Bed Legs

How to choose bed legs

• When you need them: wide beds need support under the middle of the base for stability.
• Which height: measure from the floor to the underside of the base, in the middle. Choose the shorter or the taller pair, whichever range covers your gap. Neither pair fits a gap between 25 and 27 cm, so ask us before you order.
• Keep it level: set the legs so the base is flat and touches both legs evenly.

Common mistakes when choosing bed legs

• Skipping them on a wide bed: a wide base without support in the middle is less stable.
• Expecting them to raise the bed: middle legs support the base at its current height.
• Measuring too late: if the gap falls outside both ranges, the legs will not fit. Measure before you order.

Dimensions and materials

• Height ranges: 21 to 25 cm, or 27 to 30 cm.
• Material: metal.
• Sold as: a pair of two legs.

Caring for your bed legs

Wipe the legs with a dry or slightly damp cloth, without harsh cleaners. Check the screws now and then and tighten them if needed.

Goes well with

• Wide beds: middle legs support the centre of the base on beds of 140 cm and more, such as our 140x200 beds.
• Bed drawers: for storage under the bed, see our bed drawers.
