TBSW Slatted Bed Board™ - Antique Beds
Bed Board™ for Antique Metal Bed Frames
The Bed Board™ Antique is a custom-designed mattress support solution, created specifically for antique and vintage metal bed frames. Whether you are restoring an existing bed, building a new one, or replacing worn-out springs, this platform offers a strong, ventilated, and long-lasting alternative to pine bed slats or expandable bases.
Premium Alternative to Traditional Supports
Crafted from high-quality birch plywood, each Bed Board™ Antique features CNC-precision slatted grooves positioned for maximum load-bearing strength and optimal airflow. Its low-profile design makes it ideal for various metal bed structures without adding excess height.
Customised for Your Antique Frame
We can adapt the Bed Board™ Antique to work seamlessly with almost any metal bed construction, including:
• Wire mesh frames
• Side rails with protruding nipples
• Traditional bed springs
• Frames with no central rail
• Frames with cross rails
• Angle iron with a flat top surface
• Angle iron with a lip for the board to sit in
Ease of Installation
• 4-section design for easier access into tight spaces
• Inverted radius cut-outs at all four corners to avoid interference from bolts or knuckle joints
Optional Upgrades
• Reinforced in-built cross rails for added stability
• Adjustable self-locking mechanism to prevent movement on side rails
Key Benefits
• Tailor-made to suit your unique antique bed frame
• Improves stability and support compared to old springs or slats
• Ventilated design promotes mattress freshness
• CNC-cut for precision and consistency
• Made to order in our UK workshop
