metal bed base

catnap53

Due to the room size, I am looking for a single slatted bed base that is the same size as the mattress i.e. divan bed size.

This one is ideal (Storra), but single no longer available.

I think I am googled out, but if anyone has any ideas, I would be most grateful.

Thanks,

Does it have to be a slatted base? You can get divans on legs.

Original Bedstead Company do metal beds with sprung slats, will be same width as the mattress but a little longer.

I think Breasley do a take away divan base that you build youself, that has a slatted base.

Hi I bought my OBC bed from Beds Direct and my friend bought hers from Beds on Legs (both are slatted). This was about 4 years ago. Both companies were great (service wise) and the beds are still as good as new.

I decided on the bed I wanted then trawled the internet looking for the best price. Initially I had ordered through the e-Directory portal (Bedstar) but had problems. Not sure whole fault Bedstar or E-Directory. I suspect e-Directory.


I think it is safe to say most metal bed have slats, interestingly yours does not have a headboard, maybe that is why it is difficult to find something similar.

HTH and good luck with the search.

Thanks for the replies. The one pictured doesn't have headboard or foot end.

I bought the double bed size a few years ago because I already had a fairly new headboard that I really liked, and I sit on the end of the bed to do my hair in front of the dressing table.

I wanted to get the same in a single for redoing my daughter's room. She currently has a high sleeper with wardrobe underneath, but changing to a normal bed along the same wall only leaves space for a fairly narrow wardrobe, so was hoping to put one on the short wall.

Some of the sites I have looked at don't give the actual size of the frame and I don't want to take the risk of it not fitting in easily.

The last one I had just about fitted with headboard and foot end (before the high sleeper). It had a mesh base, and I had not realised that even with an expensive mattress it would not give enough support, hence wanting sprung slats this time and another few centimetres to play with.

Thanks again, I will keep looking.
