The Norwesco 250 Gallon Doorway Water Tank (N-45722) is built to pass through a standard doorway, measuring just 25 inches wide. It molds in white polyethylene at the 25" x 54" configuration, holding a full 250 gallons of water once it is in position. The footprint that matters for clearance: 25 inches wide, 59 inches front-to-back, and 54 inches tall. That tall, narrow profile clears openings and hallways that block wider vertical tanks of the same capacity.
Will it work for your job
The tank carries a 1.5 specific gravity rating, so it handles water and water-density liquids with margin to spare. Filled with water, the contents weigh about 2,085 pounds, while the tank is rated to carry up to 3,128 pounds of contents - meaning the full 250-gallon water load sits well inside its rating. Plan your floor, pad, or platform around that weight on a 25-by-59-inch footprint: the surface under it needs to be flat, level, and able to support the load without flexing. If you are deciding between this and a wider tank, run your space and volume through the Tank Sizing Calculator or read the Tank Sizing Guide first. The 25-inch width is the whole reason this Norwesco doorway tank exists, so confirm your doorway and its tall profile work together before you order.
Fittings and dimensions
For the fitting and outlet layout on this model, see the technical drawing on this page, and confirm outlet size and any bulkhead or gasket requirements against it before you order plumbing. The most common doorway-tank mistake is matching the wrong size: this capacity also comes in a shorter, wider 29" x 44" build, so the 25" x 54" footprint here is what defines this particular unit. If a lower, wider tank suits your space better, compare the 29" x 44" white doorway tank or the 29" x 44" natural white version before you decide. Matching the exact height and width to your space is where buyers most often go wrong.
