Bed Frames That Last Decades
After 38 years in Brantford, I've learned that bed frames are either built to last 20+ years or they're disposable furniture that breaks in 3-5 years. We stock Canadian-made solid wood frames ($400-$1,899), quality metal frames ($179-$499), and upholstered storage beds ($900-$2,800). The price difference reflects construction quality and actual longevity.
Platform beds eliminate the need for box springs, saving you $350-$550. They require slats spaced no more than 3-4 inches apart to support memory foam or hybrid mattresses properly. Storage beds with hydraulic lift mechanisms ($1,200-$2,800) maximize bedroom space,the hydraulic assist makes lifting a king mattress effortless. Drawer storage beds ($900-$1,899) work better in rooms where you can't lift the mattress due to low ceilings or wall-mounted art.

Choosing the Right Frame for Your Mattress
Traditional innerspring mattresses typically require box springs for warranty coverage,check your mattress warranty before buying a platform bed. Memory foam, hybrid, and latex mattresses work perfectly on platform beds with proper slat support. Adjustable bed bases ($899-$2,499) only work with flexible mattresses,memory foam, latex, and some hybrids. Never use an innerspring mattress on an adjustable base.
Queen frames are our biggest sellers (60" × 80"). King frames (76" × 80") won't fit through standard 32-inch doorways fully assembled,they need to be assembled in the bedroom.

Frequently Asked Questions
Brad, Owner (since 1997): "A double metal frame is one of those purchases where you do not need to spend a lot to get something genuinely good. The difference between a $120 frame and a $200 frame in metal is usually the quality of the bolt connections and whether there is a centre leg. Our team knows exactly what to look for."

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a double metal frame need a box spring?
Rail-style double metal frames require a box spring or bunkie board for mattress support. Double metal platform frames have a slatted base and work without a box spring. Ask our team which type you are looking at before deciding.
Are double metal frames stable for adults?
Yes. A double metal frame at this size does not typically require a centre leg, though some models include one for extra rigidity. The 54-inch span is easily handled by a well-made steel rail. Look for corner block reinforcement and tight bolt connections for the best stability.
How long will a metal double frame last?
A well-made steel double frame can last 10 to 20 years with basic maintenance -- tightening hardware every six months and keeping it away from moisture. Metal does not warp or crack like wood, making it one of the most durable frame material options for the price.
What finishes are available on double metal bed frames?
Most double metal frames come in matte black, silver steel, or brushed bronze finishes. Some decorative styles feature a powder-coated finish in white or dark bronze. Visit our Brantford showroom to see current stock and available finishes.
