What size is a double bed?

While there may be slight fluctuations, the standard size for a double bed is 4’6” x 6’3” (or 135cm x 190cm, for those who prefer metric measurements).

Those measurements are the same for double mattresses too, if you were looking to double up on your bedroom furniture in one fell swoop!

However, bear in mind that sizes can vary with different types of beds. For example, double beds with headboards may be slightly longer than 6’3”, while a bed with storage can be wider than 4’6”. So, it’s important to check the specific length and width displayed on each product page.

For more information on sizes and different dimensions, read our in-depth bed & mattress size guide.

Are double beds bigger than queen beds?

Also known as a small double, queen beds are slightly smaller than a standard double.

Both are the same length (6’3”), but doubles are slightly wider than queen sizes, offering an extra 6 inches of space. It might not sound like much, but this extra room can make quite the difference come bedtime, whether you love to spread out on your own or cuddle up with your partner.

If you have the square footage to spare, you should also consider a king size or super king size bed. We also offer cosy single beds for those furnishing a smaller bedroom.

Why should I buy a double bed?

A double is arguably the most versatile bed size you can buy! Is your little one, not so little anymore and needs a bigger bed for their teen bedroom? Or maybe you’re working with limited square footage in a studio apartment? Perhaps you’d just like a bed frame that sleeps you and your partner while fitting into the floor plan of a small bedroom? A double bed is always an ideal choice!

What types of beds are available?

You’ll also find that our beds do so much more than just offer a good night’s sleep (although that’s not to be sniffed at).

For example, our ottoman beds and divan beds offer storage solutions. In contrast, our headboards can elevate your bedroom décor, adding colour and texture to the aesthetic. You can even find TV beds in double dimensions if you love nothing more than binge-watching boxsets in bed!
