The instructions are intuitive and clear to guide you along the way. When you order a king-size Purple Foundation or Platform Bed Frame, you don’t even need any tools. Simply unfold it and snap in the legs, and your new bed frame is ready for your king mattress.

The Purple Premium Smart Base is a high-tech adjustable bed frame. It requires a few extra steps to assemble, but the process is simple.

Our bed frames also include hardware for attaching a headboard. To learn more about our king size bed frames, be sure to read our bed frame comparison guide.

The dimensions of a king-size bed frame are 76 inches wide and 80 inches long. A king frame should always match the dimensions of a king mattress. King size bed frames from Purple have the following dimensions:
 

• King Size Platform Bed: 76” x 80” x 14”
• King Size Foundation: 76" x 80" x 17"
• King Size Purple Premium Smart Base: 80” x 76” x 14.5”

These king-size bed dimensions are specific to a standard king – if you’re talking about a California king bed, the dimensions are different. A California king size mattress measures 72 x 84 inches, so it’s longer and narrower than the standard king mattress. If you already own a California king size mattress, be sure the bed frame is the right size. The Platform Bed Frame and the Purple Foundation bed frame are available in California king sizes.

King-size bed frames are designed specifically to match king size bed dimensions. If you own a king mattress, it’s important to have a bed frame that fits perfectly.

Many people prefer to put their mattress on a bed frame instead of a box spring. With a strong, sturdy bed frame, you don’t have to worry about noisy or worn out springs. With a king size bed frame from Purple, you can rest easy knowing your king mattress is well supported.

A king size bed frame supports a king mattress that measures 76” x 80”. Before ordering a king size mattress and bed frame, it’s important to make sure it’s the right size for your needs. Smaller mattresses can get crowded fast when kids and pets climb into bed, and it’s hard to get a good night’s sleep if your bed is too cramped.

Consider your bedroom space – can it fit king size bed dimensions? A good rule of thumb is that your bedroom space should be at least 12 square feet to comfortably fit a king size bed frame. In general, it’s best to get the biggest mattress and bed frame that your bedroom space will allow so that you can maximize your sleeping space. That way, everyone gets a good night’s sleep.

Still have questions? Ask a Sleep Expert:

No. Twin mattresses are too short to fit a king size bed frame, but twin XL mattresses fit perfectly. A standard king size mattress measures 80 inches long, while a standard twin bed is only 75 inches long. But twin XL mattresses are 80 inches in length, just like a king. When you put two twin XL mattresses together, they match the dimensions of a king size bed exactly.

Many couples prefer using two twin XL mattresses in their king size bed frame because it allows for customized sleeping preferences. One person may like a firmer mattress, while the other prefers a softer mattress. A split king allows both sleepers to get a great night’s sleep.

Once you’ve placed two twin XL mattresses onto your king size bed frame, you can then use all your king size bedding and they’ll fit just fine. You can even use two twin XL mattresses with the Purple Premium Smart Base by choosing the Split King size during checkout.
