A double bed and mattress refers to a bed frame and mattress designed to fit the standard Australian double size, measuring 137 cm wide × 188 cm long. In simple terms, it’s a complete sleeping setup that offers more space than a single bed while remaining more compact than a queen—making it one of the most versatile choices for Australian homes.
Across Australia, double beds with matching mattresses are commonly used in apartments, guest rooms, teenage bedrooms, and smaller master bedrooms where comfort and space efficiency need to work together.
Understanding sizing is essential to ensure proper fit, comfort, and longevity.
Width: 137 cm
Length: 188 cm
Both the bed frame and mattress must be designed specifically for the Australian double size, as international sizing can vary.
Single: 92 × 188 cm
King Single: 107 × 203 cm
Double: 137 × 188 cm
Queen: 153 × 203 cm
King: 183 × 203 cm
Here’s why this matters: a correctly sized double bed and mattress prevents mattress movement, improves support, and ensures bedding fits properly.
Double beds come in a wide range of styles to suit different lifestyles and interior aesthetics.
Classic frames designed purely to support the mattress, available in timber, metal, or upholstered finishes.
Include drawers or concealed compartments beneath the mattress—ideal for smaller homes.
Use hydraulic mechanisms to lift the mattress and reveal full under-bed storage.
Feature padded headboards and fabric finishes for added comfort and a hotel-style look.
Low-profile designs that suit modern and minimalist interiors.
