Isn't that how Stargates work?

In the game, the portals are always the same size. If that's true here, then the box just won't fit into the portal on the wall.

If it isn't true here, then the box will push on the inside of itself. If the lid were open, the box coming out of itself would have to be smaller than the original box since the blue portal is smaller (but that's not a mechanic seen anywhere in the Portal series).

Both portals should the same size. Fitting one in a box, means the box should be too big to fit in the other portal.
