So our goal with this project was to increase our storage potential and create a more functional access point. Bernard started by removing the drywall on the inner wall, underneath our stairs. This revealed the studs and electrical wiring he first needed to address before the real work could begin. We did remove 2 studs that were determined to not be structural. As an added precaution, Bernard also reinforced the space by adding 3 &#8211; 2&#215;4 studs. One on each side and one at the top (header).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Please do your own research or have a professional assist you with determining if any studs are structural underneath your stairs, before removing them.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/04-06-2023-13-09-33-full.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5602\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3024\" height=\"4032\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/04-13-2023-16-45-42-full.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5604\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6021375135080120\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3858885546\"><\/ins>\r\n\t<script>\r\n         (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t<\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tool Used to Remove Drywall<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it came to removing the drywall for this project, Bernard had great success with an <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/oscillatingtool\">oscillating multi-tool<\/a><\/strong>.

This helped with creating that hidden drawer look we were going for. Our plan was to install the drawer doors over the baseboards which meant 3\/4 in. thick MDF trim wouldn&#8217;t be enough. So, Bernard glued 2-3\/4 in. MDF boards to create 1-1\/2 in. thick MDF trim for the stairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trickiest part of this stair trim was determining the appropriate cutting angle. We first used an angle finder to figure out the angle where the horizontal and diagonal trims would meet. We then plugged that number into a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omnicalculator.com\/construction\/miter-angle\" rel=\"nofollow\">miter angle calculator<\/a> and it gave us the exact angle we needed to make the 2 miter cuts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"https:\/\/neatlyliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/06-21-2023-18-12-20-full.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5638\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6021375135080120\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"3858885546\"><\/ins>\r\n\t<script>\r\n         (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t<\/script>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adding a Fresh Coat of Paint<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I decided to go with a simple, monochromatic look for the finished under-stairs storage.
