Storage Bed Frames

Storage Beds for a More Organised Bedroom

Make better use of your bedroom with a bed that offers practical storage beneath the mattress. Our collection includes upholstered storage beds in a range of designs, from lift-up ottoman beds to bed frames with built-in drawers.

Storage beds provide a convenient place for spare bedding, pillows, clothing and other bedroom essentials without requiring an additional wardrobe or chest of drawers. Explore single, double and king-size storage beds designed to combine useful under-bed space with a comfortable, upholstered finish.

What Is a Storage Bed?

A storage bed is a bed frame with a compartment or drawers built into its base. Instead of leaving the area beneath the mattress unused, the frame turns it into accessible storage.

The two main options are lift-up ottoman storage and built-in drawers. Both can help reduce visible clutter, but the right choice depends on the items you want to store and the amount of space available around the bed.

What Types of Storage Beds Are Available?

Ottoman Storage Beds

An ottoman storage bed has a mattress platform that lifts to reveal a large compartment underneath. A gas-assisted mechanism supports the platform as it opens, making the storage area easier to access.

Because the compartment uses much of the space beneath the mattress, an ottoman bed is useful for larger items such as:

• Spare duvets and bedding

• Pillows and throws

• Seasonal clothing

• Shoes and bags

• Towels and linen

Lift-up storage is particularly practical when there is limited room for drawers to open at the sides of the bed.

Drawer Storage Beds

Drawer storage beds have drawers built into the bed base. They provide direct access without requiring the mattress platform to be lifted, making them convenient for items used regularly.

Before choosing a drawer bed, measure the clearance beside the frame. You will need enough floor space to open each drawer fully without hitting a wall, bedside table or other furniture.

TV Beds with Storage

Selected storage beds also include a TV-compatible footboard. These designs combine an upholstered bed frame, hidden television compartment and under-bed storage, reducing the need for separate bedroom furniture.

Television compatibility, storage type and available bed sizes vary by model. Check the individual product specifications before ordering.

What Are the Benefits of a Bed with Storage?

Makes Use of Otherwise Empty Space

The area beneath a standard bed often goes unused or becomes difficult to keep organised. A storage bed turns this space into a dedicated compartment or set of drawers.

Helps Reduce Bedroom Clutter

Keeping bedding, clothing and other items inside the bed can free up space in wardrobes, cupboards and drawers. It also keeps stored belongings concealed when the bed is closed.

Useful in Small Bedrooms

Storage beds can be especially helpful in rooms where there is not enough space for additional furniture. An ottoman bed provides access from above, while drawers may suit rooms with clear space along the sides.

Available in Upholstered Designs

Practical storage does not require a plain bed frame. Our collection includes upholstered storage beds with wingback, Chesterfield, panelled, bubble and tall-headboard designs in a variety of fabric finishes.

Which Storage Bed Size Should I Choose?

Storage beds are available in several UK sizes, depending on the selected design.

Single Storage Beds

A single bed with storage can help make better use of a child’s bedroom, guest room or compact space. It provides sleeping room for one person with storage underneath the mattress.

Double Storage Beds

A double bed with storage offers more sleeping and storage space than a single frame. It is a practical option for couples, guest bedrooms and standard-sized rooms.

King-Size Storage Beds

A king-size storage bed provides additional sleeping width and a larger area beneath the mattress. Measure the complete external dimensions to ensure the upholstered frame and headboard fit comfortably within the room.

Size and storage availability differ between products. Always confirm the options shown on the individual product page.

Should I Choose Ottoman or Drawer Storage?

Choose an ottoman storage bed if you want one larger compartment or have limited clearance beside the frame. The lift-up platform makes it possible to access the storage from above.

Choose a drawer storage bed if you prefer separate compartments and want quick access to smaller items. Drawers work best where there is enough room at the sides or foot of the bed for them to open fully.

Consider how often you will access the stored items. Drawers may be more convenient for everyday belongings, while an ottoman compartment can work well for bulkier or seasonal items.

How Do I Choose the Right Storage Bed?

Before ordering, consider:

• The mattress size required

• The complete width and length of the bed frame

• The available space around the bed

• Whether lift-up or drawer access is more convenient

• The items you plan to store

• The preferred fabric, colour and headboard design

• Access through doorways, halls and staircases

• The storage and assembly details listed for the selected model

Do not rely only on the mattress dimensions. Upholstered side rails, headboards, wings and footboards can make the complete frame larger than the stated bed size.

How Should I Use Under-Bed Storage?

Keep frequently used belongings close to the opening and place seasonal items further inside. Storage bags or lightweight containers can help separate bedding, clothing and smaller items.

Avoid overfilling the compartment or placing items where they could obstruct the lifting mechanism. Make sure everything sits below the closing line of the bed base before lowering the mattress platform.
