Sofa Fit Through Door Calculator
To determine if a sofa will fit through a door, you need to compare the dimensions of both the sofa and the door. Below is a table summarizing the key factors you should consider:
| Category | Details |
|---|---|
| Sofa Dimensions | Measure the following: |
| Width (Arm to Arm) | Measure the widest part of the sofa, typically from armrest to armrest. |
| Height (Back to Bottom) | Measure from the floor to the highest point on the back of the sofa. |
| Depth (Front to Back) | Measure the distance from the front edge to the back of the sofa. |
| Diagonal Depth | Measure from the top corner of the backrest to the opposite front corner of the sofa's base. |
| Door Dimensions | Measure the following: |
| Door Width | Measure the width of the door opening (excluding the frame and any trim). |
| Door Height | Measure the height of the door from the floor to the top of the opening. |
| Clearance Space | Measure the space around the door (such as hallways, angles, or tight corners). |
| Considerations | Things to keep in mind: |
| Angle Entry | In some cases, turning the sofa at an angle can help maneuver it through the door. |
| Removable Parts | Determine if the sofa legs, cushions, or arms are detachable to make the sofa easier to move. |
| Clear Path | Check if there are any obstacles (like walls, staircases, or furniture) that may hinder the process. |
| Door Removal | Removing the door from its hinges can add additional width clearance if needed. |
