What is a low divan bed base?
A low divan bed base is a sleek, short divan base designed with a reduced height, creating a modern, minimalist look. Unlike Ottoman lift storage beds or storage divans with drawers, non-storage divan bases keep things simple, offering a clean silhouette and excellent mattress support.
These are the perfect beds for loft conversions, contemporary bedrooms, transitional kids bedrooms, or rooms with lower ceilings. Divan Base Direct's low-profile divan bases create a stylish, streamlined feel, handmade in the UK for durability and comfort.
What sizes are low divan bases available in?
Our handmade divan bases are available in all standard UK sizes:
-
Low small single divan beds (76cm x 190cm): Compact and practical, ideal for children.
-
Low single divan beds (91cm x 190cm): Perfect for guest rooms, or smaller spaces.
-
Low small double divan beds (121cm x 190cm): The next step up from a single, offering more space to sleep, whilst keeping space use to a minimum.
-
Low double divan beds (135cm x 190cm): A versatile option for couples or adults looking for a sleek, space-saving design.
-
Low king-size divan beds (152cm x 198cm): Offering more room to stretch out, while keeping a streamlined, low-profile style.
-

Design your own low divan base at Divan Base Direct to suit your space.
