Piece dimensions
It is very important to compare the height, width and depth of a product and the space that you wish to place it in your home. Our products list their measurements in centimetres on their product listing pages.
Will it fit?
We recommend measuring the following
A piece made to stay should arrive without a fight. Walk the route from your front door to its place in the room, take five measurements, and you'll know before delivery day.
Doorway
Make sure to check the measurements of entrance points such as doorways. A piece can go through a doorway on its side or standing upright. Our delivery teams choose whichever the frame allows, so measure for both and you will know which one applies before we arrive.
Corridors
Corridors are rarely the same width along their length. Remember to make note of Radiators, meter cupboards and turns. Anything carried upright, or turned mid-route, needs an extra five to ten centimetres for the crew to work in.
Stairs
Picture how the piece will need to tilt and rotate on the way up stairs. Measure ceiling height at the foot, the head and above every landing. Note any window sill, banister or ceiling light that intrudes on the turn.
Lift
Measure the width and height of the opening of the lift doors as well as the interior of the lift. It is important to check the weight and access restrictions of the lift.
Room Footprint
Masking tape on the floor is the fastest way to see a piece before it exists in the room.
Check the route, point by point
Enter the piece's dimensions from its product page, then any route measurements that apply to your home. Leave a field blank if your home doesn't have it. Everything is in centimetres.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check if a sofa will fit through my door?
Measure the width and height of the door opening with the door fully open. Compare them with the two smallest dimensions of the sofa, usually its depth and height. If the smaller of those is narrower than the door width, with 5 to 10cm to spare, the sofa can usually be carried through on its side.
What is diagonal depth?
Diagonal depth is the slimmest profile an upholstered piece has when it's tilted back. Hold a straight edge from the top of the back to the front of the arm, then measure from the bottom rear corner of the frame up to the straight edge at a right angle. If this figure is smaller than the depth, the piece can be angled through a narrower opening.

Not sure? Ask us first
Send us your measurements and the piece you have in mind, and we'll tell you honestly whether it will make the journey.
Contact our teamRead about deliveryThe fit checker is a guide based on the measurements you enter. Real routes have skirting, coving and tight corners that a calculation can't see, so please talk to us whenever a result is tight.
How much room should I leave around a piece when it's carried in?
Allow 5 to 10cm beyond the piece's own dimensions at every doorway, corner and landing. That margin gives the delivery team room to hold, turn and guide the piece without marking walls, frames or the piece itself.
What if my measurements show a piece won't fit?
Speak to us before you order. Taking a door off its hinges often adds a few centimetres, and some pieces can travel with legs removed. We can check the delivery dimensions of a specific piece and talk you through the options.
