US Patent 7726080 Under-floor storage

An under-floor storage system provides extra storage space, and is intended for use in locations where tile floors are normally used, such as in kitchens and in bathrooms. The storage system provides for tiles that are the lids of sub-floor storage containers. In one embodiment, the removed tile lid provides access to the storage compartment. In another embodiment, the lid and the storage compartment are integral in normal configuration, but can be separated once removed from the floor.
