Single Beds
Our handcrafted metal single bed frames in iron, brass, and nickel combine traditional craftsmanship with modern comfort. Built to order in our Norfolk workshop, each single bed is forged by skilled artisans using British iron and heritage techniques. Whether you’re furnishing a guest room, a child’s space, or choosing a metal single bed for adults, our designs deliver durability, timeless elegance, and everyday comfort.
Standard Bed Size
The standard single metal bed frame UK size is designed to fit a mattress measuring 90cm x 190cm (3’0 x 6’3″). Because every bed is made to order, we also offer bespoke options — from smaller singles for compact spaces to extra-long single wrought iron beds for added comfort. Bed frame dimensions may vary slightly depending on the design. You’ll find details on each product page, or you can contact our team for guidance.

Single Iron Beds
Our iron single bed frames represent the essence of Wrought Iron & Brass Bed Co. Each single wrought iron bed is hand-forged from solid British iron using traditional joints and heritage techniques. With their slender profiles and classic silhouettes, these beds are ideal for guest rooms, children’s rooms, or smaller spaces. They offer strength, charm, and a design that truly lasts.
Single Brass Beds
If you’re seeking elegance in a compact space, choose a brass single bed frame. Handcrafted with antique-style joints, our single brass beds are available in polished, satin, or aged finishes. These warm and characterful designs transform smaller bedrooms into refined and welcoming spaces.
Single Nickel Beds
Nickel single bed frames provide a modern take on classic craftsmanship. We combine the strength of iron with a high-shine nickel finish, creating frames that feel both contemporary and timeless. Perfect for interiors that lean modern or traditional, these nickel single beds offer a lighter look without compromising durability.
Single Day Beds
Day beds are versatile, stylish, and practical. By day, they function as elegant sofas; by night, they become comfortable metal single beds. Each frame is crafted with the same precision as our standard beds and finished in vibrant powder-coated colours. Perfect for guest rooms, home offices, or small apartments, they bring flexibility without losing design appeal.
Discover the Story Behind the Bed
Every metal single bed frame we create begins with a story. From the first sketch to the final hand-forged detail, each bed is made in our Norfolk workshop using 19th-century ironworking traditions. These are not just beds — they are heirloom pieces, designed to carry the spirit of British craftsmanship into the future.
What Makes Our Handmade Iron and Brass Beds Stand Out?
A great bed is an investment in your sleep and your lifestyle. In today’s world of fast furniture, we take a different path — one rooted in sustainability, substance, and heritage. As the saying goes, “We’re not rich enough to buy cheap furniture.”
Choosing a handcrafted iron or brass single bed frame means buying once and enjoying it for decades. With comfort, durability, and timeless design at their core, our beds are built to last.
