How it works

The item travels on its longest dimension, so its cross-section is the two smallest. The tool first tests a straight pass, then the exact tilted rotated-rectangle condition - the same maths in the RoomPlot app.

Frequently asked questions

How do movers get sofas through small doors?

Tilting: rotating the cross-section through the diagonal of the opening. Removable feet, cushions and doors off the hinges buy the last few centimetres.

What size is a standard doorway?

UK internal doors are commonly 762 mm (30") wide with ~1980 mm clear height; US interiors are often 30-32". Measure the actual clear opening - frames steal width.
