Wall beds designed for your room
What prompts wall beds in Harrow Weald
Sofa beds are not always comfortable for regular use. With a wall bed, guests sleep on a real mattress, on a proper frame.
People normally get in touch with us about needs like these:
- A flexible room for a growing family
- A bed that fills a little-used room
- A home office that also sleeps guests
- A bed that looks like cupboards by day
For a flat near Headstone Lane station, the lift, the stair turns and the front door all set the largest piece that can come in.
Choosing a carpenter
- Can you see real work of theirs?
- Whether the quote says what the furniture is made from
- Whether you’ll get a quote in writing, not just a figure
- Have they measured the stairs, lift and doorways?
Wall beds in Harrow Weald
Not every mattress suits every wall bed, because the mechanism maker sets limits on size, depth and weight. We’ll talk through what suits the bed at the measuring visit, so you can choose a mattress that works. If you are living with a proper bed instead of a sofa bed and a study that doubles as a spare room, wall beds made from MDF made to resist moisture and birch plywood, then spray-painted or hand-painted can solve it.
Many 1930s houses have had a loft conversion, adding a bedroom under a sloping ceiling, and that slope can be used for storage built to the angle. A big part of the housing around Harrow Weald is interwar, semi-detached or detached. Our part starts once the loft has been converted, with each piece scribed to the slope and set level.
The furniture is built in our workshop after you’ve had the quote and decided to go ahead. The quote sets out the agreed design, materials and finish, so you can check every detail beforehand.

Entries on the National Heritage List near the centre of Harrow Weald include Harrow Weald House Farm (Grade II*), under half a mile north-east, and Church of St Joseph (catholic) (Grade II), under half a mile south.

Common questions about wall beds
Can parking be tricky on fitting day in Harrow Weald?
It depends on the street, as many London boroughs run controlled parking zones. A van may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a parking bay suspension, which the council arranges, often with notice. It helps to let us know about parking during the design visit, so the day can be planned around it.
Do you cover homes near Headstone Lane station?
Yes, homes across Harrow and the rest of London are within the area we cover. You can get in touch through our contact form to arrange a design visit.
Can the fitting be on a Saturday?
Yes, by arrangement. Let us know when you get in touch if a Saturday suits you best.
What happens when you come to measure?
We measure the space and discuss the design, materials and finish. We look at the walls, floors and anything the furniture has to work around, and the written quote comes afterwards.
What if the wall is cold or damp?
It can be done with some care: leaving ventilation behind and inside helps stop condensation. Damp treatment is not something we do, so any damp needs sorting first.
Is it possible to add a desk beside the wall bed?
Yes. Shelves, cupboards or a desk can go around the bed cabinet, so the whole wall is useful. The design keeps clear space in front for the bed to fold down.
Pricing wall beds in Harrow Weald
Every room is different, so every job is quoted on its own. These are the things that affect it:
- How square the room is
- Whether you choose a spray or hand-painted finish
- How easy it is to get the furniture into the room
- The overall size of the piece
Parking is part of the price picture in London. The boroughs run controlled parking zones across much of the city, so we may need a visitor permit, a paid bay or a suspended bay. Tell us about parking at the design visit.
Before the design visit
To help us picture the room, please include:
- What you’d like to store or use the space for
- Pictures of styles you like, if you have any
- Approximate measurements of the space
- Photos of the whole wall or room, including the floor and ceiling
Every piece is quoted for your room after the design visit. Each room is different, so we quote after seeing it, once the room is measured and the design talked through. To arrange a visit, fill in our short enquiry form.
Flats, leases and landlords
For a rented home, access for the design visit and fitting day has to be agreed with the tenants, at times that suit them. An agent can arrange access for you.
Blocks of flats often have their own rules on lift bookings, entry systems and times for trades. Tell us about them during the design visit, so fitting day is planned around them.
How fitting works for wall beds
When we arrive on fitting day, the first job is covering the floors and protecting the way in from the front door. Next, we carry in the sections made in our workshop, a piece at a time. How long fitting takes depends on the size of the bed and the cabinets around it, and we confirm the fitting days in your quote. Some interwar and suburban streets have driveways, which can make unloading easier, so let us know at the measuring visit. Otherwise, a visitor permit or a nearby bay helps. Floors and doorways are protected while the pieces come in.
- To begin, tell us about the room on our contact form; a brief note on the room and how often guests stay is plenty.
- At the design visit we check what the wall is made of, as a wall bed has to be fixed securely as its maker specifies.
- You receive a written quote for the wall bed and any storage.
- The bed housing and any shelves or desk are built in our workshop from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood.
- We fit the cabinet in your home and fix the mechanism as its maker specifies.
- We go through the bed with you; the cabinet has the spray-painted or hand-painted finish you chose.
How to prepare
- Clear the walls of pictures and shelves
- Empty the space we will be working in
- Clear the hallway and stairs so the sections can come through
Getting a quote
The quote is built from the design visit. We take full measurements, see how true the walls and floors are and work through the design together. A written quote follows the visit, so you can take your time with it. To arrange the visit, fill in our short enquiry form.
