  In this paper, we prove that the lower triangular matrix category $\Lambda
=\left [ \begin{smallmatrix} \mathcal{T}&0\\ M&\mathcal{U} \end{smallmatrix}
\right ]$, where $\mathcal{T}$ and $\mathcal{U}$ are quasi-hereditary
$\mathrm{Hom}$-finite Krull-Schmidt $K$-categories and $M$ is a $\mathcal
U\otimes_K \mathcal T^{op}$-module that satisfies suitable conditions, is
quasi-hereditary in the sense of \cite{LGOS1} and \cite{Martin}. Moreover, we
solve the problem of finding quotients of path categories isomorphic to the
lower triangular matrix category $\Lambda$, where $\mathcal T=K\mathcal{R/J}$
and $\mathcal U=K\mathcal{Q/I}$ are path categories of infinity quivers modulo
admissible ideals. Finally, we study the case where $\Lambda$ is a path
category of a quiver $Q$ with relations and $\mathcal U$ is the full additive
subcategory of $\Lambda$ obtained by deleting a source vertex $*$ in $Q$ and
$\mathcal T=\mathrm{add} \{*\}$. We then show that there exists an adjoint pair
of functors $(\mathcal R, \mathcal E)$ between the functor categories
$\mathrm{mod} \ \Lambda$ and $\mathrm{mod} \ \mathcal U$ that preserve
orthogonality and exceptionality; see \cite{Assem1}. We then give some examples
of how to extend classical tilting subcategories of $\mathcal U$-modules to
classical tilting subcategories of $\Lambda$-modules.
