Overview

Gas lift storage in soft contemporary white

The Carinda pairs a full-footprint gas lift storage cavity with gloss white lacquer and softly curved corners throughout — headboard, footboard, side rails and feet. A stepped recessed channel runs across the headboard housing a built-in warm-white LED strip — architectural interest by day, and a soft ambient glow at night that lights the bed without a harsh overhead. It suits Japandi-leaning interiors, modern coastal styling and minimalist master suites where a matte black bed would feel too heavy and a timber-finish bed wouldn't read clean enough. Available in Queen and King, and part of the 3-piece Carinda range (no dresser with mirror in this range).

Full-footprint gas lift storage

Two heavy-duty hydraulic pistons lift the mattress platform one-handed. The storage cavity covers the entire bed footprint — far more capacity than any footboard drawer arrangement.

Softly curved corners throughout

Every edge is rounded — headboard, footboard, side rails, feet. The softened silhouette suits smaller bedrooms and pairs naturally with Japandi schemes.

Gloss white lacquer finish

Smooth paint-grade lacquer with no visible grain, knots or seams — brightens dim bedrooms and pairs with warm timber floors and neutral linen.

Built-in LED headboard light

The stepped/offset recessed channel across the headboard is a concealed warm-white LED strip — it traces the full width, including the stepped jog, for a soft ambient glow that doubles as the headboard's architectural detail. Switched from a button on the side of the headboard; plugs into a standard power point and the lead is included.

Works with your mattress

Will it fit your mattress?

A bed frame is only right with the right mattress. Here's what's included, what to buy, and how the slatted gas-lift platform supports it — the details most bed listings leave out.

🛏️

Mattress not included

Sold as the frame only. Choose your size, then pair a standard Australian mattress of the same size. See mattress options →

📏

Buy the matching size

Each frame fits a standard AU mattress of the same name — a Queen frame takes a 153 × 203 cm Queen mattress. The full size chart is in Dimensions.

🪵

Slat base, no box spring

The wooden slat base with centre support bar holds the mattress directly — no box spring or extra foundation needed. Works with foam, hybrid and spring mattresses.

Slat base & mattress support

Slat base included — suited to spring mattresses, and supports most foam and hybrid mattresses too. If you're matching a specific foam or hybrid mattress, check the slat spacing with our team before ordering, since some foam-mattress warranties require gaps under ~7.5 cm.

CartonsShips in 3 cartons — 169 × 127 × 11 cm, 215 × 53 × 22 cm, 153 × 203 × 5 cm

These figures were measured in-house from a Carinda in our showroom on 14 August 2026, not copied from a supplier sheet. Frame footprint is the floor space the assembled bed occupies; the mattress sits on the slat platform, so allow for mattress thickness above the slat height. Check the longest carton against your access route — stairwells, lift doors and tight corners are where flat-packed beds get stuck. If a measurement is critical, call our showroom team on 07 3161 5415 before you order. It ships flat-packed and does require assembly; a screwdriver is needed (electric drill recommended) and two people are recommended, as the gas-lift mechanism is heavier than a standard bed base.

↔️Drawer at the foot

Keep clear floor at the foot of the bed for the drawer; the castors need a clear path, so lift any rugs out of the way.

📦Ships flat-packed

Cartons clear a standard ~80 cm doorway even when the assembled piece is large. Still worth measuring for the bigger sizes.

🧭Room clearance

Allow 60–75 cm around the piece to move comfortably; remember the frame footprint runs a few cm larger than the mattress.

🚙Pickup vehicle

For free Rocklea pickup, a flat-pack fits most cars, but an assembled or oversized item needs a van, ute or trailer.

Care instructions

🧹

Soft microfibre cloth for dust

Wipe down weekly with a dry microfibre cloth. The gloss lacquer surface shows dust more than matte finishes, so regular dusting keeps the bed looking sharp.

💧

Damp cloth + mild soap on marks

For everyday marks, use a barely-damp cloth with mild soap, then dry immediately. Avoid abrasive pads, solvents or ammonia sprays — they dull the lacquer.

No hot items on the surface

Don't place hot mugs, hair tools or lamps directly on the headboard top edge. Heat can mark or warp the lacquered finish over time.

⚙️

Check the pistons periodically

Every few months, check the gas lift pistons and slat fastenings remain secure. Lift smoothly — don't force past the stop point.

FAQ

Common questions

Queen and King only. Single, King Single, and Double are not available. No mattress included.

The mattress sits on a slatted platform hinged at the head end. Two heavy-duty hydraulic gas pistons take the weight, so you can lift the entire platform with one hand. The cavity beneath covers the full bed footprint — much greater capacity than footboard pull-out drawers. Lower with a controlled hand rather than dropping.

Gloss — a smooth, reflective, paint-grade lacquer with no visible grain, knots or seams. It shows dust and fingerprints more readily than a matte finish, so weekly wipe-downs with a soft microfibre cloth keep it looking its best.

Queen sits on a 220 × 160 cm footprint (L × W) and King on 220 × 190 cm. The headboard stands 120 cm tall, the footboard 46 cm, and the slat platform sits 33 cm off the floor. It ships in 3 cartons — Queen: 169 × 127 × 11 cm, 215 × 53 × 22 cm, 153 × 203 × 5 cm; King: 199 × 127 × 11 cm, 215 × 53 × 22 cm, 183 × 203 × 5 cm. All measured in-house from our showroom unit on 14 August 2026. If a figure is critical to your room or access route, call us on 07 3161 5415 to double-check before you order.

No — the Carinda is sold as the frame only. Browse our mattress range to pair with it.

The Carinda Bedside Table and Carinda Tallboy — both with the same gloss white lacquer finish and curved-corner design language. There's no dresser with mirror in the Carinda range; ask our showroom team for alternatives if you want a fully coordinated 4-piece set.

Yes — the Carinda is on display across our five SE QLD showrooms: Rocklea, Virginia, Beenleigh, Bundall (Gold Coast) and North Ipswich. Floor models and current stock can vary, so we recommend calling ahead if you'd like to try the gas lift mechanism in person.

Full details

Carinda Gas Lift Bed Frame — full product details

Specs, styling & related range

The Carinda Gas Lift Bed Frame brings full-footprint gas-lift storage to a soft contemporary white bedroom. Two heavy-duty hydraulic pistons lift the entire mattress platform with a light pull on the base, holding it open for unobstructed access to a storage cavity that covers the whole bed footprint — far more capacity than any pair of footboard pull-out drawers. Spare bedding, off-season clothing and suitcases all live here instead of fighting for wardrobe space, and lowering is gentle and quiet thanks to the controlled gas-assisted mechanism.

Construction pairs solid New Zealand pine for the structural frame with MDF for the lacquered panels — headboard, footboard and base sides. NZ pine is the timber of choice for gas-lift bed bases thanks to its straight grain, dimensional stability and load-bearing strength for repeated lift cycles plus stored weight; MDF holds the flawless gloss white lacquer cleanly over time, where solid timber in a wide painted panel eventually cracks the finish as the wood moves with humidity. Every edge — headboard, footboard, side rails, feet — is softly rounded, and a stepped recessed channel housing a built-in warm-white LED strip — switched from the side of the headboard, plug-in, with the lead included — runs across the headboard for a touch of architectural interest.

Available in Queen and King, and part of the 3-piece Carinda range: the matching Carinda Bedside Table and Carinda Tallboy are sold separately (there's no dresser with mirror in this particular range). The bed is flat-packed for delivery and does require assembly, with two people recommended for handling the gas-lift base. Browse more storage beds and bed frames, or visit one of our five South-East Queensland showrooms in Rocklea, Virginia, Beenleigh, Bundall and North Ipswich to try the gas lift mechanism in person.
