How do I fit a mattress?

Our beds are sold as seen; this keeps our prices low and competitive. Some beds will have bases included in the price, some not, so do read the item description.

We do stock brand new iron-framed slatted bases which are suitable for most double beds.
The width on these bases can be adjusted to suit your bed. The width can be set between 85cm and 158cm (single and king-size).

We also stock a fixed width single slatted base - check out the Slatted Bases section for details.
