Will our sofa
fit your door?
The fear with buying a sofa online is that it won't get in. So check first: set your door and hall below, and the plan tells you whether it goes in flat, on its end, or not at all.
Check my doorThree numbers and a tape measure. About a minute.
Check it before you fall for it
Take a tape measure to the narrowest door on the way in and to your hall, then set the numbers. The plan is drawn at 1 cm to 1 unit.
The Three should fit, stood on end.
The door: it needs 74 cm, you have 78. The corner: too tight to swing flat, so it goes round upright. That takes 226 cm of ceiling and you have 240.

Width, depth and height aren't the size that has to get through your door. Legs off and tipped on its back, this one is.
All three photographed from the same spot against the same 4 m wall, so the lengths compare.
Cloth comes by post.
Six swatches in an envelope, big enough to leave on your floor for a week. The colour you see on a screen isn't the colour in your room.
- Tomato
- Navy
- Oatmeal
- Moss
- Ochre
- Slate
On the day it comes.
At your door
Two people take the legs off on the step, so nothing gets scraped on the way in.
Round your hall
Flat if it swings, on its end if it doesn't. The check above tells them which, before they lift it.
If it still sticks
Stairs and odd walls can beat a tape measure. It goes back on the van, and you don't pay for the trip.
