The Largest of the Standard Sizes
A king is as big as a standard bed gets — a full 30 cm wider than a queen, which is the difference between sharing a bed and having your own side of it. It's built for couples who don't want to compromise on space, for taller sleepers who need the full length, and for households where a child or a dog occasionally joins for the night. Given the room, it's the most comfortable bed you can buy off the shelf.
King Bed Size in Australia
A king fits a mattress measuring 183 cm wide × 203 cm long — a full 30 cm wider than a queen, with the same generous length. Here's how it sits at the top end of the range.
| Size | Mattress dimensions | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Double | 138 × 188 cm | Solo sleepers, compact rooms |
| Queen | 153 × 203 cm | Couples, standard main bedrooms |
| King | 183 × 203 cm | Couples wanting maximum space |
A king is two single mattresses wide, so it needs the room to match. As a rule of thumb, allow a bedroom of around 3.5 × 3.5 m or larger so there's space for bedside tables and easy movement around the bed. For every size compared, see our Australian bed sizes guide.
Make It the Statement
A king bed dominates the room by sheer size, so it's worth choosing a finish that earns the attention. This is the size where a grand headboard really lands.
Upholstered & Velvet
A wide, padded or velvet headboard is the ultimate statement — soft to lean on and unmistakably the centrepiece of the room. Browse upholstered and velvet frames.
Fabric & PU Leather
Fabric keeps the look soft and calm; PU leather adds a sleek, wipe-clean edge that suits a more modern master bedroom. Compare fabric and PU leather.
The Most Hidden Storage of Any Size
A king sits over the largest floor area of any standard bed, which makes its base the single biggest storage opportunity in the bedroom. A king bed with drawers or a gas-lift base turns that whole footprint into usable space — room for spare doonas, pillows, luggage and seasonal clothes that would otherwise need a cupboard of their own. Gas-lift versions raise the entire base on pistons for full access; drawer versions keep everyday items to hand. To match the room, a king bedroom suite brings the bed, bedsides and storage together.
King or Queen?
The deciding factor is the room. A king needs real space around it; in a standard or smaller bedroom it can leave no room for bedsides or a clear path to the door. If that sounds like your room, a queen gives two people generous comfort on a smaller footprint. Choose a king when the bedroom is large enough to carry it and you want the most personal space a standard size offers.
King Bed Frames to Suit Every Budget
A king is a considered purchase, so value matters. Because we import direct and hold stock locally, we keep our king bed frames fair on price without cutting the build quality that has to support a large mattress and two sleepers night after night — and you can spread the cost with Afterpay, Zip, Humm or Latitude. If value is the priority, our affordable bed frames gather the best picks together.
Complete the Room
Pair the frame with a matched king mattress so the dimensions line up, then flank it with a pair of bedside tables, add a tallboy or dresser, and finish with pillows and a mattress protector.
Browse by Style
After a particular look? The breezy ease of Hamptons and coastal furniture suits light, airy master bedrooms; Scandinavian pieces lean on clean lines and pale timber; and rustic furniture brings warmth through solid timber.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size is a king bed in Australia?
A king fits a mattress measuring 183 cm wide × 203 cm long — a full 30 cm wider than a queen (153 × 203 cm), with the same length. Always check the product page for exact frame specifications.
Will a king bed fit my room?
A king needs space around it. As a guide, allow a bedroom of around 3.5 × 3.5 m or larger so there's room for bedside tables and a clear path around the bed — at least 60 cm of clearance on each accessible side. In a smaller room, a queen is usually the more comfortable fit.
King or queen — which should I choose?
Choose a king when the bedroom is large enough to carry it and you want the most personal space a standard size offers — ideal for couples, taller sleepers or households where kids and pets join occasionally. Choose a queen for a standard-sized room where a king would leave no space around it.
Can I get a king bed frame with storage?
Yes, and the king size offers the most under-bed storage of any standard bed. Drawer and gas-lift bases are both available — see our king beds with storage to compare.
Are king bed frames easy to assemble?
Yes. Frames arrive flat-packed with clear instructions and go together with a few basic tools. We'd recommend two people for a king, as the headboard and base are large and heavier to handle.
Can I pick up a king bed frame the same day?
In most cases, yes. Our showrooms hold stock locally, so if the frame you want is available you can collect it the same day. Given the size, free local delivery and paid wider delivery are also worth considering.
Do king bed frames come with a warranty?
Every frame comes with a minimum 12-month warranty unless otherwise noted on the product page. Full terms are on our warranty and returns page.
