Under Stairs Litter Box Niche & Storage – Custom Built-In
This Austin homeowner had extra space under their stairs and a litter box situation that needed to be solved. They wanted their automatic litter robot tucked away but still accessible, with power for the unit and room for cat supplies. Best Austin Handyman turned that dead space into a purpose-built closet that does precisely what they needed.
The custom-built-in fits the angled wall perfectly and includes a cat-sized entry cut into the door panel. We added an electrical outlet inside for the litter robot and painted the interior in a dark color. The exterior matches the existing trim work, so it appears to have been part of the house’s original design.
Under-stair spaces get overlooked in many homes, but they’re perfect for projects like this. Now the litter box stays hidden, the cat has private access, and the homeowner reclaimed floor space elsewhere in the house.
