For a small apartment in Montreal, the right sectional can help maximize your living space by combining everyday seating, guest sleeping space, and convenient storage in one versatile piece. A sectional sofa bed such as Friheten can provide a comfortable place to relax, a guest bed, and hidden storage under the chaise in one functional design.
Grand Jeles professionally refurbishes IKEA Friheten and Manstad sofa beds. The sectional design of these models also gives the delivery team more flexibility because the sofa can be handled in separate sections and installed inside the home. The practical goal is simple: choose the functions you need, then confirm that the sections can reach the room comfortably.

In a compact home, furniture is most useful when one footprint supports several parts of daily life. A sectional sofa bed can provide a full seating area during the day, open into a sleeping surface when needed, and keep bedding or other light household items out of sight in the chaise storage.
That combination can reduce the need for a separate guest bed, extra storage furniture or an additional lounge piece. The advantage is not that every small apartment needs a sectional; it is that the right sectional can make one area work harder without adding more furniture around it.
A sectional that comes apart into manageable sections is usually easier to plan for than one oversized rigid sofa. Individual sections can be carried and turned separately through the building, then reassembled in the room where the sofa will be used.
This does not guarantee that every entrance will work, but it makes access easier to assess. If you are unsure about a doorway, stair turn or elevator, send Grand Jeles a few clear photos and the key measurements before ordering. The team can review the route with you and help assess whether the sectional appears workable for your access.
You do not need a long delivery checklist. Three quick checks are usually enough to identify the points that deserve attention:
1. Picture the sofa in its final position
Choose the chaise direction and make sure the pull-out bed can open where you plan to place the sofa.
2. Identify the one tightest part of the route
Focus on the narrowest doorway, elevator opening, stair turn or final corner rather than measuring every open area in the building.
3. Share anything uncertain before delivery
A few photos plus the relevant measurements give Grand Jeles useful information to review before the sofa is on its way.

Friheten is often easier to plan around when a small apartment benefits from left-or-right chaise flexibility. Its chaise can be assembled on either side, so the final direction can be chosen to suit the room before installation.
Manstad can also be a practical choice when its fixed left- or right-hand configuration matches the room and a fuller, two-arm profile is preferred. The model is discontinued, so availability is limited. Grand Jeles continues to refurbish and service both Friheten and Manstad sofa beds.
At Grand Jeles, each sofa is inspected before delivery and professionally reupholstered. Frame connections, support areas and other high-stress points are checked and reinforced when needed, while the storage compartment and pull-out mechanism are also checked as part of preparation.
Serviceable Original IKEA Foam is preserved unless the customer selects a new foam upgrade. For a small apartment, this functional inspection matters because the same sofa may be used for seating, storage and guest sleeping throughout the week.
Once the room layout and access route are clear, delivery should feel like a coordinated final step rather than a separate problem. Confirm the chaise direction, flag any unusual access point, and share the postal code before ordering.
Delivery and professional installation are included in eligible service areas. Please contact Grand Jeles with your postal code to confirm service availability before ordering.
Sometimes. Separate sections can make a tight route more manageable, but access still depends on the doorway, turns, stairs or elevator, and the final approach to the room. If the route looks tight, send photos and measurements to Grand Jeles before ordering so it can be reviewed.

For a small apartment in Montreal, a good sectional should make its footprint work hard: comfortable seating for everyday life, a bed when you need it, hidden storage for items you want close by, and a sectional format that can be handled in separate pieces during delivery.
Friheten is especially useful when chaise-direction flexibility matters, while Manstad remains an option where its configuration suits the room. If access is the only question holding up the decision, send Grand Jeles the key photos and measurements before ordering so the route can be reviewed in advance.
Workshop visits are available by appointment only. A visit makes it possible to compare available fabric, colour and comfort options in person before ordering.
