Bedroom furniture, planned around sleep

Bed, bedside tables, blackout curtains and soft light, planned around how you sleep and dress.

In short

A Home4U bedroom plan starts with the bed size and the space around it: 60 cm each side, 75 cm where a wardrobe door opens. Irish beds follow UK sizes, from a 90 × 190 cm single to a 180 × 200 cm super king.

Headboard

A padded headboard for reading in bed.

We check its height above the mattress, the fabric and the wall fixing.

How much space does a bedroom need?

Start from 60 cm walkway each side of the bed and 55 cm rug past each side of the bed. Your floor plan decides the rest.

Bedroom questions.

Still unsure? Send us the room and ask.

What are the standard bed sizes in Ireland?

Ireland uses UK sizes: single 90 × 190 cm, small double 120 × 190 cm, double 135 × 190 cm, king 150 × 200 cm and super king 180 × 200 cm.

How much space do you need around a bed?

At least 60 cm on each side you get in from, and 75 cm where a wardrobe door opens beside the bed.

Upholstered or wooden headboard?

Upholstered if you read in bed; wood if you want something easy to wipe. We check the headboard height against your mattress depth.

Do you supply blackout curtains?

Yes, lined to the window and planned with the rail and the radiator in mind. Need the wardrobe built in? See fitted wardrobes.
