Smart Storage Solutions for Under the Stairs


At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we transform unused under-stairs spaces into practical storage solutions that maximise every centimetre of available space. Our custom-designed storage systems combine functionality with elegant design to create valuable storage areas in your home.


Innovative Design Options


We craft pull-out drawers, shelving units, and cabinets specifically sized to fit your staircase's unique dimensions. Our modular storage systems include adjustable shelving for flexible storage options. Each design incorporates smart features like soft-close mechanisms and push-to-open hardware for seamless access to stored items. We create specialised compartments for specific storage needs, from wine racks to shoe storage, or dedicated spaces for sporting equipment and seasonal items. Houzz Australia’s Renovation Roundup found that over 60% of Sydney homeowners now prioritise integrated storage solutions, with under-stair designs among the most requested custom joinery features.


High-Quality Materials and Craftsmanship


We select premium materials including moisture-resistant MDF, solid timber, and high-grade laminates to ensure durability and longevity. Our craftsmen use precision joinery techniques and top-tier hardware to create robust storage solutions that withstand daily use. Each component receives multiple quality checks throughout the manufacturing process, guaranteeing exceptional finish quality and structural integrity.


Seamless Integration with Existing Interiors


We match your home's existing colour schemes and architectural style through our extensive range of finishes and materials. Our designs incorporate existing skirting boards and architectural features to create a built-in appearance that looks original to your home. We carefully consider lighting requirements and can integrate LED strips or spotlights to illuminate your storage space effectively.


Custom Cabinets Built Under Stairs


Our team specialises in building custom under stairs cabinets that maximise storage while maintaining a seamless look. Whether you need cupboards for shoes and coats, drawers for kids’ toys, or enclosed cabinets under the stairs for household essentials, we design each unit to fit the exact angles and dimensions of your staircase. Built-in doors and panels can be matched to your existing interiors, creating the appearance of a natural extension of your home. By integrating adjustable shelving, hanging rails, or concealed compartments, our under-stairs cabinets provide versatile and secure storage solutions tailored to your lifestyle.

Recent Under Stairs Storage Testimonials from Sydney Homeowners

Our Neutral Bay home always felt short on storage, but Sydney Cabinet Makers solved it with sleek under stairs cabinets. They designed cupboards for coats and hidden drawers for shoes that blend seamlessly with our hallway. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and the space feels so much more organised now.

We asked Sydney Cabinet Makers to create storage under the stairs in our Randwick terrace. The result is incredible — pull-out drawers for kids’ school bags and a concealed wine rack. It’s practical yet stylish, and the cabinets look like they were part of the original house design.

Our under stairs area in Penshurst was wasted space until Sydney Cabinet Makers transformed it. They built enclosed cabinets for seasonal items and a pull-out hamper system.
