A Murphy Bed is a great space saver in any room, and sometimes the room or the design requires an especially low Murphy Bed cabinet.
A horizontal wall bed is a great solution when the ceiling is low or the space available for a bed is narrow. The horizontal Murphy Bed resides in a cabinet that is shorter than a vertical Murphy Bed, and a horizontal wall bed extends into the room less than a vertical, as well.
For a kid's room, a horizontal twin size Murphy Bed is also less intimidating and easier to pull down, as less leverage is required to get it started.
If you want to build a horizontal Murphy Bed, you'll need to make sure you have the width, as they are 80 to 85 inches wide.
At Murphy Bed Depot, we offer several horizontal solutions:
- The DIY Kit allows you to build your own horizontal or vertical wall bed
- The Panel Bed Frame Kit also allows you to build your own horizontal or vertical wall bed, but adds a steel frame to the lift mechanism of the DIY Kit
- The Horizontal Murphy Bed Furniture comes with everything but the mattress
At this time we do not offer a horizontal frame that stands alone. All of the above products either require building or include a cabinet, because the lift mechanisms mount to the sides of the Murphy Bed Furniture.
