If you've ordered a Murphy Bed Frame or DIY Kit, your order should leave our St. Augustine warehouse within 2 business days, if there are no delays. We ship these orders with FedEx Ground or USPS Priority Mail, and typically, time in transit varies from 2-10 days.

If you've ordered a Murphy Bed Furniture or Cabinet system, your order should leave us in about 8 weeks, if there are no delays. Typically, time in transit varies from 2-10 days.

Frames & DIY Kits:

If you've ordered a frame or hardware kit, your bed will arrive in 2-4 boxes, varying in weight from 22 to 71 pounds each.

If you've ordered Murphy Bed Furniture, your order will arrive on 1-2 pallets, completely un-assembled, and flat-packed. We cover the pallet in scrap melamine and/or plywood, to protect your cabinetry in transit.

Standard Shipping Process: You'll need tin snips to cut the banding off of the pallet, and each part will need to be inspected and carried in from the curb. The parts weigh between 2 and 55 pounds each. As you can see, the pallet is large. The freight company will have a lift-gate equipped truck, and they are responsible to leave the pallet at your curbside. The driver will not unpack or carry the pallet inside, so it's recommended that you have help ready when your pallet arrives. When we ship your pallet, we will email you a tracking number and a photo of your pallet. The freight company will then contact you while your pallet is in transit, to schedule a day of delivery. The hardware and instructions for your Murphy Bed is all included, and will be packed inside the boxes strapped atop the pallet.

Upgraded "White Glove" Delivery: Delivery to any room in your home, even the second floor! This option is a two-person delivery team will unload the pallet, with placement of the parts in the room of your choice. It includes packing debris removal. This means our delivery driver will haul away the pallet for you upon request. FedEx will contact you directly to arrange the delivery. *Not available in all areas.

After you've checked the tracking on all of your packages, please contact Murphy Bed Depot immediately is anything is missing or damaged. We recommend all customers receiving pallets sign the bill of lading with "Possible Internal Damage" just in case some damage is found after the freight driver leaves.

We would not describe any of our products as "easy" to assemble. We have attempted to make it as simple as we can, but it does take some understanding of the use of tools and hardware to assemble and install any Murphy Bed. We like to say, "It is do-able for an experienced do-it-yourself-er."

For a Next Bed or Door Bed Frame, it takes our professional and experienced installers 1-2 hours to assemble and install one.

For a Murphy Bed Furniture order, the installation time can vary widely, depending on the experience and skill of the installer. It takes our installers 4 hours minimum for a Boaz Bifold Bookcase Bed, and 2 hours minimum for a Panel Bed. But, our installers have done many, and do not have to stop to watch any videos, figure out which parts are which, gather tools, or read the instructions. Some customers are able to install a bed in about twice this time, while it takes others quite a bit longer.

All of our Murphy Beds can be installed with wall mounts, and the Next Bed and Door Bed Frames can instead be mounted into the floor. The Murphy Door Bed Frame can be purchased with optional wall mount brackets, while the Next Bed includes wall mount brackets with wood screws. The wall mount brackets secure into the bottom plate (the 2x4 that runs under your studs) on a standard frame-construction wall. If the wall is made of some other material, such as masonry, additional anchors will need to be obtained to secure the wall mount brackets into the wall. There is no need to remove the baseboard, but if you have quarter-round, that will need to be removed, so that the frame can sit evenly on the floor. Our Panel Bed systems secure to the sides of a cabinet, which is then secured to the studs, etc. at the top. If using the floor-mount on a Door Bed Frame (or Next Bed), there is no need to also use the wall mount brackets.

We offer installs locally in Northeast Florida by our staff. We also have contact information for 3rd party professional and experienced installers available in Southeast Florida, Southern California, and in the New York City area. Please contact us for an installation quote, if you're interested.

The answer to this question is generally 8-11 inches. On our Panel Beds, the mattress thickness is strictly restricted to approximately 11 inches by the leg-bar that goes between the legs of the Panel Bed. On our Door Bed and Next Bed Frames; once a mattress thicker than 11 inches is placed on either of these beds, holding the mattress up while the frame is vertical becomes a problem. We do have one solution for this, which is easier to pull off on the Door Bed Frame: A tilting head board.

The Door Bed Frame and the Next Bed are similar options, and we get many questions about the differences. We use the Door Bed Frame on all of our local Library Bed installations, as it is the most tried-and-true model we offer, and it takes up 1" less depth, when vertically stored. Both will last, and both have a lifetime warranty on the steel frame.

So, it's really a matter of personal preference in the end.

Yes, we sell our Panel Beds and our Murphy Door Beds in King Size, and the DIY Kit is universal, allowing a King Size, as well. You can purchase the Panel Bed as either a frame kit, which requires building your own cabinet, or as an entire ready-to-assemble cabinet with the frame included.

Our Library Beds do not come in King Size, and we do not offer a California King.
