Bed Base Adjustable Width 195cm Length – King Size

Fitting the adjustable slatted bed base:

• The adjustable slatted bed base is shown below on a 5 ft (wide) by 7 ft (long – external dimensions) British antique iron bed.
• It needs securing to most types of metal bed where it sits on top of the bed frame.
• Because the width is movable, it can slide, so must be secured.
• You can drill through the frame and bed use bolts to secure it, or we can provide cable ties on request, free of charge. They work well, with ease and can be hidden.
• This adjustable bed base model additionally has a screw in the bottom of the frame which can be tighten to assist with preventing the frame from moving sidewards – although we would always recommend additional use of cable ties.
• Where the adjustable slatted bed base sits within a bed frame, for example, on wooden, upholstered or corbeille beds, it does not usually need securing. If the base does move, or you prefer to secure it, then again, you can use cable ties to secure it to your cross bars.
• You, the customer are responsible for fitting the base securely to your bed.

If in doubt please contact us and we will provide some advice.

Adjustable Slatted Bed Base Reviews

‘Hi Elena, I am a bit late replying but many thanks for the bed base which was exactly what I was looking for. Arrived safely on time and yes it went up the winding staircase with no problems. I was surprised that the slats become rather widely spaced at the ends but it works OK for me. The cable ties work fine but I also found an old roll of heavy-duty, thick, black, double sided sticky tape – a piece under each mounting point completely avoids any risk of sliding and eliminates any metal to metal contact which might eventually squeak. It makes a very comfortable bed – I have spent too much time over Christmas just lying on it. Thanks again. ‘ Roger, January 2022

‘We received the base today as planned and it’s in place and looks great. We still had the original one that belonged to my great grandparents so imagine how creaky it was!! Just wanted to say thank you for your kind emails and making this delivery so smooth. ‘ – Eva, September 2021

‘Bed frame assembled this morning without any problems. Exactly what was need. Thanks for your service. We used a length of pine on both sides with holes drilled at both ends to clear the fixing bolts as per your instructions, worked a treat. ‘[ Used on a Vono bed ] – John & Julie, September 2021

‘Elena, It all worked perfectly: the bed arrived last week and my friend has now fitted it. He moved up the wooden stabilisers that held the old base and now your fantastic bed base is sitting on the top and I actually have a really great bed at last! All the dimensions were perfect. It is a really stable and brilliant bed base and a really effective way of adding a base to a beautiful old bed. Thank you so much for all your help. Very best wishes’ – Teresa, September 2020

‘Thanks so much Elena for your help. The bed was put together on Friday and I love it. Couldn’t have done it without your fabulous quality product. ‘-  Jacqui, June 2020

‘I have just replaced my old, battered antique bed base with the extendable one. Thank you for the excellent product ! Easy to fit and great service. Highly recommended.’ – Ceri, February 2020

‘Just a brief note to thank you for the adjustable bed base which was delivered last month as promised and has met all my expectations.  The base was easy to fit, using the cable ties you supplied.  The adjustable base sits securely on the corners of my old cast iron ‘brass and black’ double bed frame, as you said it would, and is perfectly stable.  Also in line with your assurances, it is self-supporting and does not sag in the middle.  So I am very pleased with the purchase. Thanks again.’ – Rob, February 2020

‘Just a note to say that I finally got round to fitting my French Bed Company replacement sprung slatted base for my Edwardian ‘Vono’ bed (once in Leeds Castle, and therefore familiarly known as ‘Lady Baillie’s Bed’). I am profoundly impressed by the well designed and engineered base, which was very easy to fit using the cable ties you kindly supplied. Delighted to have found such an elegant solution to the deteriorating original spring base. Many thanks.’ – Rod, December 2019

Got it and fitted it just now. See attached photo. Elena, thank you for the great service. It’s exactly what was required and fits perfectly, I’m really happy ! I wish you continued success . Thanks.  – Max
