The Guide

Your sofa measurements
  • write down the dimensions of your chosen sofa in the space on a piece of paper. These can all be found in the product overview section of your new buy or the website. You’ll need to refer to these while you measure up.

  • Speak with the sales person or customer service

Getting up the stairs
  • If your sofa needs to make it up some stairs, measure the width of the staircase at its narrowest point. Remember to take any handrails or light fixtures in the wall. If this distance is wider than the height of your sofa then it should fit. If you have a Bannister and the sofa needs to be lifted over it, check that the distance between the Bannister and the ceiling is greater than the depth of the sofa.

  • Once at the top of the stairs, make sure there is enough room on the landing for our delivery guys to manoeuvre your sofa into the right room.

Got a lift?
  • Does your building have a lift that we’ll need to use? If so, measure the open-door height and width, and the depth of the lift to make sure it will fit inside. If the dimensions are greater than the width, height and depth of your sofa, you’re fine.

Navigating the hallways & internal doors
  • We need to make sure your sofa can get into the room that you’d like it to sit in. Measure the width of any areas that the sofa must pass through, such as hallways and internal doors at their narrowest points.

  • Remember to take note of possible obstructions such as radiators, shelving, skirting boards and light fittings. As long as the widths at the narrowest points are greater than the height of your sofa, then you’re good to go.

Can the sofa get into your home?
  • 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.

  • Most models now a days the backs will came off and Some sofas come in breakdown able versions meaning they can be delivered in separate pieces.

  • Use masking tape or newspaper to lay out the size of your sofa. This will give you a good indication as to whether you are happy with the size of it.
