Twin Floor Bed with High Rails

About this piece

A twin frame, sized for a 38 x 75 in mattress. Assembled it measures 41.5 in wide by 77 in deep by 17.5 in high. Shipping weight is 44.1 lb.

It is built from solid wood, with 11 slats across the deck, rated to 250 lb.

A floor bed puts the sleeping surface low enough that a child can get in and out without help, and low enough that getting out is not a fall. Rail height and the gap under the rail are the two figures to read.

The two failures a bed frame actually has are a dip in the middle and a click when somebody turns over. The first comes from support: legs down the centre line rather than only at the corners. The second comes from slats resting on bare metal. Both are stated on every page across bedroom, and both are worked through in The Bed Frame Guide: Slats, Storage and Why Beds Squeak.

Sizes, load ratings and what fits what are stated the same way across iPormis bedroom furniture, so two pages can be compared without opening either box.
