5ft King Size Beds

Why choose a king size bed frame?

At the end of the day, if you have a king-sized mattress, then you need a king-sized bed to go with it. Built to provide extra room in bed without taking up too much of your already limited floor space, 5ft king-size beds are a great choice for anyone with a large, open bedroom in need of a statement piece.

There are even plenty of king size beds with storage, such as ottoman lift divans or king size wooden bed frames with drawers. And, even if you don't opt for a king size bed with dedicated storage, that doesn’t mean you can’t take advantage of all the room beneath it. With some smart storage solutions, you can put all that floor beneath it to good use!

How big is a king size bed?

In the UK, the standard king size bed boasts dimensions of 5ft x 6.6ft (or 150cm by 200cm). Naturally, this makes them a lot bigger than standard double beds, helping you to wave goodbye to those late-night disputes over who is on whose side of the bed.

Indeed, the amount of room offered by a 5ft king-size bed is nothing to be sniffed at, and for a regular to large size room, they offer the sort of elegance and sleeping space needed for a night of peaceful sleep.

What types of king size beds are available?

While they might be substantially larger than other bed frame sizes – with the exception of super king beds – 5ft king-size beds are still available in all of the standard bed frame options you can find in our range.

For example, if you’re after a chic, homely feel, then opt for a king size wooden bed frame to bring some rustic charm into your home. Alternatively, you could opt for a king size four poster bed to bring some extra luxury into your sleep setup!

With that being said, if bed storage is more of a priority for you, then you can most certainly find king-size divan beds out there that are more than capable of providing you with all the additional space you need to put away bed sheets, spare duvets, and bedroom essentials. In fact, a king size ottoman divan bed is the best way to maximise storage space, and will help you fit this larger sized bed into your room by eliminating the need for extra furniture!

Should you buy a king size bed and mattress combination?

If you’ve never bought a king-size bed before, then opting to buy a king-size bed with mattress set can be a great option if you’re looking to save money on upgrading your sleeping space.

On the other hand, if you’re only swapping out your bed frame for a new one and intend to keep your current king-size mattress, then you may be better off buying your new king-size bed frame on its own – the choice is yours!

How much does a king size bed cost?

Given their larger size, the average 5ft king-size bed frame will definitely cost more than a standard double. However, that’s not to say that king-size beds are overly expensive – in fact, you can find plenty of fairly priced models in our collection.

At the lower end of our price range, you’ll have no trouble finding a king-size bed for around £200, while our most expensive king-size beds are well under £1000. And, no matter how much you spend on your new frame, you’ll still be able to take advantage of our free, next-day delivery service!
