Expert Analysis
✕ Does not fit — 0.16 ft too large
[why-details]
> Why it doesn't fit
The item exceeds the opening in every orientation — no rotation or tilt resolves this.
Tightest point: Item vs Opening (width axis)
Remaining clearance: 0.16 ft (5.5%)

> How to make it work
The item exceeds the space in every orientation — standard entry won't work. Consider these alternatives:
- Disassemble the item if possible
- Check for wider doors or windows
- Consider professional movers with pivot techniques

Safety margin: Adequate
Operational expectation: Standard handling — no special equipment or technique needed.

However, if the hallway has an L-shaped turn, the 3 ft length won't clear the corner. With 2.83 ft across the corridor, the 90° sweep geometry limits the navigable length to 0.47 ft.

What we used · Low Confidence
Opening: 3 ftW × 8.01 ftH
Item: item — smallest cross-section 2.83 ft (estimated)
*Rotation required: reoriented*
Assumptions
- Item is rigid and cannot be compressed, bent, or disassembled
- Space has perfectly square corners and flat surfaces
- No obstructions (light fixtures, handrails, trim, furniture) in the path
- Path from entry to destination is straight with no turns
- Floor is level with no steps or thresholds
- Ceiling height assumed 8ft (2438mm) — not measured
- Some dimensions were estimated — not provided by you. Verify before proceeding.
- Detected sofa, size: medium
- Estimated depth, height from local_db (depth, height not provided by user)
- Assumed standard hallway width: 36"
- Assumed standard ceiling height: 8ft (2440mm)

Step-by-step proof (best: 863.5999999999999mm across, 2134mm vertical)
1. Width: 2.83 ft item ≤ 3 ft opening → ✓ (0.16 ft clearance)
2. Height: 7 ft item ≤ 8.01 ft opening → ✓ (1 ft clearance)
Limiting: hallway_width at 0.16 ft
