How do I ensure the custom dining table I commission will fit through my narrow apartment doorway upon delivery?

Question

Accepted Answer

Always provide accurate measurements of your doorway, hallways, and any stairwells to the manufacturer before commissioning a custom dining table. This ensures the design accounts for all potential obstructions.

Before confirming your order, measure the height and width of all entry points, including the narrowest points, and consider any turning radii required for larger pieces. Manufacturers typically require these precise dimensions, often within a margin of a few millimeters, to advise on construction methods like detachable legs or modular designs. About 20% of custom furniture delivery issues stem from overlooked access constraints.
