I've been working on a cool little build, with tons of little secret piston doors, and ive tried my best to make one myself but its really hard. I decided id ask the forums to see if anyone had a design/tutorial on how to make one.

Like the above poster, I am unclear as to your goal; posting a picture of the non-functioning closed door (and including some indication of where and how much space is available to bulid the mechanism) might help viewers understand the request.
One issue is whether you want bars in a stone wall
B = bars, C= Ceiling, F = floor, S = stone wall

or bars in a wall of bars
B = moving bars / door

WARNING: I have an extemely "grindy" playstyle; YMMV — if this doesn't seem fun to you, mine what you can from it & bin the rest.
I made 2 double piston extenders, both vertically going up and down, with just simple pistons to make it seamless. the pistons would open, the extender would spit the bar out, and the the pistons would close the timing was the hardest part, because the piston extenders opened at different speeds, but i managed to figure out the timing. Double piston extenders these days are like 2 pieces of redstone and observers, so its really easy to make cool doors with little redstone knowledge.

I already figured it out myself
