Bed Frames & Bed Bases

Shop Bed Frames by Size, Style and Storage

A good bed frame does more than hold your mattress. It supports your sleep, shapes the look of your bedroom and helps your mattress stay stable for longer.

At Levede, you can shop bed frames and bed bases in popular Australian sizes, including single, king single, double, queen and king.

Whether you want a simple metal base, a warm timber frame, a soft upholstered bed frame or a storage bed with drawers, choose a frame that suits your mattress size, room layout and daily routine.

Why Choosing the Right Bed Frame Matters

A bed frame is the foundation of your bedroom. It supports your mattress, helps reduce sagging, improves airflow and sets the overall style of the room. A strong bed base can also reduce movement, squeaks and shaking, especially if you share the bed or use a heavier mattress.

A well-matched frame helps your mattress perform properly. If the base is too weak, uneven or poorly fitted, your mattress may not feel as supportive as it should.

A strong bed frame can help:

• Support your mattress properly
• Reduce sagging over time
• Improve airflow under the bed
• Lift the mattress to a comfortable height
• Keep the bedroom looking neat and finished

Bed Frame Sizes & Mattress Dimensions 

Choosing the right size is important for comfort and room layout. If you're unsure, read our bed sizes in Australia guide.

Single Bed Frames (92 × 188 cm)

Single bed frames are a compact option for kids, small bedrooms, study spaces and guest rooms. They are easy to place, easy to move and work well in timber, metal or upholstered designs.

King Single Bed Frames (107 × 204 cm)

King single bed frames give extra width and length compared with a standard single. They are a good choice for taller teens, growing kids or solo sleepers who want more space without moving up to a double.

Double Bed with Frames (138 × 188 cm)

Double bed frames suit teens, single adults, guest rooms and smaller shared spaces. They give more sleeping room than a single while still fitting neatly into many medium-sized bedrooms.

Queen Bed Frames (153 × 203 cm)

Queen bed frames are one of the most popular choices for Australian bedrooms. They give couples enough room to sleep comfortably while still leaving space for side tables, wardrobes and other bedroom furniture.

King Bed Frames (183 × 203 cm)

King bed frames are best for larger rooms and couples who want extra sleeping space. They are also a good choice if kids or pets often climb into bed.

Choosing the Right Bed Frame for Your Space

Your room size, sleep style and storage needs should guide your choice. Before buying, ask yourself:

• What mattress size do I already have?
• Do I need extra storage under the bed?
• Do I prefer timber, metal or upholstered finishes?
• Do I want a headboard for reading or sitting up?
• Do I need LED lights, USB charging or shelves?
• Will drawers or gas lift storage open properly in my room?

If your bedroom is tight on space, a lower frame can make the room feel more open. If you need extra storage, a drawer base or gas lift bed frame can help keep spare bedding, clothes and seasonal items out of sight.

Bed Frame Materials & Finishes

Different bed frame materials create different looks and levels of comfort. The best choice depends on your room style, cleaning needs and how you use your bed every day.

1) Timber Bed Frames / Wooden Bed Frames

Wooden bed frames bring warmth and natural texture to a bedroom. They suit coastal, classic, farmhouse and relaxed interiors. Timber-look finishes are also useful if you want a softer, warmer room without a glossy look.

Choose a wooden bed frame if you want:

• A warm and natural bedroom feel
• A frame that pairs well with timber side tables
• A timeless style for main bedrooms or guest rooms

2) Metal Bed Frames

Metal bed frames are slim, sturdy and easy to clean. They often work well in kids’ rooms, teen rooms, guest rooms and minimalist spaces. Metal frames are a practical choice if you want reliable support without a bulky look.

Choose a metal bed frame if you want:

• A clean and simple design
• A lighter frame style
• Easy maintenance
• A good option for small or shared rooms

3) Upholstered Bed Frames

Upholstered bed frames add softness and comfort, especially if you like sitting up in bed to read, watch TV or relax. A padded headboard can make the room feel more finished and hotel-inspired.

Choose an upholstered frame if you want:

• A softer bedroom look
• More comfort when sitting up
• A modern or cosy style
• A frame that feels warmer than metal or timber

Bed Frame Styles

Bed frame style affects the whole bedroom. A low platform bed can make the room feel calm and open. A timber bed can add warmth. An upholstered bed can feel soft and cosy. LED bed frames can add a modern look and make the room feel more functional at night.

Popular styles include:

• Modern low-profile bed frames
• Classic timber bed frames
• Upholstered hotel-style bed frames
• Simple metal bed bases
• Storage bed frames with drawers
• LED bed frames with USB charging

To build a more complete bedroom layout, pair your frame with matching bedroom furniture, storage pieces and bedside tables.

Bed Frames with Storage

A bed frame with storage is one of the most practical choices for Australian homes. Storage beds help you use the space under your mattress for linen, quilts, off-season clothes, shoes or spare pillows.

Common storage options include:

• Under-bed drawers
• Gas lift storage bases
• Storage headboards
• Side shelves or built-in compartments

Drawer storage is useful for regular access, while gas lift bed frames are better for larger hidden storage. If you are deciding between storage styles, our guide on whether gas lift beds are worth it can help you compare the pros and cons.

Bed Base Options

A bed base sits under the mattress and affects support, airflow and comfort. Most bed frames use either slats, a platform base or a storage base.

Slatted Bed Bases

Slatted bases allow airflow under the mattress and are common in timber, metal and upholstered frames. Closely spaced slats help reduce mattress sagging and keep the sleep surface stable.

Platform Bed Bases

Platform bases create a firm, even surface. They can suit sleepers who prefer a steadier feel and want a simple modern look.

Storage Bed Bases

Storage bases give you extra room under the mattress without adding more furniture. They are useful for apartments, compact bedrooms and homes with limited wardrobe space.

Bed Frame Comfort and Support

Comfort comes from both the mattress and the frame. A supportive frame keeps the mattress stable, reduces movement and helps prevent sagging. If your mattress is soft, a firmer base can make it feel more stable. If your mattress is firm, an upholstered frame and padded headboard can make the bedroom feel softer.

Look for:

• Strong centre support
• Secure slats or a solid platform
• Stable legs and joinery
• A headboard height that suits your room
• Enough clearance for cleaning or storage

How to Measure Your Room for a Bed Frame

Start by measuring your room’s length and width. Then check the mattress size and allow extra space for the frame, headboard and any side rails. As a general guide, leave around 70–90 cm of walking space where possible.

Before buying, also check:

• Doorway width and stair access
• Wardrobe and drawer openings
• Window position
• Power points for LED or USB bed frames
• Space for bedside tables

You can mark the bed footprint on the floor with tape to see how the frame will feel in the room before ordering.

Bed Frame Care Tips

Simple care can keep your bed frame looking good for longer.

• Timber frames: Dust with a dry cloth and avoid excess moisture.
• Metal frames: Wipe with a mild cleaner and dry straight away.
• Upholstered frames: Vacuum gently and spot clean marks based on the fabric type.
• Storage frames: Keep drawers clear of overloading and check fittings occasionally.
• Gas lift frames: Use both hands when lifting and avoid letting children play with the mechanism.

FAQs

What size bed frame do I need in Australia?

The right bed frame size should match your mattress size. For example, a queen mattress requires a queen bed frame. You should also measure your room and leave enough space for walking, bedside tables, and wardrobes to ensure the bed fits comfortably.

How big is a queen bed frame in Australia?

A standard queen mattress in Australia measures 153 × 203 cm, but the full bed frame is usually slightly larger due to the headboard, side rails, or design. It is important to check the exact product dimensions before buying to ensure it fits your room.

What is the difference between a bed frame and a bed base?

A bed frame is the overall structure that holds the mattress, including the sides, legs, and often a headboard. A bed base is the support system underneath the mattress, such as slats or a solid platform, which is sometimes included within the bed frame.

How do I measure room space for a bed frame?

To measure room space for a bed frame, check the full length and width of your room and compare it with the overall bed frame dimensions. You should allow enough space around the bed for movement, furniture, and easy access to doors and wardrobes.

Are storage bed frames worth it?

Storage bed frames are worth it if you need extra space in your bedroom. They provide built-in storage for bedding, clothes, or other items, helping you reduce clutter without adding extra furniture.

Do storage bed frames affect mattress support?

A good-quality storage bed frame does not affect mattress support as long as it has a strong base, proper slats or platform, and a stable structure. When assembled correctly, it will support the mattress just as well as a standard bed frame.

Which bed frame material is best?

The best bed frame material depends on your needs and style. Timber offers a classic and warm look, metal is durable and lightweight, and upholstered frames provide a softer and more comfortable finish for modern bedrooms.
