Ottoman Divan Beds

What Are Ottoman Divan Beds?

Ottoman divan beds are innovative, space-saving beds with lift-up storage in the base. The mattress stays on top of the bed base, while the storage area opens from the side, end, or top section using a hydraulic gas lift mechanism. An ottoman divan bed gives more storage than standard drawer bases because the space inside the base can be used more fully. It keeps bedroom items hidden, organised, and easy to access whenever you need them.

What Sizes Are Available in Ottoman Beds?

Ottoman beds are available in standard UK sizes, from small single beds for children to super king beds for larger bedrooms.

• 3ft Single Ottoman Bed: Best for children rooms, guest rooms, and narrow bedrooms.
• 4ft Small Double Ottoman Bed: Good for one person needing more sleeping space.
• 4ft6z" Double Ottoman Bed: A popular size for couples and main bedrooms.
• 5ft King Size Ottoman Bed: Gives more comfort and storage for larger rooms.

What Storage Options Are Available in Divan Ottoman Beds?

At divanbed.co.uk, we have different storage mechanisms for divan lift up beds that open from the side, end, or full top section, to cater to different room layouts.

End Lift Ottoman Beds

End lift ottoman beds open from the footboard side of the bed. The mattress platform lifts upward from the end, giving access to storage inside the divan base. Most end lift divan ottoman beds are made in two base sections. Each section has its own storage space under the lid, so bedding, clothes, and other items can be kept neatly inside. This style works well when the foot of the bed has clear space.

Side Lift Ottoman Beds

Side lift ottoman beds open from the left or right side of the bed. They are useful when the bed is placed near a wall, wardrobe, or narrow walkway. The side lift design gives easy access to the storage without needing much space at the foot of the bed. Some side lift options allow you to choose which side opens, depending on your bedroom layout.

Full Ottoman Storage Beds

Full ottoman storage beds open with one large lift up lid. This gives wider access to the full storage area inside the base. This option is useful when you want one open storage space for larger items such as duvets, spare bedding, blankets, suitcases, or seasonal clothes.

Features of Ottoman Divan Beds

Ottoman divan beds are built with storage, support, and bedroom style in mind. The main features come from the base structure, lift system, fabric finish, size choice, and headboard options.

Lift-Up Storage Base

The base opens from the side, end, or full top section. This gives you hidden storage under the mattress without using extra floor space.

Gas-Lift Opening System

The lift system helps raise the mattress platform with less effort. It makes the storage easier to open and close during daily use.

Two Part Divan Base

Most larger sizes come in two base sections. This makes delivery, movement, and assembly easier in tight stairs, flats, and small rooms.

Strong Mattress Support

The divan base gives the mattress a steady surface. This helps the bed feel stable and properly supported.

End Lift and Side Lift Choices

The end lift opens from the foot of the bed, while the side lift opens from the left or right side. This helps you choose the best access point for your room.

Upholstered Fabric Finish

The base is covered in fabric, giving the bed a clean and soft bedroom look. You can choose colours that match your room style.

Headboard Compatibility

Ottoman divan beds can be paired with floor standing, wall mounted, or wooden struts headboards. This helps you complete the bed style easily.

Which Headboard Is Good for an Ottoman Divan Bed?

The best headboard for an ottoman divan bed depends on your room style, wall space, and how much height you want behind the bed. Floor standing headboards are best for a strong and premium look, while strut and wall mounted headboards are good for simple rooms.

Floor Standing Headboards

Floor standing headboards sit directly on the floor behind the bed. They usually give the bed a taller, stronger, and more complete look. This style is a good choice for master bedrooms, luxury bedroom designs, and taller bed setups. It also feels more stable because the headboard stands from the floor instead of only attaching to the base.

Wall Mounted Headboards

Wall mounted headboards are fixed directly to the wall behind the bed. They do not move with the base and can give the room a cleaner, fitted look. This option works well when you want a hotel-style bedroom or when the bed may be moved slightly without changing the headboard position.

Headboards with Wooden Struts

Headboards with wooden struts are attached to the divan base using wooden supports. They are simple, practical, and easy to fit. They are often available in heights such as 20, 24, and 30 inches. A lower height gives a neat look, while a taller height makes the bed feel more finished.
