About the work

About made-to-measure headboards

A headboard sets the whole room. Made to measure, it can be exactly as wide and as tall as the wall and the bed call for, in the fabric you choose, rather than the nearest size a shop happens to stock.

Tell us the bed size and the look you are after, whether that is plain and simple, panelled or deeply buttoned, and you will get straight advice on what will work.

For a price, send

  3. 03A photo of the room, if you can
  4. 04The style and fabric you have in mind
Up to four photos can go with the form

01Standard UK bed widths

A headboard usually matches the width of the bed, or runs a little wider so it frames it. These are the standard UK mattress widths to measure from.

Bed sizeMattress width
Single90 cm (3 ft)
Small double120 cm (4 ft)
Double135 cm (4 ft 6 in)
King150 cm (5 ft)
Super king180 cm (6 ft)

02Styles to think about

  • Plain and padded, for a clean modern look
  • Panelled or fluted, with vertical channels
  • Buttoned or deep buttoned, for a traditional, tailored finish
  • Winged, curving forward at the sides
  • Floor-standing on struts, or hung on the wall above the bed

03Getting the height right

Measure from the floor to the top of the mattress, then decide how much headboard you want to see above it. A taller headboard makes a bigger statement and is more comfortable to sit up against; a lower one suits sloping ceilings and windows behind the bed.
