Hello!
I am building an additional room, and the door will be at an angle. I am now pondering how best to address the gap that arises between the studs when it’s angled. I assume I need something in there to be able to screw in OSB/drywall? In the picture, I have only placed two OSB spacers to illustrate how it looks. I plan to use an edge strip on the outer corner of the drywall later, but I probably need to solve this "cavity" first. A 45x45 quarter round doesn't fit. Grateful for tips.

What are the dimensions of the hole?
What I mostly thought about was whether it could be some form of shelves there, maybe made of glass, with a spotlight in the ceiling shining straight down. Otherwise, you can install 3 corner moldings that might fit a bit awkwardly, but with long screws, it can be put together, and also have some corner list that is spackled in.

The easiest would probably have been to cut one of the studs into wedges before you mounted it.
I have the same problem as you, I have a plan for how to solve it but haven't gotten around to it yet. In my case, I can take a 45x95 and cut it to the same shape as you have on the table saw. The alternative is to start with a larger piece of wood and do the same thing, either myself or at a carpentry shop.

Can't these reglar be moved a bit then?
By the way, shouldn't the floor be cut loose? So that it can move.

Hi,
Thanks for the tips! Just wanted to say that I solved it in a pretty simple way and it turned out really well. I placed a triangular rule 45x45/2 at the innermost point and screwed it in. Then I screwed a 22x45 into it and cut it diagonally from one side along the rule with a reciprocating saw, probably works just as well with a handsaw. Finished off a bit with a planer. It took a total of an hour on both sides of the door. I've put the OSB in now and I think it turned out perfectly.
