Bed Size Guide - Standard UK Sizes

The standard UK bed sizes we sell measure:
| Imperial Sizes | Metric Sizes | |
| Single | 3ft x 6ft 3in | 90cm x 190cm |
| Small Double | 4ft x 6ft 3in | 120cm x 190cm |
| Double | 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in | 135cm x 190cm |
| King Size | 5ft x 6ft 6in | 150cm x 200cm |
| Super King | 6ft x 6ft 6in | 180cm x 200cm |
Note that the Imperial and Metric sizes are very close to each other, but are not precise equivalents.
For some help finding the right bed size for you, we’ve summarised each size below with further information.
Single Beds
If you are looking for a bed for one person, then our single beds could be the perfect size for you. Ideal for one sleeper, they provide ample space for comfortable sleeping for a single person. Ideal for a small bedroom, box room, summer house or childrens bed.
Our single beds measure (W x L): 3ft x 6ft 3in / 90cm x 190cm
The height and depth of the bed will vary depending on if you opt for a Divan or an Ottoman base, and which headboard you choose. Find details below on the heights and depth of our Divans, Ottomans and headboards.
Small Double Beds
With more space than a single, small double beds can sleep two people if space is limited and if you’re comfortable sleeping closer together. Sometimes known as a ‘three quarter bed’ as they are three quarters of the way to a double bed size. For a single sleeper, they can be more roomy and comfortable than a single, and are a great choice for teenagers who want an upgrade from their single bed.

Headboard Size Guide
If you are opting for one of our beds with a headboard included, then there are some measurements for this to account for, to ensure it will fit into your bedroom space.
Our headboards are also available to buy on their own, and frame any bed beautifully, adding a touch of luxury and class in a range of stylish designs and patterns.
Our headboards come in two different types:
Strut Headboard - These attach directly to the bed base with two long, wooden struts that fix directly to the base behind the end of the bed. They are lighter and smaller than floor standing headboards.
Floor Standing Headboard - As the name suggests, these sit on the base of the floor behind your bed and frame the end of your bed. They are typically much larger than strut headboards
Our headboards are all 80cm in height from the floor, whether floor standing or strut headboards. For floor standing headboards, the total height of the entire headboard will be 80 cm, as they fully reach down to the floor.
Our strut headboards, though 80cm in height when fitted, are much shorter than a floor standing as the headboard part is only present above the bed frame, and does not reach down to the floor.
