How do you choose a Double 4ft6 that suits your room and routine

Need hidden storage or a lighter look

If clutter follows you, pick an ottoman storage bed for full base capacity. If you want fast daily access, choose drawers. Prefer an airy vibe, go with a simple frame and slide slim boxes underneath.

Which headboard mood fits your style

Cosy wings frame the pillows, try wingback. Deep buttons read luxe, see chesterfield. Smooth lines bring calm, meet sleigh. Big walls love tall statements, explore 60 inch and over.

Couples, guests, or luxe solo

Couples who cuddle will be happy at 4ft6. If you want elbow room, consider a King 5ft. Guest rooms do well with durable fabrics and a supportive medium feel mattress.

Movie nights or strictly sleep

If film nights are your thing, explore TV beds. If you want calm only, pick a standard frame with a comfy headboard for reading.

How do you measure like a pro so a Double 4ft6 fits first time

Side gaps and walkways

Aim for space each side so knees and drawers clear. Check door swing, radiator valves, and wardrobe handles so nothing clashes with the frame or storage.

Headboard height and windows

Measure sill height and any sloped ceilings. Mid height heads sit under windows. Tall heads suit tall walls with taller lamps for balance and glow.

Delivery path and stairs

Frames arrive in sensible sections for tight turns. Measure door widths and landings, then skim the plan on delivery and returns.

Would a different size feel better in your space

Box rooms, kids, teens, neat sleepers.

Small Double 4ft

Cosy couples or luxe solo with storage options.

Double 4ft6

Classic UK couple size for many rooms.

King 5ft

More stretch and calmer partner movement.

Super King 6ft

Suite energy if the room can handle it.

Which fabrics and colours make a Double room feel calm and designed

Fabric guide

Velvet adds glow, chenille brings soft texture, linen look feels modern and calm, leather look wipes clean. We will match fabric to your light and lifestyle.

Style tricks for doubles

Tone on tone bedding and tall lamps keep things airy. A high headboard can make the room feel designed when walls are tall enough. For compact rooms, choose slimmer bedsides.

Which mattress pairs best with a Double 4ft6, and will it fit

Pocket sprung

Airflow and lively support. Cooler for warm sleepers and great for couples.

Memory foam

Contour and quiet motion for peaceful nights.

Pillow top

Plush hotel surface with solid support beneath.

Orthopaedic

Firmer, alignment focused builds for posture fans.

FAQs

What are Double 4ft6 dimensions

The UK standard mattress is 135 x 190 cm. Frames add a little to width and length depending on style. Check the product page for exact sizes.

Is 4ft6 enough for two people

Yes for many couples, especially in smaller rooms. If you want more side space, step up to a King 5ft.

Which storage works best in a tight room

If both sides are tight, choose an end lift ottoman. If one side is clear, a side lift or drawers make daily access easy.

Does the bed come with a mattress

Frames and mattresses are sold separately. Match your feel in the mattress range and you are set.

Will drawers open with my bedsides

Measure bedside width and leave clearance for the drawer glide path. Continental drawers at the head end help when space is tight.

Will a Double fit through doors and stairs

In most homes, yes. Sections are sensible. Measure narrow spots and check the plan on delivery and returns.
