There’s nothing worse than finding a bed frame you love, only to realise it’s not going to fit in the tight space you have available. This is where a space saving bed frame comes in. All of our wooden space saving beds are designed in a way that helps to reduce their overall footprint. Rather than the mattress sitting within a frame, it sits on top, which reduces its overall width.

If you’re looking to spruce up your room and keep it current, but you don’t want to lose any of the space you originally had, we would recommend a space saver bed. Not only are they convenient, but also stylish and invigorating. They’ll bring a breath of fresh air to your bedroom, making it feel revitalised.

What Is A Space Saver Bed?

A space saver bed, also known as a space-saving bed or a compact bed, is designed to maximise the efficient use of space in a bedroom or living area. These beds are specifically crafted to address the challenges of limited space, common in urban apartments, smaller rooms, or multi-functional living spaces. There are several types of space saver beds, and they often incorporate innovative features to optimise space usage.

Types Of Space Saver Beds

Low Oriental Bed (Space Saver)

Our Low Oriental Bed Space Saver (pictured) is a great choice for those looking to modernise their bedroom. The frame features a small headboard for added support and comfort. The design of the bed presents a twist between both modern and an oriental design. Thanks to be a low design, it can be fitted it’s not only handy for smaller bedrooms, but those with a restricted ceiling height, such as loft or attic conversions.

White Knight Bed (Space Saver)

The White Knight Space Saver (pictured) is the counterpart to our popular standard white knight bed frame. The design has proven very popular and is known to create a more spacious feel in bedrooms. The straightforward design is made to match any style or decor.

Low Platform Bed (Space Saver)

Another addition to our wooden space saving range is the Low Platform Bed Space Saver (pictured). This handmade bed frame saves space with a smaller overall footprint, as well as a lower frame height, making it an ideal solution for rooms with a low ceiling height.

Floating Bed (Space Saver)

The Floating Bed Space Saver (pictured). This is a bed frame which promises to add a twist to any bedroom. Thanks to its inset frame, not only is space saved, but the mattress is also given a floating appearance. It also features a large headboard which enhances the design and also provides extra support for those who enjoy sitting up in bed to read or watch TV.

Space Saver vs Standard Sized Beds

Many customers ask what the differences are between a Standard and Space Saver frame. The main difference between them is our Space Saver bed frames are slightly smaller than their Standard alternative but still take the same sized mattress. The second main difference is aesthetic – the mattress would ordinarily rest within the frame of our standard wooden bed where the mattress instead lays on top of the frame in a Space Saver.

What Are The Benefits of a Space Saver Bed Frame?

Sometimes your room may not be large enough to support a particularly tall or large bed frame. You need a wooden bed frame that is not going to take up all of the valuable space in your bedroom. The majority of our space saver beds are variations on our low wooden bed frames, this is because low beds are ideal for those that have attic or loft bedrooms.

Not only this but low space saver beds even have the style and ability to become the centrepiece in any bedroom. If you have a sloped ceiling in your bedroom, low beds are ideal as they are a minimalist design that is perfect for maximising bedroom space.

Whether your main motive for choosing a space saver bed is limited space between existing furniture or whether it is the difference between enabling you to perhaps fit a larger sized bed in the chosen space i.e. a standard double bed frame instead of a small double bed frame.

With all our bed being handmade to order, we’re able to offer customisation options that includes making your bed made to measure.
