That is Pretty Slick, But why not Key the lock to the RFID Chip, the Government implanted in you when you got you State Mandated Inoculation shots as a kid ?then you'd never loose your RFID Key ! “just implant the chip into your dog. then use the dog to open the door.”

I have used them before in past projects but never for something requiring an absolute position. It seems after a while the box would at best move and not be able to open the door, or at worst fall off the mirror completely... That being said, nice project!

You'd have to take into affect with slack, but I'm sure there's ways around it.
