Although comfort is a major part of choosing the right bed, it isn’t the only one. When selecting a bed frame, you must consider a whole load of variables, including style and even your body type too.
That’s right – the size and shape of your bed can have a major impact on your sleep depending on your body. Therefore, it’s crucial to know what kind of bed is best for your specific body type.
Perhaps you’ve always struggled to find a bed that suits your needs, or maybe you’re just fed up of having a poor night’s sleep. Regardless, in this piece, we’ll explain how to find your perfect match when it comes to bed frames and body types.
As a lightweight person, you have quite a lot of options available to you when it comes to choosing a bed frame. With less weight on top, the bed frame and its joints will undergo much less strain throughout the night. This negates the need for a significantly robust bed frame, and therefore widens the choice available.
Lightweight people can, as a result, have a lot more options available to them.
Unlike lightweight people, heavy individuals will need to spend a little bit more time selecting the right bed frame for them. This is due to the plain fact that the additional weight means that the frame itself needs to be much stronger to withstand the use.
While this may sound like a big deal, it really isn’t. We at Get Laid Beds are confident that we have a bed that’s suitable for people of all sizes, making them a perfect fit no matter your body type.
We can say this thanks to our tried-and-tested approach to manufacturing, which is informed by our passion for carpentry. Each of our beds is handmade from scratch at our UK facility and undergoes a rigorous quality control process before it reaches your door.
Like lightweight people, people under six foot tend to have a lot more options with their bed frames. This is due to the plain fact that standard bed frame sizes are built to fit average sized adults.
In the UK, even the shortest mattress you can find will be well over six foot at 6’ 3” – this massively widens the choices for those under this height.
If you’re particularly gifted with height, you might find that, while the real-life benefits of being taller are abundant, these quickly begin to dwindle as you look to buy a bed frame.
This of course depends on how much taller you are than six foot – mattress lengths can go as long as 7ft, which should cover most of the world’s population. But, if you’re just a few inches off 7ft, you may feel cramped while you sleep.
Generally speaking, most bed frames will be more than adequate for the needs of those over 6 foot. But, who wants adequate? Your bed is one of the most important pieces of furniture in your home – it’s where you recharge after a long day, and start the next one.
Thankfully, we at Get Laid Beds can build a bespoke bed frame to your exact requirements. It starts by you sending us what you’d like. Send us your room measurements, as well as any further alterations you’d like made to account for things like sloped ceilings, and we can build you a bed that’s uniquely yours, no matter your needs.
Head to our made to measure beds page today and start the process of making your own custom bed.
Is it time for a new bed frame? No matter your body type, or spatial requirements, you can count on Get Laid Beds to build a solution that’s made especially for you. You can choose from some of our standard styles, or build a completely custom bed frame from scratch.
Whichever option you choose, you can rest soundly knowing that each wooden bed frame is handmade and influenced by our carpentry heritage. Get a better night’s sleep with Get Laid Beds.
