Do It Yourself DIY Murphy Bed Kit

The DIY Kit allows you to build a Murphy Bed that has no doors to open, but instead has a face panel that folds down, becoming the bottom of the bed.


For those who want to build their entire bed frame from wood. The DIY Kit includes the same Steel Balance Lift Mechanism, Springs, and Legs as the Panel Bed Frame Kit, but without the Steel Bed Frame, allowing you to build your own frame from your own wood.

The photos show what CAN BE built, using our DIY Kit. You get to source and choose the style of 3/4"-thick wood you'll use to build the cabinet frame and face panels.

The DIY Kit is a Panel Bed Kit that allows you to build a Wall Bed that has no doors to open but instead has a face panel that folds down, becoming the bottom of the bed.

If you'd like us to manufacture all the wood parts, too, click here to look at our Panel Bed Cabinets.

DIY Murphy Bed Kit ContentsOur DIY Kit includes what you need to get started building your own Panel Bed System:

  • Build Your Cabinet: Following our free instructions, your DIY Kit mounts to your cabinet made of 3/4" thick material, which mounts onto your wall, at the top of the cabinet. Note: no cabinetry or wood frame parts are included in this kit. For a bed-in-a-cabinet system, click here.
  • Lift and Lower: One set of steel Spring-Balance-Lift Mechanisms (SBLMs), which secure to the sides of your cabinet, to raise and lower the panel bed
  • Spring Loaded: 18 springs, to allow for various weight mattresses and face panels
  • Sturdy Feet: One pair of high-strength tubular 13" legs with a segmented leg-connector bar
  • Bring Your Mattress: The DIY Kit works with any mattress up to 11 inches in thickness (Mattress not included)
  • Vertical or Horizontal Mount: Mount your Bed horizontally, with the included segmented leg rod.
  • In stock item: All of our Frame and DIY kits ships free from our warehouse in St Augustine, FL, within 5 business days, via FedEx ground (which takes 3-7 business days).

Great product but a lot of work!!!

Overall the product is great. The directions are mostly well-organized and well-thought out. However, this is not a simple project and will take a fair amount of skill and craftsmanship to do correctly and with precision. I am a rather experienced DIYer, but is still took about 5 weekends of work to get it all cut, painted and installed. It also took a significant amount of intuition. Just be prepared. But if you want a quality murphy bed at a great price, you can't beat it!

Vertical King

My Overall experience is fine., I am a professional woodworker. I noticed that the king bed cut sheets varied in proportion to the other bed sizes /stated mattress sizes. I adjusted my cut sheets to accommodate the variation. It worked out great. I had to also create a different scenario for the rod that connects the feet.(due to the expansion) My clients had purchased an 11” mattress and I also overlaid the door with a chevron wood pattern which effected the toe height and its distance from front . I also had to expand the box frame slightly. So, while I altered the design for the project requirements and a proper king mattress, the hardware worked great. Thanks Murphy Bed Depot.
