Frequently Asked Questions About Small Double Beds 4ft

What size is a small double bed?

A small double bed measures 4 feet wide by 6 feet 3 inches long (120cm x 190cm). This makes it 30cm wider than a single bed but 15cm narrower than a standard double bed, perfect for compact spaces that need more sleeping room than a single provides.

Are small double beds the same as queen size beds in the UK?

Yes, in the UK, queen size beds and small double beds are the same size - 4ft x 6ft 3in (120cm x 190cm). This differs from US sizing where queen beds are larger, so always check dimensions when shopping.

What's the difference between small double beds 4ft and double beds 4ft6?

The key difference is width: small double beds are 4ft (120cm) wide while double beds are 4ft 6in (135cm) wide - that's 6 inches or 15cm difference. Both are 6ft 3in long. Small double beds are ideal for solo sleepers or cosy couples, while double beds suit two adults who prefer more space.

Can two adults sleep comfortably on a small double bed?

Two adults can share a small double bed, but it will be cosy. Each person gets approximately 2ft of width, which is fine for couples who like to cuddle or sleep close together. For regular sharing, consider upgrading to our double beds 4ft6 for extra comfort.

Are three quarter beds the same as small double beds?

Yes, three quarter beds and small double beds are identical - both measure 4ft x 6ft 3in (120cm x 190cm). The term "three quarter" refers to being three-quarters the width of a king size bed, while "small double" describes being smaller than a standard double bed.

Do small double beds require special bedding?

Yes, small double beds need specific bedding sized at 120cm x 190cm. Standard double bedding (135cm x 190cm) will be too wide and won't fit properly. We can recommend suppliers of quality small double bedding to complete your bedroom setup.

What storage options are available for 4ft beds?

We offer multiple storage solutions: small double divan beds with 2 or 4 built-in drawers, small double ottoman beds with full under-bed lift-up storage (providing 4x more space than drawers), and combination storage featuring both drawers and lift-up sections.

Are small double beds suitable for teenagers?

Absolutely! Small double beds are perfect for teenagers, providing 30cm more width than single beds for growing bodies while fitting comfortably in typical children's bedroom dimensions. The extra space accommodates growth spurts and changing sleep patterns.
