Types of built-in beds in the closet
Folding furniture is gradually gaining popularity. Such an acquisition will allow you not to overload the room with too much furniture. You can enjoy a comfortable rest in a spacious bed, but at the same time your room will be free all day.
There are currently several models of built-in beds in the closet:
- A sleeping place that folds vertically. In this case, the bed is located in such a way that the head of the bed is directed downward.

Manufacturing materials
The warranty period for such beds varies from 3 to 10 years. It directly depends on the material of manufacture, the reliability of the mechanism, and the overall quality of the product. More often, models are sold without a mattress, so it is purchased separately. The following factors influence the choice:
- Owner's age. Ideal support and comfort for each age category are selected individually.
- Weight. If the owner weighs more than 90 kg, he should choose the option with increased rigidity.
- Lifestyle. Professional athletes need a firm mattress. For sedentary people, this factor is not so important.
- Health. Often, a physical condition requires a specific orthopedic model that minimizes discomfort.
Mattresses differ not only in the degree of hardness, but also in the type of filler. The option that retracts into the wall most often consists of the following material:
- Foam rubber. Used as an additional layer - as a base. May not provide ideal back support.
- Coconut coir. Natural filler, optimal for orthopedic mattresses. One of the most expensive types of raw materials.
- Latex. Elastic and flexible option. Suitable for products with increased rigidity and load capacity.
- Holofiber. Artificial raw materials with good consumer qualities. Breathable material that retains its performance properties for many years.

The base of the furniture is made of chipboard and natural wood. The frame of transforming beds is additionally equipped with metal elements. Laminated chipboard or MDF are inferior in quality to natural wood. Plastic facades are becoming increasingly popular due to their visual appeal and budget cost. For the inside of the product, it is better to choose a functional solution. After assembling the bed, there should not be a blank wall left. An original solution is a seamless mirror or a full-size cabinet with shelves. When choosing, pay attention to the following criteria:
- frame strength;
- warranty period of the mechanism;
- load capacity;
- the quality of the mattress, if it is included;
- functionality;
- type of mechanism;
- room decoration style.
The last factor plays a big role. In an expensive interior, a plastic bed will look out of place. The color scheme, texture, and quality of the material are reflected in the aesthetic appeal.

Built-in bed in bedroom closet
If your bedroom is shaped like a square or rectangle, but has a small area, then a stationary bed will take up a lot of space. As a result, there will be no room for passage at all in the room.
A built-in bed in a closet would be an excellent solution. You can purchase a model that folds headboard down. This model takes up little space, which will allow you to get the following advantages:
- Provide a comfortable sleeping area.
- Reduce the time it takes to make your bed.
- Get more space in the bedroom because the bed is in a folded position during the day.
- Equip the room with a wardrobe and a bed, located in a single structure.

The bed is folded by pressing a special button. This solution is very convenient because you don’t have to constantly remove and remove bedding.
Standard wardrobe bed design
When purchasing, it makes sense to pay attention to the quality of the mechanism for folding and unfolding the bed. The design must be reliable, so you cannot skimp on the quality of the product.
Lifting mechanisms
When planning to install a bed in the wall, I advise you to first think about a lifting mechanism.
Please note that you will often have to raise and lower the entire structure. And it weighs far from 2-3 kilograms.
Lifting systems are:
- manual;
- spring;
- based on gas lifts.
The manual mechanism is the simplest and most complex. It will have to be adjusted periodically, and great efforts must be made during transformation. There are no additional elements here.
The second option takes less effort. It has twisted springs built into it, which take the bulk of the load on themselves. It is important that the springs are made of strong carbon steel wires. The spring can last more than 20 years. But over time they make noise and squeak. Poor quality springs stretch and need to be replaced.
Gas lifts are the most convenient to use, but they are complicated. They operate on the basis of piston devices that are filled with compressed air. The effort applied is minimal, and the entire load falls on the elevators. The system is expensive, but practical. Suitable even for children.
Recently, systems with electric drive and remote control have begun to appear. Very expensive. But this is an ideal choice for modern people and those who have health problems. A person is not able to raise or lower the structure himself.

What is the reliability of beds with a folding mechanism?
Very often people are quite skeptical about new products. They tend to distrust new things and inventions. But in the case of transformable beds, you should not doubt or hesitate, because they provide 100% quality and reliability. Transformer beds are structures that, due to a special mechanism, can turn into a wardrobe, sofa, table and other furniture. To create them, natural wood is used (the most common materials are oak, ash, pine) or chipboard, since their purpose is not only to serve as a bed for sleeping, but also as a closet, a study, even a library. Such wooden structures in the form of a compartment can last for many years without needing repair. Beds are also characterized by wooden or plastic lattices under the mattress; for maximum strength, metal frames and inserts are used.

A bed made of natural wood is durable and environmentally friendly
It is not necessary to tie the bed to other furniture that is in the bedroom, and choose a sleeping place from the same collection with a wardrobe, dressing table, and bedside tables.
Since the frame is hidden from view, special attention in choosing colors is paid to the headboard, which is visible. It is desirable that there is a contrast with the walls - this will give the room dynamism and give it expressiveness.

Based on frame materials
When choosing suitable furniture, special attention is paid to the frame: the strength of the structure and service life depend on its quality. For the production of products, materials such as fiberboard, chipboard, MDF, natural wood, and metal are used. Wooden beds are preferable; they will last a long time and retain their aesthetic appearance.
| Material | Peculiarities |
| Fiberboard | Made from wood fibers, water and polymers. The material is thinner than chipboard. It has thermal insulation properties and good strength. Afraid of moisture. |
| MDF | The material contains sawdust, paraffin, and lignin. Environmentally friendly raw materials are used in the manufacture of furniture for kitchens and children's rooms. Dense material is often used for cladding the headset. The disadvantage is that the slabs weigh a lot, so the furniture is only supplemented with this component. It is often used to create a bed with a side headboard. |
| Chipboard | Made from sawdust and shavings with the addition of formaldehyde resin. This practical material is not recommended for use in rooms with high humidity. It is usually used to make the frame and bottom. |
| Solid wood | Natural material that will last a long time. It is easy to process, so designer models are often created from solid wood. It is expensive, this is its main disadvantage. |
| Metal | Metal beds with a lifting mechanism are highly durable and suitable for modern interiors. Disadvantages: monotonous design, massiveness. |
A bed with a lifting mechanism made of solid birch has beautiful natural textures and strength comparable in parameters to beech. Manufacturers also use the following types of wood: oak, walnut, pine.

How to choose?
To optimally choose a sleeping place, several important aspects should be taken into account:
- Determine the size of the sleeping place - you definitely cannot save on it. The bed should be comfortable and not “squeeze” during sleep, because the main thing is to feel comfortable in it. For two, the optimal sleeping place is 160-180 cm wide, for one teenager – up to 100 cm.
- Select a mechanism. The most modern one is with gas shock absorbers. It makes the base easy and convenient to open, and even a teenager can do it. From the point of view of practicality and durability, the mechanism with manual hinges is different - it is literally eternal, it does not have to be changed, but it is difficult to open.
- Select a base. All modern models have an orthopedic (slat) base with curved slats. It enhances the orthopedic properties of the mattress (evenly distributes the load on the spine during rest) and preserves its beneficial properties as much as possible. The slatted bottom allows the product to breathe.
- Select a frame. The base frame must be metal. Firstly, it is strong, and secondly, it is functional. A wooden base simply will not withstand frequent ups and downs, and besides, it is not so strong in its design.
- The opening side is determined individually and does not play a big role. For a small children's ottoman, horizontal opening will be more convenient, and for an adult double bed, vertical opening is more common.
