Will this sofa fit in my door?

Options
I am looking to buy a new sofa but it is proving difficult to find sofas that fit into my door.
I am looking at a left facing corner sofa:
Height (cm)
92
Width (cm) (corner sofa)
257 x 164
Depth (cm)
96

The arms and feet do come off for delivery but frustratingly I am struggling to find the dimensions of the sofa without the arms and feet.

I am hoping it would fit in a door that measures 200-213cm in height, and 70cm in width and it would immediately would be into a small square porch area that measures around 97cm (lenth one side) x 110cm (length the other side), and would need to be immediately turned 90 degrees to fit through another doorway of 200 (height) x 70cm (width).

I am guessing this is impossible but any help would be very much appreciated!

    I think it would not :(. Have you looked at Nabru? You can design your sofa to fit your room and they guarantee it will fit (through doors and even up spiral staircases). Prices seems fair in fact I am planning to buy one myself soon.

    That looks good, thanks! Ikea also do modular sofas that you build at home very reasonably priced

    My daughter has a small front door 70x195 and a small entrance porch so I know the problem.

    I found 2 solutions for her. The first was a pillow back sofa with the height being 65cm with the feet taken off.
    The one she went for also had removable arms so it was was easy.
    The second possibility is to go for a recliner. On most recliners the backs just slot in. I have just given my recliners away and not only did the backs slot out but the units were positioned on metal bars and the seats came apart so a four seater fitted into a small van.
    You can find examples of recliner assembly on Youtube.
    Corner units also split.

    At the end of the day its a lot easier to visit a retailer and we found my local DFS to be very helpful on the sizes and how the sofas come apart.
    I have also had good service from them over 12 years, deliveries on time but be aware that like many other retailers they charge for delivery, are keen sell you expensive furniture glides and protection insurance.
