Super king bed frames give couples the space to sleep comfortably without compromise. At 180cm x 200cm (6ft x 6ft 6in), they suit larger master bedrooms and taller sleepers who find a standard king too short. At Land of Beds, we've been helping people find the right bed frame for over 50 years, with an honest approach and no pressure to buy. Whether you're after the warmth of a solid wooden frame, the clean lines of a metal design, or the hotel-style look of an upholstered fabric frame, our range covers every style and budget. Free mainland UK delivery, a Price Promise Guarantee, and expert advice seven days a week are included as standard.

A super king bed frame is a significant purchase and one that shapes the whole feel of a master bedroom. Get the size right, the material right, and the storage option right - and the rest of the decision becomes straightforward. Whether you're upgrading from a king size, moving into a larger space, or simply deciding that more room is non-negotiable, we can help you find a frame that fits your room, your style, and your budget. At Land of Beds, we've been doing this for over 50 years, and we're not here to push you towards anything that isn't right for you.
Three things determine whether a super king bed frame works for your room. Get these right and the rest - colour, headboard profile, finish - is much easier.
| Factor | Why It Matters | What to Check |
|---|---|---|
| Room size | A super king frame needs enough floor space not just to fit, but to allow comfortable movement around it. | Minimum room size of approximately 3.5m x 3.7m is recommended. Measure before you buy. |
| Material and style | Material affects durability, noise, airflow, and how the room looks. It is also the biggest visual decision you will make. | Wooden vs metal vs upholstered, construction quality, available finishes and colours |
| Storage needs | If you need under-bed storage, the frame type determines total capacity, access method, and whether side clearance is required. | Ottoman (gas-lift) vs side drawers vs end drawers vs no storage |

A super king mattress measures 180cm x 200cm. This is 30cm wider than a king size and 10cm longer - a meaningful difference for couples and taller sleepers. Your frame must match your mattress size exactly.
| Size | Mattress Dimensions | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Single (3ft) | 90 x 190cm | Children, teens, solo adults, guest rooms |
| Small Double (4ft) | 120 x 190cm | Solo sleepers wanting extra room, compact couples |
| Double (4ft 6) | 135 x 190cm | Couples (snug fit), guest rooms, smaller bedrooms |
| King Size (5ft) | 150 x 200cm | Couples wanting more width and length |
| Super King (6ft) | 180 x 200cm | Maximum comfort, larger master bedrooms, taller sleepers |
If your frame has side drawers, allow at least 50cm of clearance on the drawer side. Ottoman frames require enough vertical clearance to lift the base fully - check individual product listings for lift direction (end-opening or side-opening).
See our UK Bed Sizes Guide for room-by-room measuring advice.
The material and style of your frame affects durability, maintenance, airflow beneath the mattress, noise, and the overall character of the room. Here is a plain comparison of every type we stock.
| Type | Key Features | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Upholstered / Fabric Frames | Soft fabric finish, padded headboard, hotel-style look, wide range of colours and textures | Modern, cosy, or statement master bedrooms; those who want a padded surface to lean against |
| Wooden Bed Frames | Solid or engineered wood, natural grain, warm aesthetic, typically quieter than metal | Classic, warm, or Scandi interiors; buyers wanting long-lasting natural materials |
| Metal Bed Frames | Slimline profile, strong construction, open frame design for airflow | Minimalist, industrial, or vintage bedroom styles |
| Rattan Bed Frames | Natural woven rattan, light and airy appearance, distinctive texture | Coastal, boho, or natural-inspired interiors |
| Ottoman / Storage Frames | Gas-lift base reveals large under-bed storage area, no side clearance required | Bedrooms where storage space is limited |

In our showrooms, the most common reason customers move from a king to a super king is not room size - it is one partner consistently disturbing the other. More width genuinely reduces that. If you are on the fence about whether your room is large enough, come in and we will measure it with you.
Storage is worth thinking about at super king size, where the under-bed area is substantial. Here is how the main options compare.
| Storage Type | Pros | Things to Consider |
|---|---|---|
| Ottoman (gas-lift base) | Maximum under-bed capacity, no side clearance needed, clean aesthetic | Mattress lifts with the base. Check whether frame is end-opening or side-opening - this matters for room layout. |
| Side drawers | Easy daily access, no lifting required, practical for everyday items | Requires approximately 50cm side clearance per drawer. Less total capacity than ottoman. |
| End drawers | Accessible from the foot of the bed, keeps sides clear | Less total capacity than side drawers. Check your room allows access at the foot end. |
| No storage | Wider style choice, lighter frame, cleaner visual lines | Under-bed boxes or baskets can add practical storage if needed later. |
At super king size, ottoman frames are particularly good value for storage because the under-bed footprint is larger than any other UK size. If your bedroom is generous enough to hold a super king, the ottoman storage area is considerable.
The material your frame is made from affects how it looks, how long it lasts, how it sounds, and how it performs with your mattress.
| Material | Performance and Maintenance | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Solid Wood | Excellent durability - can last decades with proper care. Quiet with tight joinery. Good airflow via slatted base. Occasional wipe-down; can be refinished. | Classic, warm, or Scandi interiors |
| Engineered Wood (MDF) | Good durability - may not last as long as solid wood. Quiet. Good airflow via slatted base. Wipe-down only; cannot be sanded or refinished. | Budget-conscious buyers wanting a wood look |
| Metal | Good to excellent durability depending on gauge. Can creak over time as fixings loosen. Excellent airflow - open frame construction. Easy to wipe clean. | Minimalist, industrial, vintage styles |
| Upholstered (fabric) | Good durability - depends heavily on fabric quality. Very quiet. Moderate airflow. Spot clean; some covers are removable. | Contemporary, cosy, hotel-style master bedrooms |
| Rattan | Moderate durability. Quiet. Good airflow. Wipe-down only. | Boho, coastal, natural interior styles |

Super king frames cost more than smaller sizes across every material type. Budget accordingly, and factor in that a well-made frame protects your mattress investment.
| Budget | What You Get | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Under £599 | Entry-level materials - basic engineered wood, standard fabric, simple metal. Functional for lighter use. | Guest rooms, secondary bedrooms, shorter-term use |
| £600-£999 | Better construction, improved stability, wider style and storage choice. Where most master bedroom buyers land. | Everyday use in a main super king bedroom |
| £1,000+ | Premium materials - solid hardwood, high-specification fabric, superior joinery and finishes. Built to last considerably longer. | Long-term investment, master bedrooms, pairing with a quality mattress |
A well-constructed super king frame also extends the life of your mattress. A stable, supportive base protects the mattress from uneven wear in a way a cheaper frame cannot.

Not sure whether a bed frame or a divan is the right choice at super king size? Here is a plain comparison.
| Super King Bed Frames | Super King Divan Beds | |
|---|---|---|
| Base style | Sits on legs; slats or solid platform | Solid upholstered base, close to the floor |
| Airflow | Good - legs and slats allow circulation | Lower - sits flat with less circulation |
| Style options | Wide - wooden, metal, upholstered, rattan, many headboard options | Limited - neat and understated |
| Storage | Ottoman or drawer options on most storage models | Integrated drawers, often neater and more compact |
| Best for | Customers who want design variety and a visible statement piece | Customers who want practicality and integrated storage in a compact format |
Neither is objectively better - it depends what you need. Read our full comparison: Bed Frames vs Divan Beds

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What's the best super king bed frame to buy? | Depends on what matters most. If longevity is the priority, solid wood lasts longest. If storage is the priority, an ottoman frame gives the most capacity without needing side clearance - important in larger bedrooms where you want to keep the floor clear. If the look of the room is the main driver, upholstered fabric makes the biggest visual statement. If budget is the constraint, metal frames are the strongest entry point. Use the quick decision guide above to find the right starting point. |
| What mattress fits a super king bed frame? | A 180cm x 200cm mattress, sometimes listed as 6ft. This is the size all super king frames are built to take. Always match your mattress size exactly to your frame. For ottoman frames, check the gas-lift weight specification - some have both a minimum and maximum mattress weight for the mechanism to work correctly. |
| Do super king bed frames come with slats? | Most do. A slatted base supports the mattress and promotes airflow underneath, which helps it last longer and sleep cooler. Always check the individual product listing before ordering - some frames are sold without a base. |
| Is a super king bed frame better than a divan? | Neither is objectively better - it depends what you need. Bed frames offer far more style variety. Divans are more compact, lower profile, and often better value for purely practical setups. If how the bed looks in the room matters, a frame is usually the right choice. See our Divan Beds page for the full comparison. |
| How long should a super king bed frame last? | A quality solid wood or metal frame typically lasts 10 years or more with normal use. Engineered wood frames are reliable but tend to have a shorter lifespan, typically 5 to 8 years. Upholstered frames depend heavily on fabric quality. At super king size - often a main bedroom frame used daily - it's worth buying one step above entry level. |
| What's the difference between a super king and a king size bed frame? | A super king is 30cm wider and 10cm longer than a king. In practice, that extra width makes a real difference for couples - less disturbance, more room to move. The extra length benefits anyone over 6ft 2in. The trade-off is that your room needs to be larger to accommodate the frame comfortably. |
| Do you offer free delivery on super king bed frames? | Yes. Free mainland UK delivery on orders over £100 - this covers all super king bed frames. Some remote postcodes may incur a surcharge; check at checkout. Lead times vary - check the individual listing. Call 01928 242829 if you want to talk through delivery before ordering. |
| What's the difference between an ottoman and a storage frame with drawers? | Storage frames with drawers have side or end drawers for everyday access - no lifting required, but you need clearance at the side. Ottoman frames use a gas-lift mechanism to raise the entire mattress and base, revealing a large under-bed storage area. Ottoman storage offers more total capacity and requires no side clearance. Drawer storage is more convenient for items you access regularly. |
| Can I buy a super king bed frame on finance? | Yes. We offer finance on eligible orders, with interest-free options available on selected terms. See our finance page for eligibility and how to apply. |
| Do I need a specific mattress for a super king ottoman frame? | The mattress size is standard - 180cm x 200cm. What matters is the weight. Ottoman gas-lift mechanisms are rated for a weight range. Check the individual product listing for the minimum and maximum mattress weight the mechanism is designed to handle. Using a mattress that's too heavy or too light can affect how the lift operates. |
