Nice clean work, well done

Very nice, and a great idea

Clever!

Great idea to make good use of the space under the stairs and well executed construction of these storage units.

Really nice. I remember my Father many years ago built a closet and drawers under their stairs to the basement. He had turned the basement into a rental unit and was trying to find room for everything…worked great.

Looks good both open and closed. Since they close up flush, do you reach under the bottom to pull them out or is there a hidden pull somewhere?

-- If you don't have time to do it right, do you have time to do it twice?

This is a great design. My wife already has this on my to-do list!
Thanks for posting,

I see it’s a tile floor which isn’t always perfectly flat. If I tried this with casters the tops and the joints would never line up perfectly. Did you run into this problem at all? If so, how did you remedy it?

Thanks everyone!

NoSlivers, My oringinal intent was to put handles on them. There was going to be one on the little one, two on the middle, and three on the highest. When my Mother-in-Law saw them he way you see them, she liked it and made me stop. She claims she wouldn’t have to go in there much so she could live with just pulling them from the bottom. I still think metal handles would be the way to go.

Sailor, I had to adjust the panels a little bit but I got lucky, the floor was just about perfectly level. I used 2” non- scuffing casters so they would roll over the tiled floor easily and not mark it up.

This is a great project to utilize the wasted space. I like that you made them so nice looking so they would not look out of place too.

Great idea!
