King Bed Frames

(596 products)

A king bed frame gives couples, and anyone sharing with kids or pets, room to spread out. Choose upholstered frames with tall headboards, timber and metal styles, or storage beds with drawers or gas lift bases. A king needs a generous room, so measure for walking space around the sides and foot, and check the frame fits through doors and up stairs. Pair it with king mattresses, bedside tables and quilt covers.

How to choose king bed frames

King or king single

This range includes both king and king single frames, so check the size before you buy. A standard Australian king mattress is about 183 x 203 cm, built for couples. A king single is about 107 x 203 cm, a longer, wider single that suits teens and tall kids. A frame must match your mattress size exactly.

Storage options

  • Gas lift beds raise the whole base so you can use the space underneath for bulky items like spare bedding and suitcases.
  • Drawer beds have drawers in the sides or foot, which is easier for everyday things.
  • Open frames on legs leave space for under bed boxes and are easier to vacuum under.

Materials and style

Choose from timber and metal frames, or upholstered beds in fabric, velvet or PU leather with padded bedheads. Some styles add LED lights. Colours run mostly to black, white and grey, with beige and cream options.

Price and setup

Frames start from about $80, with most around $250 to $400 and storage beds toward the top. Artiss, Oikiture and Levede are among the brands here. Most arrive flat packed, and larger storage beds take time to build, so plan for two people. For more, see gas lift beds, headboards and queen bed frames.

King Bed Frames: common questions

What size is a king bed frame in Australia?

A standard Australian king mattress measures about 183 x 203 cm, and the frame will be a little bigger than that once you add the bedhead and sides. Check the overall frame dimensions in each listing, and allow at least 60 cm of walking space around the sides and foot.

What is the difference between a king and a king single?

A king is about 183 cm wide and made for two adults. A king single is about 107 cm wide, wider than a standard single and the same length as a king. King singles suit teens, tall kids and guest rooms. Both are listed in this range, so check the size before ordering.

Do I need a box spring with a king bed frame?

No. Bed frames in the range have a slatted or solid base that supports the mattress directly, so you do not need a box spring or ensemble base. Just check the mattress size matches the frame. Pair it with one of our king mattresses if you need one.

Is a gas lift bed better than a bed with drawers?

A gas lift bed gives you the most storage, using the whole area under the mattress, but you lift the mattress to get to it. Drawers hold less but are easier for things you use often. If the bed sits against walls on both sides, a gas lift may be more practical.

How much weight can a king bed frame hold?

Load limits vary by design and material, so check the listing for each frame. Steel and solid timber frames with centre support legs are usually the sturdiest for two adults. Frames marked heavy duty have extra support built in.

Are king bed frames hard to assemble?

Most arrive flat packed with tools and instructions. Simple metal frames go together quickly, while upholstered and storage beds with gas struts or drawers take longer. Unpack everything in the bedroom, check all parts are there and build it with two people.
