Anyone purchase those pre cast steps, to be used as a basement
entrance?

do they come with a drain built into the bottom step?

I dont want the steps to be covered!

the perspective basement entrance is the only window to the basement.
the other window is covered by a deck.

I am thinking of changing the window into a door, adding steps, and
using this for direct access from basement to back yard.

so me and the dogs can live in the basement while the hardwood floors
are refinished......

the advantage is a nice leftover permanent direct access between
basement and back yard.....

I have been told the basement could then be called a bedroom,
increasing home value at resale time..

fire ingress egress....

opinions on this? anyone do this? I have another discussion about
floor refinishing
