Will a mattress (60" × 80" × 13") fit in a hallway (42" × 72")?

✕ Does not fit — 12" 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: 12" (28.6%) [/why-details] [maneuver-details] > 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 [/maneuver-details] [difficulty-details] > Effort required Safety margin: Comfortable Operational expectation: Standard handling — no special equipment or technique needed. [/difficulty-details] If the hallway has an L-shaped turn (assuming equal corridor widths), the item can also navigate the corner — 2" clearance. [details-below] What we used · Low Confidence Opening: 42"W × 72"H Item: mattress — smallest cross-section 13" (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 All orientations tested (6 orientations) | | Orientation | Width | Height | Note | |---|------------|-------|--------|------| | ✗ | 1524mm across, 330mm vertical | -18" | 59" | too_wide | | ✗ | 1524mm across, 2032mm vertical | -18" | -8" | too_wide | | ✓ | 330mm across, 1524mm vertical | 29" | 12" | | | ✗ | 330mm across, 2032mm vertical | 29" | -8" | too_tall | | ✗ | 2032mm across, 1524mm vertical | -38" | 12" | too_wide | | ✗ | 2032mm across, 330mm vertical | -38" | 59" | too_wide | Step-by-step proof (best: 330mm across, 1524mm vertical) 1. Width: 13" item ≤ 42" opening → ✓ (29" clearance) 2. Height: 60" item ≤ 72" opening → ✓ (12" clearance) Limiting: hallway_height at 12" *Measure your specific space to confirm — dimensions vary.*
