5ft Double Headboards

No — a 5ft headboard (150cm wide) is sized for a king size bed, not a standard double. A standard double bed is 4ft6 (135cm wide). If you have a standard double, you need a 4ft6 headboard. Always match the headboard width to your bed frame width.

Yes — all headboard styles including wingback, panelled, sleigh, low, and floor standing options are available in 5ft sizing. The full range of fabrics and colourways is also offered.

Yes — a headboard is a great way to anchor a free-standing bed. A floor standing headboard is particularly effective in this scenario as it does not require wall support. A standard strut-mounted headboard can also be used with the bed away from the wall, as the struts attach to the bed frame, not the wall.

Larger headboards are delivered as a single panel and are manageable by two people. Very large or heavily padded wingback styles can be bulky — our two-man delivery service can bring these to your room of choice if preferred. The headboard weight is listed in the product specifications.

Most divan bases have headboard strut brackets built in or supplied separately. Slatted bed frames vary — check your assembly instructions or the product listing for your bed frame. If you're unsure, contact us with your bed frame model and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.
