A squared plus b squared equals c squared
hypotenuse is 94 inches..the hight of the celing...
the leg that is shortest is 17 inches
so (94 x94 ) - (17 x17)= K
square root of k =92.44 inches
so if you make it 92 inches high you can carry it in to the room lie it down flat on the floor & lift the top up..it will just clear the celing..when going into place..

The problem isn't getting it into the house...it's standing it up once it's there. You may consider 3 ways around this problem. #1: Build it in 2 parts. or #2 Build it in place. Or #3: Make it a little shorter and add a border board on the top. I hope this helps.

If you plan to raise it from the front to the back, then the height should be no more than 92 7/16. To raise it from the side would cause a lower height.

build it 94 inches, and carry it in on its side ;)

just to make sure, try 84 in. just a carpenters guess. but if you graph it out, it will probably be easier to build it in the room its going in.
