Bed Assembly in London
We assemble the headboard, footboard and side rails, then fit the centre support and slats supplied for the frame. We check that the slats sit properly and that drawers or lift-up storage operate where fitted.
We assemble flat pack bed frames in London homes. Send the model, size and details of any drawers or lift-up storage, and tell us where the bed will stand.
- Timber and upholstered frames
- Slats and centre supports
- Storage drawers and lift-up bases
Tell us which bed frame you have ordered
A product link tells us more than the mattress size. A double platform frame, an upholstered bed with a tall headboard and a bed with storage drawers can all take the same mattress. They come with different parts and need different space to assemble. Send the full product name, size and configuration. If the retailer offers more than one version, tell us which one you selected.
For timber or metal frames, list any separate centre rail and slat packs shown on the order. Some frames are sold with a choice of slats. For upholstered frames, identify any separate headboard, side panels or fabric-covered base pieces. Keep each pack with its order so the fixings can be matched when the pieces are opened.
If you ordered two beds of different sizes for the same property, label them by room. Give us both item codes even if the frames have the same finish. A similar pair of cartons might contain parts for two different sizes, and the markings help distinguish them.
| Frame | Details to send |
|---|---|
| Timber or metal | Model, frame size and slat pack. |
| Upholstered | Headboard, side panels and separate fittings. |
| Drawer storage | Drawer count and which side needs access. |
| Lift-up storage | Exact model and mechanism shown on the order. |
Leave space for storage to open
Decide where the headboard will stand and check what sits around the sides of the bed. For drawers, make room for them to open past a bedside cabinet, skirting or another piece of furniture. If you need the drawers on one side only, confirm which layout your model supports and tell us what you have ordered.
For a lift-up storage frame, send the retailer listing or assembly instructions. Some bases open from the foot of the bed and others open from the side. Mention sloped ceilings, a window sill, low shelving or a nearby wall if they affect how the base will open. The exact frame and lifting arrangement are useful details for the enquiry.
Tell us if the frame will be assembled in a room with very little space. A box room may fit the finished bed but leave little space to lay down a side rail. If you are keeping another bed in the room until the new one is ready, mention that before booking so there is time to plan the build area.
- Send the bed model, size and product link.
- Tell us which storage components are on the order.
- Check the clearance around the headboard and storage.
- Tell us the floor, route into the room and any missing cartons.
How the bed assembly visit works
Show the assembler where you want the bed and where its boxes are. We bring assembly tools and use the fittings supplied with the frame. The parts depend on the design, but may include headboard and footboard connections, side rails, a centre support and a slatted base. If the model includes drawers or a separate storage base, identify the cartons when the job starts.
If parts have already been opened, keep the instructions, fasteners and support pieces together. Tell us if the frame was partly built, if a bracket is bent or if any items are missing. The assembler can review what is available and explain which parts of the job can proceed. Keep the item label so you can identify any replacement with the supplier.
When the build is complete, check the final position and look at how the drawers or other fitted parts work. If the bed needs room for a separate bedside cabinet or chest, show us the intended arrangement at the start so the frame can be positioned with those pieces in mind.
| Check | What helps on the day |
|---|---|
| Cartons | Leave all frame and fitting packs together. |
| Floor area | Make room to lay the rails and headboard flat. |
| Final position | Mark the headboard wall and storage clearance. |
| Existing furniture | Flag anything still occupying the build area. |
Request a quote for one bed or several
For a single frame, send its model, size, postcode and whether all the cartons have arrived. For several rooms, list every bed against its destination. If you need the team to assemble a matching chest or wardrobe, add each item separately. This gives us the information to discuss the full job instead of working from a general description of the bedroom set.
Tell us how the furniture will get to the room. A headboard can be wider than a landing or lift doorway even when the other pieces are narrow. If your property has a basement entrance, tight staircase or restricted unloading, mention it. Send photos or measurements if the route is awkward and you already have that information.
If the furniture is still at the shop, ask about collection and delivery when you enquire. If the retailer is bringing it independently, wait until you have a date for the full order. Storage fittings or slats may be dispatched separately and are easy to overlook if the main frame arrives first.
| Detail | Useful information |
|---|---|
| Model | Product link, size and frame material. |
| Storage | Drawers, lift-up mechanism or a separate base. |
| Quantity | Number of beds and any additional bedroom furniture. |
| Access | Postcode, floor and any delivery or stair restrictions. |
When the bed is part of a larger order
Group the cartons by room before the assembly date. In a household move or a newly furnished flat, several bedroom orders may arrive together. Check that the slats and support packs belong to the right frame. Keep the mattress clear of the build area until there is space to move it, and tell us if the bedroom is still being decorated.
A room plan can be useful if more than one person is making decisions about the layout. Send the preferred headboard wall and the side you want to keep clear. If you want a bed and wardrobe built in the same room, allow space for the doors and drawers of both. Send the wardrobe model with the bed details so we can discuss both in one enquiry.
If the mattress is arriving separately, mention when it is due and where it will be left. The room still needs space for the headboard and frame to be built. In a tight bedroom, it can help to keep a wrapped mattress outside the work area until you have reviewed the frame position.
If you are replacing a bed in a room that is still being used, tell us whether the existing frame will be out of the way before the visit. A large headboard or old storage base can take up the floor area we need for the new build. Ask about dismantling separately if the old frame is a flat pack and you need help taking it apart.
