If you move & want your design wall to go with you...ask him to "fix it" so you can take it apart as you'd planned to. For anything hinged...ask for "Loose-pin" hinges. You just lift one side up, & it lifts off. Or use cheap standard door hinges, since the pin can be tapped out with a screwdriver in seconds. I am personally a fan of movable things, since we've moved so many times.
