History and Detail

Height of Bed
You have three options when it comes to the height of the mattress.
- You can place a Divan base and mattress straight inside the frame so that it sits on the floor.
- We can provide you with slats (as an extra cost option of £50), which lay across the two bottom rails. You can then put a mattress straight on top of these.
- You can have the slats as in option 2, but can put a Divan base and mattress on top of these to give a traditional height.
