Veneto Bed Frames

Pay attention to bed frames when choosing a sleep device. This is the most important part of the bed, and your morning energy will depend on it. Why not the mattress? It is easy to understand using the example of the spine and muscles. Muscles are the frame, the spine is the mattress. If the muscles are weak, even a strong spine will start to deform under load; on the other hand, well-trained muscles slow down or stop spinal deformation. By choosing bed frames, you are choosing the “strength and elasticity of the muscles” that will support the orthopedic mattress and help it function properly. Below we explain how to choose the right product and why solid metal bases lose out today.

What Types of Bed Bases Exist

Not long ago, the most common options were chipboard or MDF sheets built into the bed box, but today it is clear that this solution is ineffective and non-functional. With such a construction, the mattress wears out faster and loses its preventive and therapeutic properties.
Spring bases have also failed the durability test. These constructions stretched quickly, lost their shape, and led to frequent replacement of the sleeping device.
Innovative technologies and research made it possible to design slatted bed frames. They became a breakthrough both in furniture manufacturing and in orthopedics. This solution made an individual approach possible and reduced the weight of sleeping products. Still wondering which bed bases are best for an orthopedic mattress? The precise answer: slatted bases.

Types of Slatted Constructions

A slatted frame is the bed base made of flexible, curved wooden slats, produced from different types of wood and attached with special holders to wooden or metal side rails (2 or 4), with specific spacing. To buy a bed frame means to give yourself healthy sleep and your bed careful structural support.

By side-rail material, products are divided into:

• Wooden;
• Metal.
  

The difference between wooden and metal versions lies in their properties and durability. The first is an eco-friendly and strong product. However, metal rails or a metal “rim” are superior in strength. Veneto manufactures bases with a metal “rim” and metal rails. Combined with beech wood, the bed box becomes strong, durable, and functional. Our metal constructions are coated with powder polyester paint to keep them eco-friendly and protect the metal from external factors. For slatted frames, the price with a metal rim is more attractive than for fully wooden options.

By slat material, there are:

• Frames with wooden slats;
• Frames with metal slats;
• Frames with plastic slats.
  

It is easy to guess that plastic has a financial advantage — it is cheaper. However, such products lack the properties of wooden ones. They wear out quickly, do not withstand weight well, and are often toxic. One of the advantages of plastic products is flexibility and moisture resistance, but they can hardly be called durable.
Fully metal bases are known for their durability. Their slats are rigid, non-flexible, and non-springy. Essentially, you get almost the same solid surface under the mattress, just with better ventilation.
Wooden constructions can also vary in quality depending on the material: ash, beech, pine, birch, etc. The best bases are considered to be those with beech slats. Such products are known for their orthopedic properties, eco-friendliness, elasticity, and durability. Veneto offers its clients metal bed frames with beech slats.

Wooden constructions can be:

• Non-flexible;
• Flexible.
  

If you choose the first option, you get an eco-friendly product with a high level of firmness but without spring properties. In other words, your sleeping device will be well supported and ventilated, but with a single (firm) level of rigidity. Flexible bases, in turn, are divided into adjustable and non-adjustable. The latter have a medium, fixed elasticity, while a base with adjustable slats allows you to adapt it to your needs at a particular stage of life, providing a higher level of comfort during rest.
If you choose the ideal construction, it would be a metal base with flexible, adjustable beech slats.

How Orthopedic Bed Bases Differ from Standard Models

What is a standard model? It is a single bed base with wooden slats 68 mm wide and 7 cm spacing between them. This standard is designed for weight up to 100 kg and has limitations regarding mattress types.
Veneto orthopedic bed frames have reinforced constructions that significantly increase the allowed weight per sleeping place and allow you to buy according to individual needs. Reinforced constructions with additional slats and double-row layouts make these products individual, orthopedic, and durable. Our extra slats have firmness regulators and high-quality holders, which expands the base’s functionality.

In Veneto stores, bed bases can be ordered in different sizes, modifications, and constructions.

Orthopedic Bases — Benefits for the Back

Your back will say “thank you” after the very first night. By providing full muscle relaxation, slatted constructions also promote nervous system recovery. Elastic curved slats create comfort for the sleeping area and give you an energized morning every day.
Slatted bed frames:

1. Allow even distribution of body weight;
2. Support the spine in a correct anatomical position;
3. Help relax muscles as much as possible;
4. Reduce body load during sleep, which is beneficial for joints and blood vessels.

The benefits for your back are not the only advantage of slats. They also allow air circulation, which keeps the mattress hygienic and extends its service life.

How to Choose the Right Bed Base

For slatted bed frames to work together with an orthopedic mattress for the benefit of your sleep and health, you should consider how well they “partner” with each other. The correctness of the choice depends on the spacing between slats, the type of mattress, and the desired load on the sleeping place.

• Spacing 52–65 mm. Recommended maximum load up to 80 kg (including the mattress). Suitable for spring mattresses where spring diameter is greater than the distance between slats.
• Spacing 30–45 mm. Maximum load up to 100 kg. Can be used with any mattress type.
• Spacing up to 30 mm. Possible load up to 130 kg per sleeping place. Compatible with all mattress types.

Veneto frames have a double arrangement of slats, which significantly increases the possible load.

How to Choose Reliable Bed Frames

A reliable construction is one made of high-quality, eco-friendly materials and assembled with strong fittings. Want your sleep device to last for decades? Pay attention to:

1. Certification of materials;
2. Absence of roughness, dents, and chips on wooden parts and on the metal finish;
3. Functionality is on trend, so adding lifting mechanisms is an excellent solution;
4. The use of glue is a bad sign for frame strength;
5. Metal versions with beech slats are the best choice;
6. The presence of double slats and firmness regulators is a sign of care for the product and proper mattress performance, which means care for you.

Veneto offers its customers high-quality bed frames with beech slats for maximum comfort during healthy rest.
