Low profile mattresses are thinner than standard mattresses, typically measuring between 6-10 inches thick. They're essential for beds with limited headroom, such as bunk beds, day beds, or beds with low overhead clearance. Standard mattresses often create problems in these spaces, making it difficult to sit up comfortably or causing the sleeper to feel cramped. Made-to-measure low profile mattresses solve this by providing the exact thickness needed whilst maintaining proper support and comfort. Custom sizing ensures a perfect fit for unusual bed dimensions, eliminating gaps and movement that can disrupt sleep quality.

Low Profile Mattress FAQs
Low profile mattresses typically range from 6 to 10 inches thick. The exact thickness depends on the space available and comfort requirements. Thinner options around 6-7 inches work well for occasional use, whilst 8-10 inch versions provide better support for regular sleeping. Custom thickness can be specified to fit precise clearance requirements.
Measure the bed frame's length, width, and any curves or cut-out corners. For thickness, measure the available headroom from the bed base to any overhead obstruction, then subtract 18-24 inches for comfortable sitting space. Note any unusual shapes or angles that require custom cutting for a perfect fit.
Memory foam and pocket springs both work well in low profile designs. Memory foam provides excellent pressure relief in thinner profiles, whilst pocket springs offer traditional support and breathability. The choice depends on personal preference for feel and sleeping temperature. All materials meet BS 7177 fire safety requirements.
Yes, properly designed low profile mattresses provide excellent support despite reduced thickness. High-density foams and quality spring systems maintain structural integrity and spinal alignment. The key is using appropriate materials and construction techniques specifically designed for thinner profiles rather than simply compressing standard mattress components.
Custom low profile mattresses typically take 7-14 working days to manufacture and deliver. Lead times vary depending on seasonal demand and current production capacity. Rush orders may be accommodated for urgent requirements. Free UK delivery is included, with the mattress arriving vacuum-packed for easy handling through narrow spaces.
Yes, guarantees up to 10 years are available depending on the materials and construction chosen. The guarantee covers manufacturing defects and premature wear under normal use.
