When buying new piece of furniture or larger piece of home decor, it’s essential to know that the item will fit well in the intended space and, even more importantly, that it will be able toÌýgetÌýto the intended space.

Here are the measurements you’ll need to start off:

• Height (H)
• Width (W)
• Depth (D)

To calculate whetherÌýa piece of furniture or large itemÌýwill fit through your door, you'll need to know your entryway's width andÌýheight.ÌýYou might need to also note the clearance (distance from the door to the next prominent obstacle e.g. wall, bannister) if the item is to enter a particularly tight area.

Furniture will not fit through a door if:

• The width of the item is greater than both the entryway clearance and height
• The entryway width is less than all three of these measurements: the item's height, depth and width

Great news. Your new furniture can fit through your door but, unless you plan to keep it there, you’ll need to check the dimensions of all hallways and doors along the delivery path. Here are some guidelines:

• Hallway width at narrowest point must be wider than the item's depth or height
• Internal door widths must be wider than the item's depth or height
• Internal door height must be greater than the item's width (if the piece can't be carried horizontally)

Getting furniture to an upper level is no easy feat but our delivery team are experienced with even the trickiest stair situation. Unless you have a very wide staircase with large landings, this usually requires standing the furniture piece up on its end.ÌýRemember these points:

• Stairway width at narrowest point must be wider than the item's depth or height, plus space to manoeuvre
• Any stairway landings must be wider and deeper than item's depth and height plus space to manoeuvre
• If our team are required to lift the item over a banister, there must be enough clearance between the top of the banister and the ceiling
