Yep, that would apply in the context ecchi used it. I also saw that the history of the word goes to the time of trench warfare, when it was dug out of the sides of a trench with the earth shored up with wood and the roof often lined with corrugated iron. The men would use the bolt hole for protection, eating and sleeping.

In another context, this would also be a bolt hole...
