We want you to be delighted with furniture you buy from us - but that will only happen if you can get it into your home and it fits the space you've allowed! This is a guide to measuring up in advance of placing your order. You'll find at least three measurements quoted for every piece of furniture we sell, allowing you work out exactly what will fit your space.

On each furniture product page on the website we state whether full or partial assembly is required for that piece. Otherwise, it means the furniture is delivered fully assembled, so measuring up for access first is particularly important.

Will it fit your space?

You'll want your new piece of furniture to be in proportion to the rest of the room. One way of checking that it takes up the right amount of floorspace is to use a newspaper template, or mark out your floor with masking tape.

Just check that you have enough space to walk around your furniture, open doors, drawers etc. With dining tables, you need to make sure you have at least 60cm clearance for the chair when it's out from the table in order to sit comfortably.

Access

Please make sure your new furniture will fit through the doors of your home when we deliver it. We always supply at least 3 measurements and to avoid disappointment we'd encourage you to take a few moments to measure up and compare before you order.

Do take extra care to measure up if you're ordering one of our larger dining tables that comes fully assembled, especially if it has a cross piece. Allow for anything immovable that's going to get in the way of your furniture's passage to its destination - such as bannisters and radiators.
