Who we supply.
In commercial environments you cannot compromise on quality, safety or budget. Our manufacturing capability covers everything from a single replacement bed to a full scheme fit-out.
The bed programme.
Standard UK sizing throughout, built for heavy commercial use. Wider apartment furniture — bedroom case goods, living and dining — can be specified alongside on a project basis.
Divans
Platform top, optional drawers
Hard-wearing platform-top bases with optional storage drawers. The default specification for most schemes, from 3'0" single through to 6'0" super king.
Ottomans
Full lift-up storage
Gas-lift storage across the full base footprint. Where a studio or compact one-bed has to make the floor area work harder, this is usually the answer.
Zip and link
Two singles or one super king
Two independent single beds that link into one king or super king. One specification covers couples and sharers, so the unit does not need two sets of stock held against it.
Frames, low profile and electric
Upholstered and adjustable
Upholstered bed frames in contract fabrics, shallow low-profile bases on legs where the room design calls for a lighter look, and adjustable profiling beds for accessible apartments and care settings.
Mattresses
Open coil to pocket sprung
Contract-grade and CRIB5 compliant throughout, specified for repeat tenancies and repeat cleaning rather than a showroom floor.
Headboards and storage boxes
Floor and strutted styles
Floor-standing and strutted headboards, with matching end-of-bed ottoman storage boxes in the same contract fabric.
Safety as standard.
Strict adherence to UK fire and safety regulations, protecting residents, guests and tenants — and protecting you from the specification being questioned after handover.
CRIB5 compliant
Mattresses, headboards, frames and fabrics supplied CRIB5 compliant throughout. If you are not sure whether your scheme needs CRIB5, ask us before you specify — it is a short conversation and it is cheaper than finding out late.
BS 5852 and BS 7177
Manufactured to meet BS 5852 and BS 7177, with medium or high hazard specified according to the setting and what your insurer requires. Certification issued with the delivery paperwork rather than chased afterwards.
Contract fabric collection
A full contract-grade fabric range: durability and a premium finish, compliant across every option, so a fabric chosen for how it looks does not cost you the specification.
Built to last
Reinforced construction for heavy commercial use, with warranty cover of up to ten years depending on the line specified. Fewer replacements across the hold is where the real saving sits.
Trade pricing.
Factory direct, with two ways to buy depending on whether this is one scheme or an ongoing programme.
What you can expect.
Set up for commercial supply, so the answers are predictable. One accountable supply chain from first enquiry to installed beds.
Quote
Priced quote within 24 hours of receiving your schedule, and a dedicated account manager on the project from that point on.
Lead time
Three to ten business days on standard lines, with manufacturing capacity of around 100 units per week for volume orders. Longer runs are planned against your programme rather than quoted blind.
Delivery
Phased by floor or by block to a booked slot, with vehicles sized to the loading bay. If your programme moves, we hold stock rather than sending it to a site that is not ready.
Install and clear
Installation available where you want it. Built in room, protection fitted, and packaging removed from site rather than left in the corridor.
Open an enquiry.
Whether you are quoting for a single property or a multi-site rollout, we will guide you through the options, the compliance requirements and trade pricing for your volume. Same day response, Monday to Friday.
