Why not? Where did you put your IR sensor? Tbh, my remote didn't arrive yet, so I just did this blindly.You did hall for IR ? It's not necessary to make some window for IR in the wood case.

IR sensor can be placed just behind the front panel w/o hole. Remote work perfect,
I did hole in my first projects but it's not necessary.
Moreover, front panel w/o holes looks more stylish (my own opinion).

Could you please explain how IR remote operates through the wood?
You can try it.
Even though I knew the result, I just tried it to make sure🙂
Wood - dielectric and this is all explanation. 🙂
Who told you dielectric help to transmit signal?
It doesn't prevent a signal from coming through.

So you are saying that wood is transparent for the spectrum of the infrared light used in remote controls?

It was your achievement 😀
You can propose any version as per your imagination ... but it's work w/o hall.

IR normally does not pass through the wood. Maybe you have a parasitic passage of reflected beams through some other opening in your construction. Put a remote in completely closed wooden box and see if it works that way.
Scientific literature reports that IR light penetration depth into wood is limited to some micrometers... So I totally agree with zdr. If you don't have direct or indirect (through a reflection) visibility from the source to the receiver, IR remote control will not work.
