Behind a wall is entirely possible. we had a contractor come in at my
former job, and put up a new wall, they were supposed to put a door in
another wall (we were partitioning off part of our datacenter.) they put
the wall up allright, but didn't put the door into the other wall first, so
come monday morning we went to get at the 60 machines in that part of the
datacenter.... and we couldn't...
