The design brief
Measure the sofa in its packed form and every stage of the route: loading bay, service-lift door, cabin, corridor, entrance and final room turn. Total width is rarely the only number that decides access.
- Measure the room and access route.
- Test the exact product in person.
- Record material and finish codes.
- Compare delivered cost and service.

Will This Sofa Fit in My Lift? Doorway & Delivery Access Guide for Gurgaon Apartments
This guide answers high-intent searches from Gurgaon and South Delhi buyers looking for an MG Road furniture showroom, imported furniture, a luxury furniture store near me and a supported alternative to direct China sourcing.
Map the journey
Begin where the vehicle stops. Record basement routes, service entrances, lift bookings, corridors, thresholds and the final room turn, including ceiling restrictions.
Ask for packed dimensions
Packaging adds bulk while detachable legs or modules may reduce it. Request length, width, height, weight and the largest indivisible component.
Use diagonals cautiously
Handles, ceiling height, wall projections and labour clearance reduce the theoretical diagonal. Photographs and a marked route plan are better than one door number.
Coordinate the building
Confirm delivery hours, parking, floor protection and packaging removal. Tape the final footprint, including sleeper opening, recliner clearance or chaise direction.
Compare the complete route
A factory quote is not landed cost. Include freight, inspection, customs, tax, storage, handling, installation, damage risk and after-sales support. Direct import can suit a large professionally managed project; for individual furniture, showroom testing and local delivery coordination may be more predictable.
Use one checklist for both routes: specification, finish approval, comfort, packed size, delivered cost, lead time, damage responsibility and service.
Often missed
- Freight and documents
- Duties and taxes
- Storage and installation
- Damage and mismatch

Some models allow it and others do not.
What should I send Avian?
