Product Overview

The Relyon Contemporary Design is an upholstered headboard with a modern square panel design and neat button detailing where the panels meet, available in Single, Small Double, Double, King Size and Super King Size. It can be ordered as a bed fixing on struts model, with a 70cm panel that attaches to the divan base on two wooden fixing posts, or as a 135cm slim fit floor standing model that extends to the floor and aligns with the width of the mattress and divan base. The Relyon Contemporary Design is available in a wide range of Relyon fabrics and colours, is made in Somerset, UK from FSC certified timber, is backed by a 10 year manufacturer's guarantee, and is designed for use with Relyon divan bases.

Who Is This Headboard For?

The Relyon Contemporary Design is an upholstered headboard with a square panel and button design, available in Single to Super King Size and a wide range of Relyon fabrics and colours, with a choice of bed fixing on struts or slim fit floor standing.

Best for

  • Customers with a Relyon divan bed - designed for use with Relyon divan bases, so it is guaranteed to fit without modification.
  • Customers who want a finished, cohesive look - the headboard is available in the Relyon fabric range, so it can be matched to a Relyon divan base.
  • Customers who like a modern, structured style - the square panels and button detailing give a tailored, contemporary look without being overly decorative.
  • Customers who want a choice of height - the 70cm strutted version sits neatly above the mattress, while the 135cm slim fit floor standing version makes more of a statement.
  • Customers who do not want to drill into walls - both fixing options attach to the divan base, so no wall fixing is needed.

Not ideal for

  • Customers with a non-Relyon bed - this headboard is designed for use with Relyon divan bases. Fit on non-Relyon bases cannot be guaranteed.
  • Customers who prefer a plain, smooth headboard - the square panels and buttons give the Contemporary Design a more detailed, structured finish.
  • Customers who need wall-mounting - this headboard is designed to attach to the divan base, not to fix to the wall.

Worth knowing:

  • This is a headboard only. A divan base and mattress are not included and are sold separately.
  • Bolts for attaching the headboard to the divan base are not supplied with the headboard - they are delivered with the divan base.
  • The strutted version's height can be adjusted on its fixing posts. The slim fit floor standing version sits on the floor, so its height is fixed.

Inside This Headboard

Square Panel with Button Detail
What it is: An upholstered headboard made up of large square panels, with neat buttons set where the panels meet and a clean, straight-edged outline.
How it helps you: A modern, tailored design that adds structure and interest to the bedroom without feeling fussy. The square panels create a crisp, contemporary focal point above the bed.

Upholstery & Fabric Choice
What it is: The headboard is upholstered in a wide range of Relyon fabrics and colours, applied over a frame made from FSC certified timber.
How it helps you: Choosing from the Relyon fabric range means you can match the headboard to your Relyon divan base for a complete, coordinated set, or pick a fabric that complements your wider bedroom scheme.

Bed Fixing on Struts
What it is: Two wooden fixing posts (struts) are attached to the back of the headboard. These insert into pre-drilled holes in the divan base and are secured with bolts.
How it helps you: The traditional, stable fixing method. The headboard sits at panel height against the base and is firmly attached so it does not shift or creak, and its height can be adjusted on the fixing posts. Note: bolts are supplied with the divan base, not the headboard.

Slim Fit Floor Standing
What it is: The headboard extends from the top of the panel to the floor and aligns with the width of the mattress and divan base. It sits behind the base, and the wooden fixing posts on the back of the headboard are bolted to the divan base.
How it helps you: Gives the look of a tall, statement headboard without any wall fixing. The headboard is securely attached to the base so it will not shift, and the floor-to-panel design creates a cleaner, more furniture-like finish than the strut version.

How it Compares

Vs a plain or non-branded headboard: The Contemporary Design is made to match the Relyon fabric range and is designed for use with Relyon divan bases, so it fits without guesswork and completes a coordinated set. It is also built on an FSC certified timber frame and backed by a 10 year guarantee, which most generic upholstered headboards do not offer. If you do not have a Relyon divan, or simply want a basic headboard for a spare room, a generic option may be the more practical choice.

Vs other Relyon headboards in the range: The Contemporary Design sits towards the modern, structured end of the Relyon range, with large square panels and subtle button detailing. It is more detailed than a smooth or simply channelled panel, but cleaner and less formal than deep buttoned or winged styles. If you prefer a plain finish, a smooth panel design in the range will suit you better.

Vs other headboards at Land of Beds: The Contemporary Design is a premium branded headboard, sitting above entry-level upholstered headboards in price and offering brand-matched fabrics, a choice of two fixing methods and a long guarantee. Browse our full range of headboards to compare styles, heights and fixing methods.

10 Year Guarantee

The Relyon Contemporary Design is backed by Relyon's 10 year manufacturer's guarantee against defects in materials and workmanship, covering the frame and upholstery. This reflects Relyon's confidence in the quality and durability of their headboards, giving you long-term peace of mind.

    This fits our Super King divan superbly, it looks the part and we are glad we went for a large headboard. It sits on the floor but slides into grooves at the back of the divan so it is firm and wont move. We are very pleased with the headboard.

    This headboard is very nice. It has a good texture and makes the bed look complete. Being not as high as other headboards, it doesn't monopolise the room, but is a nice touch.

Customer Questions & Answers

  • What is the difference between the two fixing options?

    The bed fixing on struts version has a 70cm (27.5'') panel on two wooden fixing posts, which bolt to the divan base so the headboard sits above the mattress. The slim fit floor standing version is 135cm (53'') tall, extends to the floor and aligns with the width of the mattress and divan base for a taller, statement look.

  • How do I attach the Contemporary Design headboard to my divan base?

    Find the pre-drilled holes in the back of the divan base and pierce the fabric over them. Position the headboard against the base, then bolt the wooden fixing posts on the back of the headboard to the base. The slim fit floor standing version either sits on the floor or is just slightly elevated.

  • Can I adjust the height of the headboard?

    The bed fixing on struts version can be adjusted on its wooden fixing posts to suit your bed height. The slim fit floor standing version sits on the floor, so its height is fixed at 135cm (53'').

  • Can I use the Contemporary Design headboard on a non-Relyon bed?

    The Contemporary Design is designed for use with Relyon divan bases, so we recommend pairing it with a Relyon bed. Fit on non-Relyon bases cannot be guaranteed.

  • Are the fixing bolts included with the headboard?

    No. Fixing bolts are not supplied with the headboard - they are delivered with the divan base.
