denying access to sub folder by its real name using htaccess

i want to deny the user to acces the subfolder by its real name : the real name is "folder1" i want it to be accessed by an other name "test" i already done that using this : 

RewriteRule ^(test/)(.*)$ /folder1/$2 [L]

it works fine but it still can be accessed by its real name (site.com/folder1) i already added this after the previous line :

RewriteRule ^(.*)(\/)(.*)$ error.php [L]

wich redirect any the user if he uses anything instead of the "test" but it also let him access it if he uses "folder1".

please some help.

Just turn off indexing on your site.

Add this to the top of you .htaccess file.

 Options -Indexes
 ErrorDocument 403 /
