How To Measure for Furniture Delivery from Hoot Judkins Furniture
Size does matter when shopping for furniture
Measure Your Room
Before choosing furniture, consider the windows, closets, heating vents and electrical outlets in the room. Does a door open into the space? Next, measure the perimeter of the room and draw a simple floor plan to plot your furniture placement. Note the size and placement of your room's standard furnishings. Don't forget the details. A bench or extra storage chest can make a size difference in any room.
Measure your Components
Measure your television and other components that you would like to place in your furniture. If you have special collectibles - a fine piece of Lladro or a special vase - note the measurements. Always buy your television before your furniture and have the outside dimensions available. Width x Depth x Height. Manufacture television sizes vary widely, and the "size" television has no reflection on the actual width and height of the TV.
Measure for Delivery
It is important that your furniture be delivered through all entryways, elevators and up all stairways. Measure the height and width of your entryways, including staircases, hallways, elevator doors and interiors. Make note of any fixtures, decorative moldings, interior walls, ceiling heights, stairwells and banisters that may pose an obstacle once inside. Consider the furniture to be delivered and determine if it can go straight through entryways or if it will have to go in at an angle or on end. Please consult with a salesperson if you have even the slightest doubt. We can help you determine if the furniture can be delivered into your room, and we can suggest products can be ordered in two pieces for easier access.
