Made-to-Measure Understairs Storage in Bournemouth, Dorset

The space beneath your stairs is often overlooked—but with a little thought and skilled craftsmanship, it can be transformed into practical, stylish storage. At Drummond Joinery, we design and build made-to-measure understairs storage for homes across Bournemouth and the surrounding areas of Dorset, helping homeowners make the most of every square inch.

Whether you need somewhere to store shoes, coats, cleaning supplies or just want a tidier hallway, we can create a solution that’s both functional and beautifully finished.

Why Invest in Custom Understairs Storage?

Every home is different, and off-the-shelf storage options rarely make full use of the sloped space beneath a staircase. With a bespoke joinery solution, your understairs area can become a seamless part of your home, built to fit your lifestyle and aesthetic.

Benefits of bespoke understairs storage:

• Maximises awkward spaces - Tailored to the exact dimensions of your stairs

• Reduces hallway clutter - Perfect for shoes, coats, vacuums, and everyday essentials

• Improves organisation - Add drawers, cupboards, shelving or pull-out units

• Enhances property value - Custom built-ins appeal to future buyers

• Blends with your interior - Choose finishes, handles, and styles that match your décor

We’ve worked with a wide range of property types in and around Bournemouth, from Edwardian semis in Charminster to new builds near Southbourne.
