I feel your pain Bubble.  My house was built in 1901.

I do stand corrected.  I was thinking relatively modern housing.

Old houses can be both a blessing and a curse.  There's no beating the high ceilings from the days when lumber over 8' long was standard, not premium.  And houses were bilt with balloon framing instead of platform framing... but I digress.  Architectural talk is for work.. my wife is always whipping me about that.

I like the ambiance in old houses with serving stairs; notoriously narrow like your basement.  But is does cause some modern headaches.

Oh... I am not sure he could not take it apart.
Split the cab, use angle iron  and wood planks on the inside of the seam. bolt together. fill with wood puddy and sand, wood puddy some more, sand again,
paint. I think it could be made very strong.

My 1st cab has angle iron and 2x4's as a shelf for my T.V. I think way over kill but I had it around at the time

I think this could be done......

The monitor shelf does not have to be split but could be removed from the cabinet

Instead of making it thinner why not make it small from front to back?

so u turn it on its side and its thin enough to move out of the basement but looks the full size width ways :)
