Can You Use Any Bed Frame with An Adjustable Base?

Adjustable bases are a great addition to your bed and mattress and add extra stability and comfort. You may be considering purchasing an adjustable bed when you are purchasing a new mattress or new bedroom furniture. To ensure you get the most out of your purchase, it is essential to check that your adjustable base will fit with your new or current furniture and mattress. After all, your mattress and bedroom furniture will be a part of your life for at least ten years! It is of the utmost importance that you choose correctly from day one!

Why Choose an Adjustable Bed Base?

Adjustable beds have numerous health benefits and perks, making them appealing to a wide variety of people. Adjustable Bases can maneuver your mattress into different positions, making it more comfortable and easier to sleep. Most adjustable bases can raise and lower the head and foot of the bed, while others also offer pillow tilts and zero gravity features. 

Adjustable bases can reduce snoring, ease muscle and neck tension, reduce pain from arthritis, and help alleviate certain sinus issues/acid reflux/other ailments that may typically prevent a restful night’s sleep. No matter your age or health level, an adjustable base is one of the most beneficial choices you can make for your sleep life. In addition to health benefits, adjustable foundations offer many fun features, too! Adjustable bases often include under-bed lighting, USB charging ports, programmable memory positions, safety locks, and phone app controls. Adjustable bases are great for those who like to read or even work remotely from bed! 

What Bed Frames are Compatible with An Adjustable Base? 

Most frames that accommodate a mattress and box spring will fit an adjustable base. You can use a Kloter Farms Adjustable Base with any Kloter Farms bed frame and, in most cases, bed frames that aren’t from Kloter Farms. It is not necessary to purchase a specific adjustable bed frame.

To accurately determine if your bed frame is adjustable base compatible, you’ll need to understand what kind of frame you currently have. You’ll likely be adjustable base compatible if you have a standard bed frame with a headboard, footboard, and rails. A bedframe like this will have wooden or metal slats that run horizontally to support the mattress. As long as you can remove those slats, the adjustable base should fit inside of the frame. Do not overcomplicate it when determining how to put an adjustable base into your bedframe. Simply remove the wooden or metal slats, then place the adjustable base inside the remaining piece. 

A platform bed frame, or bed frame with under-bed storage, may not be compatible. Unlike the standard bed frame, a structure with under-bed storage or a platform frame does not come apart as easily and would not be able to fit the adjustable base without causing damage. Using an adjustable base on a platform bed is typically not recommended for a standard flexible base. A standard bed frame is better suited to allow the adjustable base to have enough clearance to move up and down with ease, and without damage.

Kloter Farms Adjustable Bed Bases

Kloter Farms carries three styles of adjustable bases – the Style, Ultra, and Discovery adjustable bases. Of these three, the Discovery Adjustable Base is the only one that will be slim enough to work on a platform or storage bedrail system! This is great news if you currently have a platform bed. The Style Adjustable Base and the Ultra Adjustable Base are best paired with a standard bedframe. 

The Discovery Adjustable Base is available in 5 sizes – twin XL, full, queen, king, and split king. It features a wireless remote with a flashlight, a “go-to flat” button, anti-gravity position, 3-in-1 adjustable height legs, and adjustable head and foot positions. With an upholstered wood deck, the Discovery Adjustable Base can fold up, making it easy to fit in small and large rooms!

The Style Motion Base Adjustable Bed and Ultra Motion Base Adjustable Bed both feature moveable head and foot positions, 6”-10” adjustable legs, massage features, and programmable memory positions. But that’s not all! Both also include under-bed lighting, zero-gravity buttons, and snore features! The Ultra goes beyond the Style Base, offering USB ports, app controls for Apple and Android users, and pillow tilt positions. 

No matter which Kloter Farms Adjustable Base product you choose, it will be compatible with a Kloter Farms bed frame and mattress.  

Do I Need a Special Mattress for an Adjustable Bed Base?

At Kloter Farms, we can assure you that our base and mattress will work on your current bed. However, if you have a mattress not purchased from Kloter Farms, it may not work with an adjustable base. If your current mattress is 8-10 years old, you may want to consider purchasing a new mattress with an adjustable base to ensure the longevity of both products.  

If you have a newer mattress/mattress that is in pristine condition, it would likely be well-suited for an adjustable base. For Kloter Farms’ line of adjustable bases, we recommend five in the Kloter Farms Premium Mattress Series: the Conforma, Integrity, Tranquility, Resilience, or Ultra Gel Mattresses. These five mattresses are handmade, one at a time, and come with a twenty-year warranty. Each offers a different comfort level along with equal support. Ranging from latex foam, encased pocketed coils, and flip-able high-density foam, to gel-infused cool touch memory foam, you are sure to find a mattress that is compatible with an adjustable base and best suited to your needs. Plus, our new line of 100% organic mattresses are adjustable base friendly, too.
