Hello everyone,
We would like to separate the space under the staircase with a door or an opening. Since the area will be used for storage and won’t be accessed very often, the "door" does not need to be easy or quick to open. It is more important that the door remains unnoticed.
Do you have any ideas on how to achieve this? My current idea is to install a drywall partition, but instead of screwing it in firmly, I would attach it to the studs using magnets. I would leave a small hole in one corner so the panel can be released with a finger.

The railing on the right is a steel structure covered with drywall.
