Low-Profile Twin Beds
Jump To Our PicksAs its name suggests, a low-profile bed sits close to the floor. Because it's so low to the ground, it tends to make the room seem more spacious. The design is especially good for rooms with limited space or low ceilings. Low-profile beds better suit contemporary and modern decor for design purposes, while taller beds complement a traditional aesthetic. Twin-sized low-profile beds are great for kids as it lets them climb into and out of bed without taking a tumble.

Black Metal Low Profile Twin Bed
Gracie Oaks
This low-profile twin bed features a classic metal headboard and frame. It also offers 10 strong, durable steel slat supports for your spring, memory foam, or hybrid mattress. The frame is 38” wide and the top of the headboard is 40” from the floor. You’ll need to assemble the frame which will weigh 36 lbs when finished.
Designer Advice:
While the metal slats make a box spring unnecessary, you can add one under the mattress if you choose. This will raise the height of top of the mattress and you won’t see as much of the headboard as if you place the mattress directly onto the slats. An easy way to disguise a box spring is to wrap it in a black twin fitted sheet.
