This is to make room for a bigger desk or wardrobe. At this time, however, it is also good to consider the <strong>size of the bed<\/strong>. A <strong>queen-size bed might be the best solution<\/strong> because as children grow, it becomes much more comfortable than the classic single bed. But <strong>what are the measurements of a single bed<\/strong>? Let&#8217;s look at it together.   <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Standard size single beds<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"851\" height=\"530\" src=\"https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag90-91.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89822\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag90-91.jpg 851w, https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag90-91-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag90-91-768x478.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 851px) 100vw, 851px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The size of the 120 cm bed is usually defined by the size of the mattress<\/strong>. <strong>Single beds<\/strong> normally have the following dimensions: <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>120 x 190\/195\/200 cm<\/strong> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>More rarely they have a width of 110 cm<\/strong>, but usually in Italy the standard for a single bed is 120 cm. These are of course the measurements of the bed base and mattress, <strong>the bed frame will be slightly larger <\/strong> depending on the model chosen.  <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A simple bed frame will have a width of 128\/129 cm, while if you move on to more elaborate beds you can reach a width of 147 cm<\/strong>. It is therefore a good idea to <strong>carefully evaluate the space available<\/strong> before buying a single bed to avoid the risk of finding yourself too cluttered. Another measurement to assess is the <strong>height of the mattress<\/strong>. We do not recommend <strong>buying mattresses with a height of less than 16 cm<\/strong>, then depending on the technology chosen, you can have mattresses with a height of 21 cm, up to a maximum of 28 cm.    <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If you are curious about the dimensions of our beds, you can download the pdf with all dimensions by clicking on the button below<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Single bed dimensions<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Obviously the single bed needs dedicated <strong>bed linen<\/strong>. <strong>The dimensions of the top sheet of a single bed are 180\u00d7200 cm<\/strong>, <strong>the dimensions of the mattress cover are<\/strong> <strong>120\u00d7200 cm<\/strong>, and those of the <strong>duvet cover<\/strong> are <strong>200\u00d7200 cm<\/strong>. It may therefore be that, depending on the bedding chosen, <strong>the sheets of the single bed may also fit, while the sheet underneath must obviously be purchased specifically considering the height of the mattress<\/strong>. As the 120\u00d7190 single bed is very popular, it is not at all difficult to find suitable bed linen.  <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When to choose a single bed<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"529\" src=\"https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1091.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1091.jpg 850w, https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1091-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1091-768x478.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we have seen above, the queen-size bed <strong>is particularly suitable for boys because it is definitely more comfortable than a normal single bed<\/strong>. It is also popular with those <strong>who tend to move around a lot at night<\/strong>, because it is <strong>more comfortable and allows for a larger area of movement<\/strong>. Sometimes it <strong>is also chosen by those who live alone and have very little space<\/strong>, for example in a studio apartment.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s certainly<strong> a compromise, because if space allows, it\u2019s better to go for a 140 cm bed<\/strong>, or a French-style bed, which can accommodate two people if necessary. <strong>If you\u2019d like to find out more, we\u2019ve written an article on French-style beds. A 120 cm bed, on the other hand, is recommended for just one person \u2013 sleeping two in it is really tricky!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Made-to-measure single beds<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes it may be necessary to make a <strong>120 cm bed to size<\/strong>. In the case of a <strong>particularly tall person, for example, the standard length of 200 cm may not be sufficient and the bed frame therefore needs to be adapted for a 210 or 220 cm mattress<\/strong>. Similarly, <strong>space requirements may lead us to desire a 110 cm or 100 cm bed<\/strong>. Scandola Mobili, thanks to in-house production, can customise its beds to suit all customer requirements, thus making them smaller or larger. The queen-size bed will therefore no longer have the standard dimensions.    <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"529\" src=\"https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1092.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89831\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1092.jpg 850w, https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1092-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/scandolamobili.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAESTRALE-pag108-1092-768x478.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prices of the single bed<\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The price of a single bed naturally varies depending on many factors, such as the material chosen, production, durability, lacquering and much more<\/strong>.
