Fold Down Beds – Single

Transform any space into a functional spare bedroom with a fold down bed in a single size

Every Home Can Benefit from a Single Fold Down Bed

Whether your kids have friends for sleepovers on a regular basis or you simply want to create a multifunctional space, a single fold down bed could be the perfect solution for you. Enhancing a small room without overwhelming the space, SmartBed’s range of single fold down beds are highly functional and customised to your needs, with integrated desks or shelving, so you can maximise every inch of space.

A Single Fold Down Bed is Suitable for More Than Just a Studio Apartment

While we have installed wall beds for students and young professionals in studio apartments, a foldable single bed is ideal for accommodating multiple kids in a one bedroom, for families in spacious four-bedroom apartments who just want a little more floor space during the day or an additional sleeping space for when a grandparent comes to stay. Constructed from high quality materials, our wall beds are easy to manoeuvre and provide maximum comfort for a pleasant night’s sleep.

Space Saving Single Beds for Inner City Living

Given the reality of many families choosing inner city living for a convenient and low-maintenance lifestyle, a multi-functional single fold down bed allows any bedroom to double as a playroom or study space during the day, leaving the living room free for just that – living. Even when space is not an issue, wall beds are ideal for those who crave a neat and tidy home. A fold down single bed can even eliminate the need to nag your child about making their bed!

The Advantages of Single Murphy Bed

In today’s urban Australian landscape, where space is at a premium and versatility is key, the single Murphy bed has emerged as a game-changing solution for homeowners and property developers alike. But what makes these innovative space-savers so appealing? Let’s dive into the myriad advantages of incorporating a single wall bed into your living space. 

    1. Maximised Space Efficiency: The primary benefit of a single Murphy bed is its ability to free up valuable floor space. During the day, fold it away to create room for work, play, or relaxation. At night, easily lower it for a comfortable sleep. 
    2. Versatility in Design: Our single foldable beds are not just beds; they’re multifunctional pieces of furniture. When folded up, they can double as shelving units, desks, or stylish wall cabinets, seamlessly blending with your interior decor. 
    3. Perfect for Various Settings: From studio apartments and kids’ rooms to home offices and guest rooms, a single fold out bed adapts to numerous living situations. It’s also ideal for commercial applications like hotels, student accommodation, or serviced apartments. 
    4. Quality Sleep Experience: Unlike sofa beds or futons, our single fold down beds use standard Australian single mattresses, ensuring a comfortable night’s sleep comparable to traditional beds. 
    5. Easy Operation: Thanks to our gas-filled strut mechanism (made in Germany with a lifetime guarantee), lowering and raising the bed is effortless and safe, suitable for users of all ages. 
    6. Durability and Longevity: Crafted in Melbourne using high-quality Laminex 18mm commercial grade laminate, our single wall beds are built to last, withstanding frequent use over many years. 
    7. Customisation Options: We offer a range of finishes and complementary joinery options, allowing you to tailor your single Murphy bed to match your exact specifications and style preferences. 
    8. Ideal for Growing Families: A single foldable bed offers flexibility for changing family dynamics, from accommodating a new baby to creating a study space for a growing child. 
    9. Enhanced Property Value: The addition of a well-designed single wall bed can be a significant selling point, potentially increasing your property’s market value. 
    10. Eco-Friendly Living: By maximising the use of existing space, you’re promoting a more sustainable lifestyle, reducing the need for larger living spaces and the associated environmental impact. 

What is the Cost of Single Foldable Bed?

When considering a single foldable bed, it’s important to view it as an investment in your home and lifestyle. Here’s a breakdown of the cost factors and value proposition: 

  1. Initial Investment: While a single Murphy bed may have a higher upfront cost compared to traditional beds, it offers significantly more value in terms of space-saving and functionality. 
  2. Space Value: In urban areas where real estate prices are premium, the ability to reclaim valuable floor space can translate to substantial value.

  4. Quality and Durability: Our single fold out beds are built with high-quality materials and mechanisms, ensuring longevity and reducing the need for frequent replacements.

  7. Versatility Value: The ability to transform a room from a bedroom to a living space or home office adds significant functional value to your property. 
  8. Comparison to Alternatives: When compared to the cost of moving to a larger home or building an extension, a single fold down bed offers a cost-effective solution for creating additional living space. 
  9. Financing Options: To make your SmartBed more accessible, we offer various payment plans. Ask our team about current financing options available. 
  10. Return on Investment: Consider the long-term benefits – from improved living quality to potential increases in property value when evaluating the cost.
