Wrought Iron vs Cast Iron – What’s the Difference?
Cast iron is poured into moulds and mass-produced. It’s often brittle and prone to cracking. In contrast, wrought iron is hand-forged using traditional techniques, making it far stronger, quieter, and more durable. We use solid British wrought iron for every bed — never thin tubes or factory-grade substitutes — so your frame stands the test of time.
Iron Bed Sizes to Suit Every Space
We offer all standard UK sizes, including single, small double, double, king, and super king. Each iron bed frame is built to order, ensuring the perfect fit for your home and lifestyle.
If you need something more specific, we also create custom-made beds — ideal for narrow rooms, extra-long mattresses, or unique layouts. Just let us know your requirements, and we’ll build a bed tailored to you.
Customise Your Iron Bed Frame
From minimalist black to soft ivory and heritage bronze, we offer more than 10 powder-coated colour options to suit your style. You can also personalise the details adjusting the height of the headboard or footboard, choosing between a sprung or fixed slatted base, and even adding a matching mattress or decorative finials.
Whether you’re looking for a single iron bed, a double iron bed frame, or something entirely bespoke, we’ll tailor it to fit your space perfectly.
Delivery & Lead Times
Each bed is made to order. Standard delivery takes 4–6 weeks. Bespoke finishes or custom sizes may take a little longer — but we’ll keep you updated every step of the way.
Caring for Your Iron Bed
Our beds are designed to be low maintenance. To keep yours in excellent condition, simply wipe it down with a soft cloth and avoid using harsh cleaning products. We recommend tightening the bolts once a year to ensure everything stays perfectly silent. And when moving the bed, always lift rather than drag to protect both the frame and your floors.
Thanks to our durable powder-coated finishes, each iron bed resists rust, chipping, and everyday wear so it stays looking beautiful for years to come.
