How to choose a metal bed

When choosing a metal bed, it is important to consider the room you’re working with as well as the below factors to ensure your dream match.

Size– Our metal beds are available from single to super king. Make sure to choose the correct bed size for your space, ensuring it fits comfortably in your room's layout. Read our helpful bed and mattress size guide to find your perfect match. Don’t forget to pair it with the right-sized mattress to complete your metal bed set up.

Material and finish – Our metal beds come in a selection of robust and durable materials. To create a harmonious look, consider which colours and textures will best comple-ment your existing décor.

Base – Our supportive metal bed frames are available in two different base options:

• Solid slats: timber slats that run across the entire width of the bed, providing a more solid base for your mattress
• Sprung slats: curved slats that provide more cushioned support for added absorption

Height – Make sure your bed height is just right for your comfort, making it easy to get in and out. For example, if you have a thicker mattress, opt for a slightly lower frame so your bed isn’t too high, and you can comfortably sit on the edge with your feet touching the floor. If you’re looking for extra storage solutions, opt for a higher frame for convenient under-bed space.
