Under stairs storage in Drogheda, made to fit the angle

Sound familiar?
The space under your staircase is a jumble of shoes, bags, and the hoover — or it's boxed in and doing nothing at all. Either way, it's wasted.
Coats over the banister, shoes by the door, nowhere to put the everyday clutter. You need proper storage right where the mess happens.
Ready-made cupboards are square, but the space under your stairs is a slope. Standard units leave gaps and never use the full depth.
You've seen under stairs drawers that blend into the hallway and want the same seamless, made-for-the-house finish — not a flat-pack workaround.

What's included
From first sketch to the final drawer
Under stairs storage is fitted furniture for an awkward space. Here's what the job covers when we take it on.
- Full home measure and design. We measure the angle and depth of the space properly, plan a layout around what you need to store, and give you a clear design with a fixed, itemised quote.
- Made-to-measure drawers and cupboards. Every unit is built in the workshop to the exact slope of your staircase — using the full triangular depth, not just the front.
- Pull-out drawers on quality runners. Deep drawers for shoes, coats, and clutter, on smooth soft-close runners that cope with daily use.
- Cupboards and shelving. Tall cupboards for the hoover or ironing board, plus open shelving for books or display where the ceiling drops.
- Materials and finishes. Hardwoods like oak or ash, or paintable boards for a sprayed finish in any colour to match your hall, with handles in brass, black, or stainless.
- Tidy install and walkthrough. Floors and stairs protected, everything levelled and adjusted, and a final check of every drawer and door with you before we leave.

Common questions
Questions about under stairs storage
Most under stairs storage we build in Drogheda and East Meath costs between €1,500 and €5,000 supplied and fitted, depending on whether you want pull-out drawers, cupboards, or a mix, the size of the space, and the finish you choose. That is a realistic frame rather than a fixed price — every job is priced individually after a free home measure, and you get an itemised quote before anything is built.
We handle the full job — design, build, and installation. Every drawer and cupboard is made in the workshop to the exact angle of your staircase, then fitted on site. You deal with one carpenter from first measure to final fit.
The most popular options are pull-out drawers for shoes, coats, and cleaning kit, a tall cupboard for the hoover or ironing board, and open shelving for books or a small home bar. Many Drogheda homes combine a mix — deep drawers at the tall end, a cupboard in the middle, and a display shelf where the ceiling drops. Because everything is made to the angle of your stairs, we use the full triangular space rather than just the front.
Under stairs storage in Drogheda typically takes one to two weeks from measure to install. The drawers and cupboards are built in the workshop, so the on-site fit is usually a single day. You'll have a firm install date before the build starts.
Under stairs units can be built in hardwoods like oak or ash, or in high-grade paintable boards for a sprayed finish in any colour to match your hall. Drawer fronts and doors can be plain or panelled, with soft-close runners and hinges as standard and handles in brass, black, or stainless finishes. Interiors are durable melamine or timber veneer.
Day to day, a soft damp cloth is all the doors and drawer fronts need — avoid abrasive pads and bleach-based sprays. Painted finishes can be wiped clean the same way, and small knocks can be touched in with matching paint. At handover we leave you with specific care advice for the exact materials and finishes used in your storage.
