About our Single Bed Frames with a mattress
Single bed frames are usually used by young adults and children and are a perfect first bed for a growing child. Single beds with mattresses can usually fit in the smallest of rooms and still leave enough space for other furniture in a room.
Two single beds are good for a spare room as they can be split when two guests are staying over or if you plan to let your spare room out. Single beds are a real floor space saver.
We sell a range of single beds with mattresses, including metal single beds and single upholstered beds.
Types of Single Bed Frames
Single bed frames come in a wide range of styles, so it's worth thinking about what suits your room and how the bed will be used.
Low footend beds keep the foot of the bed low and open, which helps a smaller room feel less enclosed. A good choice where space is limited or you want an uninterrupted view across the room.
Bedsteads are the traditional full-height frame, with a headboard and footboard of matching height. They anchor a room and suit period or classic interiors.
Four poster beds add height and presence, and work surprisingly well in single sizes for a child's room or a characterful guest space.
Upholstered beds bring a soft, padded headboard to lean against, making them ideal for anyone who reads or works in bed.
Minimalist frames strip the design back to clean lines and simple shapes, suited to modern bedrooms and rooms with limited space.
Storage beds make use of the space beneath the frame. Our single iron beds can be fitted with underbed drawers, which slide on rails and keep bedding or clothing off the floor.
Every one of our single frames can be customised, whether that's a bespoke size, a shorter length, or a colour matched to any major UK paint supplier.
Single Bed Frame Materials
The material you choose affects the look, feel and longevity of your bed.
Wood Single Beds
Our painted wooden single beds are available in white as standard, with the option to customise the finish to your chosen colour. Wood brings warmth and a solid, timeless quality, and suits both traditional and contemporary rooms.
Metal Single Beds
Metal single beds are finished in a durable powder coating that resists chipping and rusting. Standard colours are white, ivory/cream, and black, with metallic pewter and silver also available, plus a colour-matching service. Metal frames are strong and quiet, and they hold up well to years of use, making them a practical choice for children's rooms.
Fabric Single Beds
Fabric single beds are upholstered in natural 100% cotton or a cotton-linen blend, with the option to supply your own material. The padded headboard adds comfort and softness, and the fabric finish gives the room a designer feel.
Brass Single Beds
Our brass single bedsteads are made from pure brass tubing and castings, built to last and to develop character over time. Brass suits period properties and rooms where you want the bed to be the focal point.
Single Bed Dimension
The size of a single bedstead is 3'0" x 6'3" or 90cm x 190cm and our single beds should accommodate a mattress from any supplier of these sizes. These size mattresses are available in both the UK and some parts of Europe. We have a range of natural pocket sprung mattresses which are compatible with our beds and beds by other manufacturers.
What is the dimension of a large single bed?
Slightly larger than a standard single bed frame, a large single bedstead in the UK measures 3'6" x 6'3". The large single mattress is not a very common size as most prefer a 4 ft bed frame to a large single bed frame, however, some retailers do sell this size of bed. If you need a large single bed in a particular model, get in touch with us and we'll let you know if it's possible.
What is the size of a short single bed?
While the single bedstead is the shortest standard bed size, there are some smaller bed sizes that are available and these are often classified under the short single bed size. The size of a short single bed can be 90cm x 140cm, 90cm x 160cm or 90cm x 180cm. Short single bed frames are useful for rooms with limited space. Any of our single beds can be made in a shorter size as a customisation.
European Single Beds
In some European countries a single bed is for a 90cm x 200cm mattress which is slightly longer than a standard UK single bed. Two of these put together form a UK/European king sized bed. All of our single beds can also be done in a European single size, i.e. for a 90 x 200 mattress size. European single mattresses are available in UK and Europe readily and we can also customise one of our natural pocket sprung mattresses to these sizes.
We also have other bed sizes available.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of single bed frames are available?
We offer single bed frames in a wide range of styles. These include wooden beds in painted finishes, metal single beds in powder-coated colours, upholstered and fabric single beds with padded headboards, and brass bedsteads made from pure brass tubing. You'll also find low footend designs for smaller rooms, four poster frames for a bit of drama, and minimalist styles with clean lines. Single iron beds can be fitted with underbed drawers if you need storage, and any frame can be customised in size, length or colour.
Are single beds suitable for adults?
Yes, a standard UK single measures 90cm x 190cm, which gives a solo adult sleeper enough room to rest comfortably. Singles work particularly well for adults in guest rooms, box rooms, studio flats or anywhere with limited space, since they leave floor room for other furniture. If you're taller than average, ask us about a custom length so the frame suits you properly.
Do you offer delivery and assembly for single bed frames?
All our single bed frames are delivered flat-packed, with every part, tool and instruction you need included. Delivery to mainland UK is free and takes 3-5 working days. If you'd rather not carry the bed yourself, we offer delivery to the room of your choice for £20, or a full service where our own team delivers, assembles and takes away the packaging. Costs for assembly vary by postcode, so get in touch, and we'll give you a quote.
Other bed categories
We also have other bed categories which you may like to see like our four poster beds, low footend beds, metal bed frames, upholstered beds, grey upholstered beds, wood beds or brass beds.
