Double Headboards

What size is a double headboard?

Double bed headboards are at least 4ft 6in (137cm) wide to match the dimensions of a double mattress. However, there’s no standard height for a double sized headboard, so you can choose the style that you like the most.

Full Length Double Headboard

A full length headboard for double beds will go much further up the wall above your bed and down the end of the bed. This type of headboard attaches to fixings on the bed base, so make sure that it’s compatible with your double bedframe. If you’d like your headboard to make a statement and give your bedroom a touch of luxury, look for a full length headboard.

Strutted Double Headboard

A strutted double headboard is usually much lower and slots into the bed, rather than reaching down behind the base. These headboards are better for smaller rooms or to give a cosier feel to your bedroom, while still adding a touch of elegance to the double bed.

Choosing the right size double headboard is extremely important, so you'll want to make sure you know the exact dimensions of your bed before you make a purchase. If you're still unsure, use our bed and mattress guide for more information.

Choosing a double headboard with eye-catching styles helps create a statement piece in your bedroom.

Double Fabric Upholstered Headboards

If you've got a specific colour scheme in mind, a fabric upholstered headboard is a great option. The fabric headboards come in a range of colours like classic grey and beige or even soft pink, and textures suit a wide range of personal tastes. Fabric upholstered headboards are also soft and comfortable for sitting up in bed, so a great choice if you like to stay up reading or watch TV in bed.

How to fit a double headboard

All of our double headboards are made to fit our double beds perfectly, so they should be easy to put together. The type of headboard you purchased will also change how you attach it to your bed: strutted headboards with pegs will slot into holes in your bed base, while full length headboards attach to fixings lower down.
