What is the size of a small double bed?
A small double bed is 4 feet wide (48 inches or 120 cm) and 6 feet 3 inches long (75 inches or 190 cm). They are ideal for individuals who have limited space in their bedroom and are seeking a compact and comfortable sleeping solution, or for couples who do not require a lot of sleeping space.
Small double bed frames also provide more options compared to single beds. With more room for storage options, small double beds can be a great space saving solution.

Can you fit 2 people in a small double bed?
A 4ft small double bed can accommodate two adults, though it can feel cramped. It is 6 inches narrower than a double bed, reducing the sleeping space. However, the advantage of a small double bed is that it frees up more floor space, potentially allowing for additional storage or a spot for your morning exercise routine.
For a comfortable sleeping arrangement for couples, a double bed is recommended. However, if space is limited, a queen size bed can still provide comfort and restful sleep.
What are the different types of small double beds?
Divan Bases
Opting for a small double bed means you want to maximise space without sacrificing comfort. A small double divan base is a great choice as it often features built-in storage drawers. This allows you to store items such as extra clothing, bed linens, and more, while keeping your room clutter-free. When selecting a small double divan bed, be mindful of the width of the drawers when making measurements.
Ottomans
Just like a divan base, a small double ottoman bed provides ample space-saving benefits. The use of gas-lift technology makes lifting the mattress effortless, revealing ample storage underneath the bed. This type of ¾ bed with storage is perfect for compact bedrooms as it does not require additional space for opening drawers
Sleigh
Sleigh (or sometimes referred to as 'scroll beds') are a fantastic way to inject some character into your bedroom. They typically have tall curved headboards and footboards making for a true showstopper when it comes to bedroom design and decor.
Wooden
A small double wooden bed frame can impart a cozy, French chateau feel to your bedroom. These beds are budget-friendly due to the cost-effective materials used. If you desire a more sophisticated look at an economical price, a painted queen-size bed frame can add a touch of elegance to your space.
Upholstered
Bring sophistication and class to smaller spaces with a fabric small double bed frame. Our fabric bed frames come in a variety of styles, types of fabrics, and colours to help you find the right bed frame for you.
Metal
A 4ft metal bed frame is an affordable option, ideal for a guest bed or budget-friendly move. Metal is versatile and comes in a variety of colors like black, white, and pink. If you desire a modern, sleek look or a touch of whimsy, metal beds are a great choice and have durability.
