When it comes to furnishing your bedroom with style and comfort, 4ft6 double divan beds are a fantastic choice for any space.

What are the benefits of choosing a divan bed?

Buying a divan bed as a set is a more cost-effective way to buy rather than purchasing a separate mattress and divan base. Depending on your preferences and budget, there’s a wide selection of mattress constructions, from affordable foam mattresses to top-of-the range pocket spring mattresses with deep layers of natural fillings.

Can I customise my 4ft6 double divan bed to suit my needs?

Absolutely! We offer a wide range of divan bases from a variety of UK manufacturers who offer a fantastic selection of colours, from traditional to contemporary fabrics. Some are available in up to 30 different designs and colours meaning there is plenty to chose from. 

In addition to the fabric choices, there are also options that allow you to choose a standard platform top base, or a robust reinforced divan; designed to withstand extra wear and tear.

If the height of modern style bases is an issue, don’t worry as there is a selection of divans that allow you to choose the base depth and the legs style that will change the whole look of the bed.

Can I change the height of my divan bed?

Yes, the standard height of a divan base with castors or silver glides is 15” (38cm), however if this is not suitable there are 5” (12,5cm), 6” (15.25cm) or 8” (20cm) available. There are also a range of legs and feet available for these shallow bases that can adapt the overall height. 

What storage options can I chose from?

4ft6 Divan bases come with a range of different storage options to choose from. Depending on where the base will sit in your bedroom and the storage space you require, you can choose from a wide end drawer right up to 4 large side drawers.

If you want storage but also have bedside tables, or want a statement winged or wrap around headboard continental style half drawers with two large side drawers is a great option. 

If the bed is going against a wall, the only drawer storage that would be suitable is a wide end drawer or 2 drawers on the same side. The best option for this situation would be a side or front opening ottoman. They offer maximum storage space with their contents easily accessible.

Can I add a headboard?

Of course! All divan beds have the fixings to allow you to add a headboard of your choice. Most divan beds offer the option of adding a headboard to match your divan base fabric choice.

They offer a selection of standard strutted headboard or a sturdier floor standing design. Tall and impressive, the floor standing styles rest on the floor and against the bottom rail of your divan base and won’t rock back and forth easily.

Are divan beds easy to assemble?

Yes, divan beds are known for their easy assembly. A double divan bed will come with the base in two parts that need fastened together. Any mattresses or headboards will come separately. These components can be quickly put together without requiring advanced DIY skills.

How do I care for my new divan bed?

Using a quality, waterproof mattress protector will protect your mattress from any accidental spills and stains that can occur. Regularly flipping and rotating the mattress will prolong its life and ensure even wear.  Cleaning up any dirt or spills as soon as they happen with a damp cloth will keep your base looking at its best.
