Modular Sofas and Narrow Doorways: Check the Individual Pieces

Plan sofa access using the largest piece that must pass through your home. For a modular design, check the dimensions of each delivered section and the manufacturer’s joining instructions, alongside the final room layout. The overall assembled size is useful for the room plan, while the delivery route needs its own measurements.

Lando’s centimetre figures are rounded conversions from inches. They describe the furniture element, not a guaranteed package size or a promise that it will fit through a particular door.

Measure the whole route

• Record clear door openings with doors and handles in their normal positions.
• Include corridors, stair turns, landings and the approach to each opening.
• Check the space available to turn the largest delivered piece.
• Ask the delivery team to assess any uncertain point before you order.

Confirm how the sofa is supplied

Ask which pieces arrive separately, how they connect and whether any parts can be removed according to the instructions. Do not plan around unbolting arms or removing a back unless the manufacturer confirms that procedure. The chosen fabric and module arrangement should be identified in the enquiry.

Check the final arrangement too

Mark the assembled footprint and leave routes around the sofa. A flexible modular range can offer several layouts, but each configuration still needs its own room and access check. Contact our team with the product code, desired arrangement and route measurements, or browse sofas.
