It would not affect headroom no, my main concern is how I would tie into the joists in the box room to provide support. I was thinking I should be able to access the joists through the bulkhead and put some sort of joist hanger there.

Drilled through into the garage, fused spur at the bottom of the stairs through to another socket in the garage where the lights are plugged in to.
