: Small Double Bed Frames

What Size is a Small Double Bed?

A small double bed, also known as a 4ft bed, measures 120cm wide by 190cm long, slightly narrower than a standard double but more generous than a single. It’s a popular choice for teenagers, solo sleepers who like more space, and rooms where a full-size double won’t quite fit. A common question we hear is: is a small double OK for two adults? While it’s possible, it’s best suited for occasional use or couples who don’t mind a snug fit. Pairing your small double bed frame with the right mattress ensures maximum comfort even in a smaller footprint.

Who Are Small Double Beds Best For?

A small double sits right between a single and a full double, which makes it one of the most flexible sizes we sell. It works brilliantly for teenagers who've outgrown a single but don't quite have room for a full double, for guest rooms that need to sleep an adult comfortably without eating up the whole space, and for studio flats or box rooms where every centimetre matters. If you're weighing it up against a full double bed, the small double gives you a genuine space saving without sacrificing much comfort.

Pairing With The Right Mattress

A small double mattress measures 120cm by 190cm, so it's worth double-checking your measurements before you order, especially if you're replacing an old bed. Browse our mattress range to find the right firmness and material for how you sleep, or add one directly from your chosen bed's product page for a complete set-up delivered together.
