Help! Subpanel install woes...

Posted by Steve Parry on February 22, 2007 at 15:42:34:
Well after over three years I am finally installing the dedicated subpanel and lines in my listening room. Only problem is the panel will not fit because my builders did not use 2x4's for framing, but ripped something larger down to "size". As a result the space is not deep enough by about a fourth of an inch. On the other side is my bedroom wall.
Any pro suggestions (besides framing out the panel, which I am trying to avoid) to solve this problem? We thought of cutting some of the wallboard nails that go into the frame from the inside of the wallboard, so it could give a bit. Could also carefully hollow out the wallboard behind it, but the paper backing adds a lot of the strength to gypsum wallboard (at least the panel will be there though).
Any "been there, did this..." help greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Steve
