Level wall with metal studs

[Gårdsboende]

Today I have a 45x70 stud wall in my bathroom, and I need to extend it to 45x95 to make space for a distribution cabinet. The wall consists of metal studs, and my plan is to place a 45x95 wooden stud next to the metal studs to extend the wall and attach them to the existing metal studs. I will need some "L" profile at the floor and ceiling that slides under/against the new stud to create a new ceiling/floor stud. The question is whether there are ready-made L-profiles to buy and what they are called in the construction trade?

Does anyone have any other ideas?

I can't/won't tear down the existing wall straight through as the opposite side of the bathroom is part of the hallway, and there is a staircase to the upper floor there.

Can't you just add a 45x45 to your existing 70 studs? Alternatively, some thinner lath. There are ones that are 25x50.

Edit: just saw that the existing ones were metal studs. Never worked with those before so not sure if my suggestion works.

It could work with something thinner, but putting on a 45×45 takes up too much space, a fairly small bathroom where all the space is needed.

is it something like this you want https://www.bauhaus.se/norgips-vinkelprofil-lp-50-50

Check out something like battens 25x50.

Common sparse panel 28 mm?

I thank you humbly for all the answers!

It turned out that only the corner where the ventilation goes today was framed with metal studs, the rest was wood, so it was solved smoothly.

I will cut some 45×45 studs to 25×45 and glue and screw them on. Had a whole bunch lying around from some construction.

Thanks to everyone for your ideas.

If it's only the distributor cabinet that requires the greater depth, why build out the entire wall in the small room?

opposite side of the bathroom is part of the hallway and there is a staircase to the upper floor

If the placement of the distributor cabinet fits with the location of the stairs, maybe it would be possible to build out on the other side of the wall under the stairs instead?

I understand how you're thinking, but that wall is both wallpapered and finished. The one who decides doesn't want to wallpaper it again.
If I lived alone, that wall would also have been torn down, but oh well....

Understood.
I thought there might have been a little "invisible" corner right under the beginning of the stairs.
But what do you say about just extending there where the manifold is supposed to be?

The distributor should sit right there, she still wants to be able to place things against a smooth wall, sometimes life is hard on me.
