Will it fit?
A guide to measuring for your delivery
Measuring for delivery
Make sure to measure the space you’re planning on putting the piece of your dreams. It’s helpful to consider your surrounding area and account for anything that can’t be moved. Often, it's helpful to lay masking or painter tape in the outline of your piece to ensure a perfect fit.
Doorways
Measure from the inside of your doorjambs. Be careful to note how wide your doors can open, and accommodate for doorknobs. If the doors can be removed, that might be a good idea to prevent damages. Always try and choose the doors that might offer the most generous space.
Stairways
Measure the width of your stairway (taking account if you have a handrail or post), and the height from the top and bottom steps to the ceiling. Be sure to look out for any sloped or curved surfaces. If your stairwell has a landing, make sure your piece can fit on and around it, both width and height.
Obstacles
Account for any low-hanging ceiling lamps or fans, breakable decorations that cannot be removed, stairway banisters or turns, or angled ceilings or walls. Be sure to completely clear a path for your piece; it’s always helpful to make more space than you think you’ll need, if possible.
