PRODUCTS

Why choose Solid Oak?

Oak is characterised by its strength, flexibility and durability. With a naturally warm character and reassuringly traditional look that still feels contemporary, oak is a timeless wood that doesn't go out of style. Colour tones range from grey-yellows to light and dark browns, and lend a light, natural ambiance to an interior design scheme.

Why (and where) do you use Oak Veneers?

Being a natural hardwood, Oak can vary in tone greatly from one piece to the next. It is also very wasteful and inefficient to use single sections of Oak in the production of longer spans such as a siderail. Oak veneer is used on these sections over the solid oak foundation to ensure an even tonal match across the whole frame.

What exactly is Oak Veneer?

Our Oak Veneers are made from only the most valuable oak, with millimetre thin slices being cut from oak with the most beautiful grain. Veneers have an elegant, modernist look that is lighter and more flexible than solid wood. Since veneer takes its pattern from the wood it is cut from, you get a natural, warm and unique look.

How are your prices so low?

As we are the designers and manufacturers of our solid oak and hardwood beds, there are no third party/wholesale costs being passed on to our customers. This enables us to offer such competitive prices.

Our efficient use of Oak (please see above) helps to keep our prices as competitive as possible.

What type of slats, and how many, come with each bed?

All of our beds are supplied complete with independent Posture Sprung Wooden Slats which offer the best support for you and your mattress.

Each slat is 50mm in depth, and the gap between each slat is also 50mm, which is ideal for all mattress types

What are Posture Sprung Wooden Slats?

Posture Sprung Wooden Slats have an advantage over traditional solid slat and mesh bases as they provide a more comfortable, mattress friendly sleeping area due to their upward-curve design.
When an individual lies on the bed, the slats act like a spring and flatten, returning to normal when the individual gets back off the bed.

In our 4ft size beds and above, there are 2 rows of Slats to allow independent support of each person using the bed.

Our Sprung Slats are manufactured from plywood, with a beech veneer for a high quality finish.

Posture Sprung Slats create a more comfortable sleeping surface for you, and help extend the lifetime of your mattress by alleviating part of the pressure undertaken by the springs, adjusting to your profile where the most pressure is exerted.
