I wanted to get your opinions of embedded the panel into the wall such that the front is flush with the drywall.
My panel is in my attached garage and embedded into the wall cavity like this and sometime after the garage was built, the inside was finished with drywall, baseboard, and crown molding (more pretty than functional - pics attached). I need to run a few new circuits into this from the top and this happens to be on an external wall where the rafters are at their shortest height making drilling down into the wall cavity a joy.
I'm contemplating opening up at least this area around the panels to make it more functional since I'll have to cut some access holes to run the new lines, so I'm wondering what ways you would normally make the panel area "pretty" while keeping it accessible for new circuits.
