Custom Size Mattresses β€” Cut to Your Exact Dimensions

A custom size mattress is a mattress made to dimensions that differ from the standard UK bed sizes β€” single (90 x 190cm), double (135 x 190cm), king (150 x 200cm) and super king (180 x 200cm). If your bed base falls outside these measurements by even a few centimetres, a custom size mattress is the correct solution. We cut custom size mattresses to any length and width with no extra charge for non-standard dimensions, in your choice of foam specification.

Custom mattress sizes are needed more commonly than most people expect. A bed frame that is 138cm wide rather than the standard 135cm double will not take a standard double mattress without an unsightly gap down each side. A platform bed built into a room at 185cm rather than the standard 190cm length will leave a standard mattress overhanging the end. In both cases a custom size mattress β€” cut to the actual dimensions β€” is the only proper solution. We have been cutting mattresses to custom sizes for over 40 years from our Birmingham workshop.

Standard UK Size Dimensions Custom Size Alternative
Small Single 75 x 190cm Any width or length β€” e.g. 70 x 185cm, 80 x 190cm
Single 90 x 190cm Any width or length β€” e.g. 85 x 190cm, 92 x 195cm
Double 135 x 190cm Any width or length β€” e.g. 130 x 190cm, 138 x 200cm
King 150 x 200cm Any width or length β€” e.g. 145 x 200cm, 155 x 210cm
Super King 180 x 200cm Any width or length β€” e.g. 175 x 200cm, 185 x 205cm

Everything You Need to Know

Open any section for more detail

Antique and vintage bed frames pre-date the standardisation of modern mattress sizes. A Victorian or Edwardian double bed is frequently 127cm or 132cm wide rather than the modern 135cm standard β€” close enough to look like a standard double but too different for a standard mattress to fit properly.

European bed frames use different standard dimensions from UK beds. A European double (140 x 200cm) and a European king (160 x 200cm) are both non-standard in the UK, and a custom size mattress is needed for either.

Built-in alcove beds and platform beds are made to fit the available space in the room rather than a standard mattress size. If the alcove is 188cm long, a 190cm mattress will not fit and a 185cm standard length does not exist β€” a custom 188cm mattress is the solution.

Caravans, motorhomes and campervans almost universally require a custom mattress size. Caravan bed platforms are designed around the floor plan and manufacturer's measurements, not domestic mattress sizes. See our caravan mattress range for model-specific information.

Bespoke furniture and joinery β€” a bed frame made by a carpenter or furniture maker is built to the customer's specification, which may or may not align with standard mattress sizes. A custom size mattress ensures a proper fit regardless of the frame dimensions.

Children's beds and bunk beds β€” particularly imported or older bunk bed frames β€” are frequently a non-standard width. A custom size mattress cut to the exact width of the bunk ensures a safe, snug fit with no gaps at the sides.

Always measure the bed base β€” not the old mattress. Measure the full internal length and width of the base, taking each measurement twice to confirm. If the two readings differ, measure a third time and use the most consistent figure.

For a rectangular custom size mattress, length and width are all we need. For any non-rectangular shape β€” corner cuts, curved ends, angled sides β€” additional measurements are needed. A photograph of the base from above alongside a tape measure is the most reliable way to communicate an unusual shape.

A note on thickness: for most bed frames, any depth is suitable and the choice is personal preference. For bunk beds and mid-sleepers, measure the distance from the base to the top of the safety rail β€” the mattress must sit below this height. For drop-down motorhome beds, check the clearance in the raised position and the weight capacity of the lifting mechanism before choosing a specification.

Reflex Foam β€” Standard 33kg/mΒ³

Firm, supportive and the most affordable custom mattress option. Suitable for everyday use, guest beds and any application where value and practicality are the priority. Available from 10cm depth.

Reflex Foam β€” Premium 39kg/mΒ³

Higher density gives better support and significantly longer service life. Worth the modest additional cost for a custom mattress used as a main sleeping surface. Same firm character as standard reflex.

Memory Foam

Moulds to body shape, relieving pressure points and reducing motion transfer. Tencel breathable cover as standard. The most popular upgrade for custom size mattresses used as primary bedroom mattresses.

Novotex Latex Foam

Naturally hypoallergenic, highly breathable and the most durable custom mattress specification. Retains its shape over years of regular use. Ideal for anyone with allergies or sensitive skin.

Pocket Sprung

Individually wrapped springs moving independently β€” the finest sleep quality of all specifications. At 25cm deep, a pocket sprung custom size mattress delivers a genuinely luxurious sleeping experience in any size.

European bed frames use different standard dimensions from UK beds and are a common reason for needing a custom size mattress in the UK. The most common European sizes are:

  • European Single: 90 x 200cm (10cm longer than UK single)
  • European Double: 140 x 200cm (5cm wider and 10cm longer than UK double)
  • European King: 160 x 200cm (10cm wider than UK king, 10cm longer)
  • European Super King: 180 x 200cm (same width as UK super king but 10cm longer)

If you have a bed frame purchased in Europe or from a European retailer, measure the base carefully before ordering β€” do not assume a UK standard size will fit. We make custom mattresses to all European sizes and to any other dimension you require.

Every custom size mattress is handmade to order in our Birmingham workshop. Lead times from order to dispatch:

  • Reflex foam mattresses: 7–10 working days
  • Memory foam mattresses: 10–14 working days
  • Novotex latex foam mattresses: 10–14 working days
  • Pocket sprung mattresses: 14–21 working days

Delivery is free to most UK mainland addresses. Your mattress arrives vacuum-packed and reaches full size within a few hours of being unrolled.

Guarantee: all custom size mattresses are covered by a 3–10 year guarantee depending on specification. Our Perfect Fit Promise means if we cut your mattress to the wrong dimensions, we will remake it completely free of charge.

Custom Size Mattress Questions

Common questions about ordering a custom size mattress

What is a custom size mattress?
+

A custom size mattress is a mattress made to dimensions outside the standard UK sizes β€” single (90 x 190cm), double (135 x 190cm), king (150 x 200cm) and super king (180 x 200cm). If your bed base is even a few centimetres different from these standard sizes, a custom size mattress is the correct solution. We make custom size mattresses to any length and width at no extra charge.

How do I know if I need a custom size mattress?
+

Measure your bed base β€” length and width β€” and compare the measurements against UK standard sizes. If your base is more than 2cm different from a standard size in either dimension, a custom size mattress is the right choice. A gap of even a few centimetres between a standard mattress and the bed frame looks unsightly and allows the mattress to move around during the night.

Do you charge extra for a custom mattress size?
+

No. We do not charge a surcharge for custom sizing. The price of a custom size mattress is based on the foam specification and the area of the mattress β€” the same pricing as an equivalent standard size mattress. Whether you need a mattress that is 1cm off a standard size or a completely non-standard dimension, the price is the same.

Can you make custom size mattresses for European bed frames?
+

Yes. European bed frames use different standard dimensions from UK beds β€” a European double is 140 x 200cm, a European king is 160 x 200cm. Both are non-standard in the UK and require a custom size mattress. We make mattresses to all European standard sizes and to any other dimension you require.

What is the difference between a custom size mattress and a made to measure mattress?
+

In practice, the two terms describe the same thing β€” a mattress cut to your specific dimensions rather than a standard size. Custom size mattress and made to measure mattress are interchangeable. Both are cut to your exact length and width at no extra charge over a standard size mattress.

How long does a custom size mattress take to arrive?
+

Every custom size mattress is made to order in our Birmingham workshop. Foam mattresses take 7–10 working days, memory foam 10–14 working days, pocket sprung 14–21 working days. Delivery is free to most UK mainland addresses. Your mattress arrives vacuum-packed and reaches full size within a few hours of being unrolled.
