Expert analysis

A sofa measuring 7 ft 5 in × 3 ft 6 in × 3 ft 7 in fits in a space, with about 2 ft 9 in to spare at the tightest point. That margin already subtracts a 1 in handling allowance, so it reflects a realistic load rather than a paper-thin theoretical fit. One caveat: item is rigid and cannot be compressed, bent, or disassembled.

How we verified this

Binding axis: Hallway width
Tightest clearance: 2 ft 9 in clear
Result: Every axis clears

−1 ft 2 in over

· ON THE WIDTH AXIS

It fits with clearance on every axis.

Your sofa will fit through the hallway, with comfortable room to spare.

Handling: Orient the item so it is reoriented.

↓ EVALUATE

42\,\text{in} \;\le\; 75\,\text{in} \;\Longrightarrow\; \Delta = {+33}\,\text{in}

Plain English: Along the hallway width, the item is 42 in and the space allows 75 in — 33 in to spare.

↓ EVALUATE

43\,\text{in} \;\le\; 96.1\,\text{in} \;\Longrightarrow\; \Delta = {+53.1}\,\text{in}

Plain English: Along the hallway height, the item is 43 in and the space allows 96.1 in — 53.1 in to spare.

How the door-passage check works

A door is a 2D opening — width and height matter; depth (path length through the doorway) doesn’t.

Generate all 6 dimension permutations of the item (3 axes × 2 flips).
For each permutation, apply the door constraint: item_width ≤ door_width AND item_height ≤ door_height.
Subtract 1.5 in handling clearance from each axis to leave room for human movement.
Pick the permutation with the largest minimum-axis margin — that’s the orientation a mover would choose.
Verdict ladder (verdict-tiers.js): FITS if margin ≥ 2 in; FITS_TIGHT if 0.5–2 in; FITS_VERY_TIGHT if 0–0.5 in; DOESN'T_FIT below.

Tolerance ±¼ in (6 mm) is applied implicitly (band promotion to FITS_VERY_TIGHT) — see the note below the orientation matrix.
