Extra short mattresses are custom-made for beds under 6 feet (1800mm) in length. Standard mattresses simply don't fit properly in compact spaces like children's beds, cabin beds, day beds, or small guest rooms. The excess length creates awkward overhangs or prevents proper fitting entirely. Made-to-measure extra short mattresses solve this by being cut to exact dimensions. Each mattress is handmade in Britain using quality materials and certified to BS 7177 fire safety standards. Available in various thicknesses and comfort levels, these bespoke mattresses ensure a perfect fit for any unusually short bed space.

Extra Short Mattress FAQs
Extra short mattresses are typically under 6 feet (1800mm) long. Common lengths include 1500mm, 1600mm, and 1700mm, though any measurement shorter than standard single length qualifies. Each mattress is cut to your exact requirements, so unusual dimensions like 1450mm or 1750mm are perfectly achievable. The key is providing accurate measurements for a proper fit.
Thickness depends on the bed base and user needs. Most extra short mattresses range from 100mm to 200mm thick. Platform beds or solid bases work well with thinner options around 100-125mm. Slatted bases benefit from thicker mattresses of 150-200mm for better support and comfort. Measure the space available above your base before ordering.
Extra short mattresses come in memory foam, pocket sprung, reflex foam, and hybrid combinations. Memory foam provides pressure relief and body contouring. Pocket springs offer traditional support with good airflow. Reflex foam delivers firm, supportive comfort at lower cost. All materials are BS 7177 certified and suitable for domestic use.
Lead times typically range from 7-14 working days depending on seasonal demand and current production capacity. Each mattress is handmade to order, so allow extra time during busy periods like back-to-school season. Free UK delivery is included. Delivery teams will contact you to arrange a convenient time slot.
Yes, guarantees up to 10 years are available depending on the materials chosen. Memory foam and pocket sprung options typically carry longer guarantees than basic reflex foam. The guarantee covers manufacturing defects and premature wear under normal use. Custom sizes don't affect guarantee terms - the same coverage applies as standard sizes.
Custom extra short mattresses are priced similarly to equivalent standard sizes. The bespoke cutting process doesn't significantly increase costs since each mattress is individually made anyway. Pricing depends mainly on materials, thickness, and comfort level rather than the unusual dimensions. Free delivery is included regardless of size.
Measure the internal bed frame dimensions where the mattress will sit. Take length, width, and note any height restrictions. Double-check measurements and account for any bed frame lips or raised edges. If replacing an existing mattress, measure that too for comparison. Providing accurate dimensions ensures a perfect fit first time.
