Our storage drawers are handmade and very strong. There is no point buying a high quality bed designed to last years with cheap drawers which the bottom will fall out of if overloaded.

Simply by using the hand control to raise the head end opens up a useful storage space. Many of our customers will opt for drawers in the foot end and place plastic storage boxes in the top end of the bed to take advantage of this. Please select your drawer option from the drop down menu.

Choosing the width of your adjustable bed or beds.
Unlike most retailers using imported components from the Far East, ‘Back Care Beds’ manufacture their adjustable beds and only import the mechanism and motors from Germany. As a result of metric equivalents check the Actual finished width of your selected bed from the list below
The length of an adjustable bed is generally 6’6” (198cm) long, even as a single bed where as conventional beds would only be 6’3” (190cm). We add approx. 2” (5cm) to avoid the mattress interfering with the face of the headboard. If you are particularly tall and need a longer bed we make up to a 7’ adjustable bed. If you are restricted on space we can make 6’3”
Twin adjustable beds of 2’3” can be used for a couple but be aware, these are quite narrow mattresses for each of you.

The comfort and support of an adjustable bed is partly down to the profiling of the bed base but mainly down to the support offered by the mattress. Pocket Spring mattresses do not perform as well as Reflex, Memory Foam or Latex mattresses.The Reflex foam is a good supportive mattress but for a little more money the Memory Foam mattresses give greater support and reduced pressure points which in-turn creates greater comfort.With £100 difference between the Memory 500 Mattress and our Deluxe Memory Foam Mattresses, it is our opinion that although slightly more expensive it is money well spent for the increased benefits.The ‘Latex Ultimate Mattress’ combines natural latex which avoids overheating with a high density memory foam middle layer producing incredible support without the feeling of being engulfed. As the name suggests, this is the ultimate mattress but not cheap

Twin Wheel, Braked Castors |
The option of castors is only available when selecting options for your adjustable bed. For an additional £20 per bed you can upgrade to our strong twin castors with brakes which makes it easy to move your adjustable bed. Simply flick the small brake lever up to unlock, reposition and push the brake down to lock it. Our castors have a load capacity of 50kg each in comparison to general quality castors having a rating of 30kg. A 10mm thread into a steel insert threaded into hardwood corner posts for strength. |
Wooden Feet |
Our adjustable beds come as standard with wooden feet with a felt pad to protect the floor. Adjustable beds are not particularly heavy and can be moved relatively easily however if you need to move the beds regularly and will find it difficult it may be a good idea to pay a little more to upgrade to have castors. |
Unlike an ordinary divan style bed, with no one on an adjustable bed in the raised position there is only point contact between the mattress and the slatted base. This means that the slightest pressure or nudge when getting into bed will cause the mattress to shift. Made from tough nylon they are strong enough to hold the mattress in position yet flexible enough not to cause injury if you sit on the mattress above the bars. The bars sit below the level of the top of the mattress. Sheets can easily be fitted around or on the inside of the bars.
The Bars are hooked onto a pair of slats and screwed into the slat through the pre drilled holes.

1 (set of 4) mattress side retainers £24

Our metal foot end mattress retainers are standard with our adjustable beds. When the head end of the adjustable bed is raised the mattress will naturally try to slide down the bed. Although they may not be the prettiest accessory the metal foot end mattress retainers are designed to hold the mattress in position. |
Although the metal foot end mattress retainers are very practical, the upholstered foot end mattress retainers have a nicer appearance and grip the mattress better. Upholstered in the colour and material to match your adjustable bed selection. Single Bed - Foot end mattress retainer £15 |
A standard cover is included with all of our range of adjustable bed mattresses. As these industry standard covers are not particularly thick it is recommended to use a thick elasticated mattress protector to create an air gap which will increase air circulation and reduce the likelihood of sweating.
![]() |
Luxury Zip off washable top cover • Awarded the prestigious highest level European Eco certificate. • The thick quilted cover creates an air gap for ventilation to reduce the likelihood of sweating. • Cover completely un-zips around the top edge making it considerably easier than standard covers. • Suitable for all of our adjustable bed mattresses. • Machine washable. Do not tumble dry. For this reason it is worth having a spare. • Spare covers are very handy for one on the bed and one in the wash. |
The price of the upgraded cover includes the side and bottom casing and is already reduced as a price difference deducting the cost of our standard cover.
The price below is for the one upgraded casing and cover and then for each additional spare cover.
For an individual 3’ Bed £ 50 to upgrade the casing and cover, then an additional £ 50 for a spare cover. Total £ 100
For Twin 3’ beds £ 100 to upgrade both casings and covers, then an additional £ 50 for a spare cover. Total £ 150

Many people suffer from sweating in bed. This is generally as a result of being prone to sweating rather than it being caused by the sleeping surface. The anti-perspiration pad or anti sweat mattress pad, call it what you want, it makes a difference because it creates an air gap which allows air circulation. Problem solved!
Anti-Perspiration pad, also known as anti-sweat pad. It works quite simply by creating an air gap between you and the mattress, reducing or preventing sweating. Although the principal is simple the technology is far from simple. 3mesh from Muller textiles in Germany is made from thousands of tiny fibres that literally create an air gap allowing air to circulate. We at High & Dry Manufacturing Ltd then convert the 3mesh spacer fabric into a mattress protector with an elasticated skirt to hook over your mattress and a quilted face with poly cotton lining. It really works.
Ordinary cotton or poly cotton sheets have no stretch so they will become baggy when the head and foot ends of the adjustable bed are raised. Sheets with no stretch will come un-tucked and wrapped around you by the morning. From our experience most
customers are skeptical and are surprised by the price, deciding to buy just one to try it out. Shortly after they will purchase more and say what good value the sheets are. For a short while we did stop selling the sheets due to the rising price to us but so many of our
existing customers moaned that there simply was no suitable alternative so we decided to continue supplying them.

This fantastic massage system is far from being a gimmick. Powerful built in motors can give a gentle soothing massage or simply increase the intensity for an invigorating massage, passively exercising you whilst circulating blood to the joints and muscles.
Relax in the knowledge that the timer will automatically switch off after a set time.

Note.
The built in massage system cannot be used in combination with our pocket spring mattress. The alternative massage system which can be used is bolted under the adjustable bed slats. This system is widely sold in high street shops because it is easier to sell as an add on however it is far less effective and is noisy in comparison to the built in massage system.
For only £100 - a relatively small cost, we can upgrade our standard five part mechanism which is rated for users of up to 18 stone (115kg) to take 25st (160kg) Included in the price is the upgrade to a heavy duty motor
The functionality of the ‘Heavy Duty Mechanism’ is exactly the same as with our standard adjustable bed mechanism.
Thicker slats and plastic mounts are used. The slats are longer to sit on the mechanism frame instead of being suspended between the framework.
Heavy Duty Twin motors
£50 to most parts of main land England. Additional charges apply to certain areas of the U.K please either view our guide or please contact us to discuss location and charges.
Due to the bulky nature of the adjustable beds we send them flat packed on a pallet to reduce the risk of damage and missing parts. The delivery company are contracted to bring the components into your property but no further than your door.
We have gone to great lengths to make the beds easy to self-assemble and installation guides can be found under our ‘Advice’ dropdown menu.
Delivery Times
We aim to deliver within two weeks of order however this may change depending on busy or holiday periods, stock or delivery location. Should you require a particularly quick delivery time we can normally accommodate depending on your requirements.
