Open your door as wide as possible and measure the distance between the outer edge of the door to the inner edge of your doorframe at its narrowest point. Compare the width of your doorframe with the height of your sofa allowing some wiggle room either side. This will determine if we can take the sofa through on its side. If the door width is greater than the height of your sofa, then it will fit through.

Doorway
Measure the Height (H) and Width (W) of your door.
Make the path around the doorway is clear and unobstructed.
Consider any fixtures and fittings and immovable objects such as gas meters and radiators.
Measuring the diagonal depth (DD) of the sofa will help you to understand whether it will go through the door at an angle. From the side of the sofa, measure from the top left or right corner of armrest to the opposite bottom corner.
To get your sofa through the doorway it may help to place the sofa on one end and twist the sofa into the doorway seat first.
Hallway
Measure the length between the door and interior wall to ensure there is enough room to manoeuvre the sofa into the desired room. You may need to stand the sofa on its end or twist it into the doorway.
Stairwell
Measure the height (H), width (W) and depth (D) of the stairwell to allow turning on the stairs.
Please note that different floors may have different stairwell heights and note if there are any doors or turns in the stairwell.
Lift
Measure the height and width of the lift door and the dimensions inside the lift, including the diagonal height from the bottom front to the top back, in case the sofa needs to fit into the lift at an angle.
