've had for some time: how difficult would it be to secure and spruce up a room in an abandoned structure? I'm thinking of a place one could use as a hang-out spot or, if necessary, a crash pad. It would have to have a very secure door, of course, and electricity and an internet connection would be nice luxuries.

Has anyone here done anything like this?

Thought about it seriously when I was younger. Problem is keeping people like us from finding it.



Yet another unoriginal generic UE website. GODDAM!

UE ethics violation? I'm sure the person owning it wouldn't apprieciate you moving in. If you lock it, it will cause vandals to break in. They'll probably steal your valuable stuff. READ: Not UE'rs taggers, etc. But if you get permission from the owner, like if the building is going to be torn down anyway, I'd conceal it as well as I can. In a dark basement, covered by a huge piece of drywall, for example.

hehe, pull a Dawn of the Dead and board up a hallway so no one even knows it's there anymore and the only way in is a rope ladder into the vents.

Sorry, but I'd rather sleep on a roof in a sleeping bag than on that matress. Actually, sleeping on a roof with a sleeping bag sounds quite fun.

I believe that would qualify you as a squatter.

as long as you rotated from site to site you should have no problem with vandals or theives or fellow UErs.

When there was an abandoned school in my area we boarded up one of the hallways and hung out in the classrooms on the other side. There was another way into these rooms, but only the four of us knew what it was. It was great until some stupid bastard started a fire that resulted in the demolition of the place.
