Choosing the Right Bed Frame

Choosing the right bed frame is just as important as choosing the right mattress. There are many varieties of bed frames on the market; the right one for you can be determined by your budget as well as comfort and functionality needs.

One of the most basic ways to put a bed together is with a bed board, mattress, and metal rails on which to place the bed. This is an inexpensive solution that can be used for a small room. If the frame is too low to the floor, you can buy a set of bed risers to your desired height. This also means that you will have more storage space underneath.

If your bedroom is on the small side but you still want to invest in more decorative furnishings, consider buying a bed frame that will take up minimal space. In some cases, a sleigh bed or other bed made with thick wood might not sufficiently fit. Instead, you can buy the basic frame mentioned above and use a wall-mounted headboard to accentuate the room.

Alternatively, you can buy a bed frame that includes storage under it so that you do not need extra furniture - for example, buying a headboard with a built-in bookshelf or a platform bed with drawers underneath might mean that you can forgo buying an extra night stand or chest of drawers.

Ideally, you will probably want your bed to be open on three sides, meaning that you only want the head of the bed positioned toward the wall. This is especially true if you share your bed with a partner. Before buying a bed frame, measure your room and outline the boundaries of the frame. If the frame includes drawers, make sure that there will be room on each side so that you are able to open the drawers without bumping into other furniture pieces or walls.

In many bedrooms, space is a major factor in the type of bed chosen. Bed frames are just one part of this ensemble, and fortunately, many of them today are built to accommodate the storage needs of a smaller room.
