Frequently Asked Questions – Wall Beds & Modular Furniture

Whether you're buying your first wall bed or expanding your modular setup, here are answers to the most common questions our customers ask.

⚙️ Wall Bed Mechanism

• Q: How does the wall bed folding mechanism work?

  • A: Our wall beds use either a spring or pneumatic gas-lift system that makes folding and unfolding smooth and effortless. The mechanism is designed to be safe, stable, and easy to operate — even for everyday use. Whether you're opening the bed for guests or folding it away to save space, the system ensures a gentle, controlled motion.

🛌 Mattress Compatibility

• Q: Can I use my own mattress?

  • A: Yes, you can use your own mattress — as long as it meets the recommended thickness and weight for your specific wall bed model. The folding mechanism is calibrated to work smoothly with specific mattress dimensions. Using a mattress that’s too heavy or oversized may affect performance and safety. Always check the product page for the ideal mattress size before purchasing.

🛌 Mattress & Accessories

• Q: Is the mattress included?

  • A: No, mattresses are sold separately. Recommended sizes and specifications are listed on each product page.

• Q: Can I add cabinets or a desk later?

  • A: Yes! Just ensure you choose items from the same Furniture Line to guarantee a perfect match in style, depth, and finish.

• Q: Do you sell LED lighting?

  • A: Yes, our LED shelf lights are compatible with our wall-mounted beds — simply choose the lighting option that matches your specific bed model.

🚚 Delivery

• Q: Do you offer free delivery?

  • A: Yes, we offer free mainland UK delivery on all products. After purchase, we will inform you via email about planned delivery dates and, if necessary, arrange a suitable delivery window.

🔧 Assembly & Installation

• Q: Can I assemble the wall bed myself, or do I need a specialist?

  • A: Absolutely. All products are designed for self-assembly and come with clear, step-by-step instructions. You’ll need basic tools and a second person for larger items. Due to the weight and complexity of the folding mechanism, we strongly recommend having a second person assist you. If you're unsure or working alone, it's best to seek professional help to ensure safe and proper installation.

  • Important: Always level the wall bed carefully during assembly — this step is essential for smooth operation and long-term stability.

• Q: Do you offer assembly services?

  • A: We don’t currently offer assembly directly, but we’re happy to recommend trusted professionals in your area.

🧱 Wall Mounting Requirements

• Q: Can the wall bed be mounted on any wall?

  • A: No — wall beds must be securely attached to a solid structural surface, such as brick, concrete, or a reinforced wooden frame. Proper anchoring is essential for safety and long-term stability. Always use the correct fittings for your specific wall type. If you're unsure which fixings to use, we strongly recommend consulting a professional installer or builder.

  • Important: Never mount the bed on plasterboard or hollow walls without proper structural reinforcement.

🛒 Ordering

• Q: Can I change or cancel my order?

  • A: If your order hasn’t shipped yet, we’ll do our best to accommodate changes. Please contact us as soon as possible.

🧩 Matching Furniture – How to Choose Compatible Cabinets, Desks, and Add-ons

• Q: How do I know which wardrobe, cabinet, or desk matches my wall bed?

  • A: To make configuring your room as simple as possible, our furniture lines are organized into compatible collections. When browsing our store, look for the unique Furniture Line name or code (such as DP, MK, TD, or DN) on the product page. Choosing items with the same code guarantees a perfect, seamless match in terms of style, unit depth, and fittings.

• Q: Where can I find the collection code?

  • A: You will find it clearly listed in the “Furniture Line” section on each individual product page. If you are returning to expand your setup later, you can also find this code in your original order confirmation email or invoice.

• Q: Can I mix items from different furniture lines?

  • A: We highly recommend choosing items with the same code to ensure total compatibility in size, style, and finish. Mixing different lines might lead to slight variations in depths or finishes, which could affect how flush the furniture sits with your wall bed frame.

• Q: Where can I find matching furniture in the store?

  • A: Each product page features a “Complete the set” area showing compatible units. You can also browse all available wardrobes, desks, and shelving units directly in our dedicated Matching Furniture category.
