Gas Lift Ottoman Beds
An ottoman bed is a storage bed with a lifting mattress platform that provides access to the compartment beneath. Our collection includes a reinforced metal-lid ottoman, a customisable end-lift design and a side-lift option for bedrooms where access from the foot of the bed is limited.
Each ottoman bed in this collection has been selected for strength, ease of use, and long-term practicality. With generous hidden storage, smooth lift mechanisms, and a choice of end-lift and side-lift designs, these beds are ideal for homes, guest rooms, rental properties, care settings, and contract environments where floor space matters.

Why Choose an Ottoman Bed?
An ottoman bed is one of the most practical ways to add storage to a bedroom. Instead of using drawers that need clearance at the sides, the mattress platform lifts to reveal a spacious storage area beneath the bed. This makes ottoman storage beds especially useful for smaller bedrooms, multi-use rooms, and spaces where wardrobes or extra furniture are limited.
Our ottoman beds are built with reinforced construction, supportive bases, and dependable lifting systems. Depending on the model, you can choose from hydraulic lift mechanisms, electric lift options, end-opening access, or side-opening access. This allows you to select the right ottoman bed for your room layout, mattress type, and daily storage needs.
Choose the Right Ottoman Bed for Your Room
For customers who want maximum strength and a robust storage platform, our heavy duty ottoman bed is the strongest option in the range. It features a reinforced metal ottoman lid, solid frame construction, generous storage capacity, and a choice of hydraulic or electric lift options. This is the best choice if durability, frequent use, and heavy-duty support are the main priorities.
If you prefer a made-to-order upholstered storage bed with access from the foot end, the end lift ottoman bed is a practical and customisable option. It is well suited to bedrooms where there is clear access at the foot of the bed, and it offers a choice of fabrics, colours, feet options, and optional headboard styles.
For rooms where foot-end access is restricted, the side lift ottoman bed provides easier access from the left or right side of the bed. This can be especially useful when the bed is positioned close to a wall, at the end of a room, or in a layout where opening from the foot of the bed would be less convenient.

End Lift vs Side Lift Ottoman Beds
The best ottoman bed for you will usually depend on how your bedroom is arranged. An end lift ottoman bed opens from the foot of the bed, making it a good choice where there is enough space at the bottom of the frame. A side lift ottoman bed opens from one side, making it better suited to rooms where access at the foot of the bed is limited.
If you need the most robust option, choose the heavy duty ottoman bed. If you want more fabric and finish choices, the made-to-order end lift and side lift ottoman beds offer greater design flexibility.
