Get it installed when he's out - add some price labels to the racks and tell him you've started a business.

Buy the wine first, then you'll need somewhere to keep it ...

That's a splendid idea. I'll have to buy a fair amount though...
Young un would love it am sure.
12 cases and a few singletons, I reckon ...
Only stores 300 bottles plus:-( That wouldn't be enough room would it LCG? Need to make it bigger perhaps.

I'm not sure it's the little one's bag, Mamya.

I wouldn’t bother. Too much dusting - and a haven for spiders. :o/
-- answer removed --
Four thousand five hundred pounds. OK, but how much is the staircase?
Question Author
If I even mention this idea he has kittens. He's had the new fusebox put under the stairs and reckons it would cost a small fortune to move it. :-(

Nice but do you have a cellar as you should have better temperature control down there - under the stairs will be too warm (unless there's some sort of temperature control system).
Question Author
No, DT, no cellar in this house.

I believe these things do come with temp controls.
£4,500 ! You must be mad.
Question Author
Andres, it's never going to happen. A girl can dream though, can't she?
Why not buy something like this.I am sure it would be easier to convince your OH that it is a good idea.
Maybe you could build a mini cellar instead...it might be cheaper ;)
I suppose you have to consider the priorities - husband? or Wine?
Also, unless your hall is pretty cold, not ideal temperature for storing wine for any period of time (depends how quickly you drink it I suppose!)

I've got one of those in the new kitchen island, Danny.

I know, Pasta, but I was going to sell one of OH's kidneys to fund it ;-)
