Platinum Ottoman/ Storage Bed Lift Up Hinge Mechanism with Gas Struts

Our Platinum Ottoman Hinge offer a Two Positions Lift-Up. The Mechanism will first move to a standard lift position (approximately 30 degrees), then can also move to a horizonal position if desired

The Horizonal Position makes this Bed Hinge different compared to our Premium Ottoman Hinge. There are two advantages of having the bed base in the horizonal position:

-     Ideal to storage and access belonging at the back of the bed frame

-     Ideal for changing bedding and reducing back strain

We stock a great range of Gas Struts that are each capable of delivering different forces; ideal for all bed sizes

They are ideal for both contract and residential Customers

These Ottoman hinges are Ideal for all bed sizes including all UK and European sizes. Depending on the size of the bed you have, you can decide whether you want to use one set of bed hinge mechanisms or two sets of bed hinge mechanisms

We recommend One bed hinge mechanism Set for beds up to 1400mm. Two Bed hinge mechanism Sets for beds over 1400mm; you can use one set; however, two sets give a more stable and gives you more options for gas struts.

The Ottoman Hinge are manufactured in Italy and the Gas Struts are manufactured in Germany. These are premium products; compared to other alternatives available in the UK market.

** Please Note: These hinges are not suitable for side opening beds that are smaller then a standard UK king (1500mm x 2000mm)

** Position 2 is only attainable via weight leverage.

Gas Struts Recommendation

The gas struts required will vary depending on
- Bed Size
- End Opening or Side Opening
- Lift Up Bed Base Construction (Slats or Sheet Material)
- Location of Hinge Mechanism
- Weigh of Mattress

It is extremely difficult to advise which strength gas strut you will
require for your bed.

When we refer Light and Heavy Below; we are referring to the Bed Base and Mattress. Manufacturing a bed base from sheet material would be classed as heavy and slats will be classed as light.

Its very much a case of trial and error, If you receive your order and you find that the gas struts are too strong or too weak, then you can send the struts back ( Keep actual ottoman mechanisms attach) and we can exchange them for you. You will need to pay for the delivery cost both ways.

IMPORTANT NOITICE

There are hundreds of ottoman bed manufacturer in the world, the attach holes on our Bed Hinge mechanism will not line up on the bed frame or bed base. You need to be prepared make new holes and make them work. It is never straight forward to replace these mechanisms unless you purchase them direct from the manufacturer of the bed frame.
