Types of folding beds
Based on the type of base, folding furniture is divided into classic, models with armored mesh, beds with a “spring snake” fastening or a slat structure.
Classic models are created from dense fabric, which is stretched along the perimeter of the bed by springs. The base can withstand loads of up to 100 kg.
The frame with armored mesh consists of intertwined metal pipes that are attached to the stock with springs. The model is lightweight, affordable, and practical. Folding furniture can sag, but does not stretch. Permissible weight – up to 150 kg.
The “spring snake” structure consists of curved metal rods held together by springs. The base is reliable and of high quality. This type of folding bed is characterized by its low price and light weight. The disadvantages of the model are the likelihood of deflections when the permissible mass is violated. The permitted load varies from 100 to 120 kg.
A folding bed on slats with a mattress includes a metal frame and wooden plates. Lamels are produced with a thickness of 8 mm. More durable structures - with elements of 12 mm. Many models are produced with an orthopedic base. The slatted structure distributes weight evenly, keeping the spine straight. The maximum permissible limit is 250 kg. The design allows for heat and moisture exchange without trapping condensation on the mattress.
Folding models vary in size and are divided into single, one-and-a-half, and double. The choice is also influenced by the purpose of the product. Modified furniture can combine several functions in transformable beds. They produce a folding ottoman bed, as well as comfortable-to-use furniture with a headrest.
Models differ in type of use: for city apartments and cottages, camping, children's, etc.
Products for apartments and houses are represented by budget options for folding beds with springs, slats, and tension structures. The models are easy to assemble and do not take up space in the room; they can be transported by car.
Tourist structures include products for hiking and expeditions. The models are produced in light weight - about 6 kg, have compact designs that fit into small cases and are easily carried in backpacks.
Children's products differ from models for adults in size, height, and design features.
How to choose the right folding bed
When choosing a model, you need to check the convenience of the folding mechanism. Difficulties in opening may indicate a poor quality mechanism. The required functions of the product are important. If you have a small room, you can buy a folding bed that contains 3 functions in 1 product. At night the model will become a sleeping place, during the day – a cabinet or table.
For trips outside the city and hiking, small-sized products in the budget category are suitable. Fabric for camping conditions must be wear-resistant - polypropylene, awning. The wire diameter should be from 2 mm, the spring diameter varies from 12 to 15 mm.
For a stationary resting place, models with wooden slats are suitable. Comfortable sleep will be ensured by a durable frame with a thick mattress. Elite folding beds are produced on the basis of slats. The products are equipped with wheels. The permitted load reaches 250 kg. The models are made from environmentally friendly materials, have orthopedic designs, and a durable metal frame.
The mattress in some models must be purchased separately. Orthopedic surfaces are the most comfortable. For filling, natural raw materials (wool, cotton) and synthetic compounds (holcon, polyurethane foam) are used.
Bed dimensions
The length of the product is selected according to the required height. In models for adults, the size should be 15 cm greater than a person’s height. The width suitable for relaxation is from 80 cm. A double bed reaching a width of 120 cm is suitable as a permanent sleeping place. When choosing a folding bed, the height of the product is important. Adults need at least 45 cm from the floor, children - 25 cm.
When purchasing, determine the permitted load on the furniture being transformed, since exceeding the norm will lead to breakage. The parameter depends on the type of structure and varies from 100 to 250 kg.
The value is affected by the frame material and the size of the pipes. For regular use, durable products with a maximum permitted weight of 150 kg are required. Such furniture will replace a full-fledged place to relax.
Transformable models are also produced in non-standard sizes, since the dimensions depend on the option of folding and combining pieces of furniture.
Folding bed design: convenient, practical and rational
When purchasing, you need to select a folding mechanism. The frame includes legs, a base, head parts, and hinge elements for connection. Folding furniture is made of reliable alloys with anti-corrosion coating.
The frame of the folding bed is made of steel or aluminum. Metal frames are suitable for models in an apartment or country house. The material is treated with polymer dyes with corrosion protection. Aviation aluminum is used in structures for hikes and trips outside the city. The material is lightweight, so the products can be transported.
The folding bed structure simply unfolds. Many models fold in half and have compact metal backs. Some beds are equipped with wheels for easy movement around the room.
The frame of a folding bed with slats consists of wooden slats. Curved bars support the orthopedic structure. The elements are slightly springy, which provides comfort and extends the service life of the model. The number of orthopedic lamellas is from 10 to 20 pcs. Wood slats are secured with rubber or plastic holders. The slats are also secured with metal supports on the sides of the structure.
Nightstand beds
A bedside table is a folding bed that, when folded, can be used as a nightstand or table. It has a metal frame. The base of the bed can be made of thick canvas, metal mesh or wooden slats. When using, a special mattress is required.
The folding bed has one or two headboards. When folded, they become the lid of the cabinet.
The frame of the bedside table folds in half. When unfolding, the support legs are lowered.
This is the simplest model of a bedside table.
