• First things first, the sofa. Always use the width, depth, and height measurements given from the widest, deepest, and highest points.
• Then…measure your space. Top tip: You can use masking tape to check how the sofa will look in any potential spot.

• Consider the sofa cushions, feet, and other elements that can make a sofa bigger than the overall frame. Can these be removed for easier access? 
• Don’t panic if you have a small front door - what about the back gate or patio doors? 
• And remember… measure all doorframes from the inside edges, from width to height.

• Always measure the narrowest point on the staircase. For corner stairs, this is from the widths where the two corners meet. 

• Measure the width of the open door, not the frame and whilst the doors are closed. Then measure the depth inside the lift. 

Always check for potential obstacles, including banisters, light fixtures, skirting boards, and radiators.
