Wall beds in Newham: how it works
You need room in front of the cabinet to lower the bed, so we plan the layout with that in mind. Furniture in front of the bed has to be easy to move or kept out of the way, so the bed can come down without a shuffle. We make wall beds from moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, finished by spray or by hand, and the usual reasons to get in touch are a flexible room for a growing family and a bed that fills a little-used room.
You are welcome to ask questions while we work. Most of the decisions were made during the design visit and set out in your quote, so the day itself is about careful fitting and leaving everything tidy. The time the fitting takes depends on the design and how much storage goes around the bed, and the fitting days are agreed in your quote.
- We start with how the room is used and who’ll sleep there. The bed can sit among shelves or beside a desk.
- We visit to measure up and look at what the wall is made of.
- A quote follows, setting out the design and finish.
- The bed housing and any shelves are made in our workshop.
- We fit it in your home, with the mechanism fixed as its maker specifies.

Wall beds across Newham: local notes
In Newham, a spare room often doubles as a study or a guest room. The design can help one room work two ways.
The biggest shares of homes in Newham were built before 1919 (about 37%) and since 2000 (about 29%), in the VOA’s 2025 council tax stock figures. Each era brings its own kind of wall, ceiling height and floor, so it shapes the design from the first measurement. A quarter or more of the homes in Newham (about 29%) were built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax figures (2025). Bedrooms in homes built since 2000 tend to be compact, with stud walls, so fitted furniture is fixed to suit the board. Terraced houses are home to about 31% of households in Newham, going by Census 2021 figures from the ONS. London terraces normally have a small back bedroom and alcoves in the main bedroom, both good spaces for fitted storage.
We make fitted furniture for every kind of home in Newham, from Victorian terraces to new-build flats. The process is the same wherever you are: a design visit, a quote in writing, then making and fitting.
Plaistow: If you live in a flat close to West Ham station, wall beds are made in sections sized for the stairs, landings and lift, so measuring the route matters as much as measuring the room. For a family home near Kaizen Primary School, a mix of drawers and shelves copes with school uniform as well as everything else.
Where other trades come in
Not everything around wall beds is carpentry, from an electrician to a plumber or a Gas Safe engineer. Here’s what to know:
- Wiring for lights or chargers
- Advice on your lease
- Supplying mattresses
Looking after your furniture
People planning wall beds often ask about these. They help before and after fitting:
- Plan a cupboard for spare bedding
- Plan where chairs and desks will sit
- Check your lease if you live in a flat
- Check mattress size and weight limits
The mechanism maker’s guidance says how much bedding can stay on the bed when it folds away. We can build a cupboard beside the bed for extra bedding.
Leasehold flats can have rules on alterations, so check your lease early. Your lease is something to check with whoever manages the building.
What it is made from
Hand-painted finish
Some people like the softer look of a hand-painted finish that suits older homes.
Bed mechanism housing
We design the housing around the mechanism and the bed size you choose.
Why people ask for wall beds in Newham
Others want the bed to be part of a wider storage wall. Cupboards and shelving either side make the whole wall useful.
Here are some of the needs we are asked about most:
- A guest room that sits empty most of the time
- A living room with a bed that folds away
- A hobby room with a bed for guests
- A guest bed that disappears in the day
What affects the price in Newham
Several things affect the price:
- Parking near your home
- The overall size of the piece
- The internal fittings

Your quote is written for your room once we’ve visited and measured. Size, the number of doors and drawers and the internal fittings make the biggest difference to the price.

FAQs: wall beds in Newham
Can you fit furniture to uneven walls?
Walls and floors that aren’t true are part of the job in older homes. The furniture is scribed to follow the walls and levelled on feet or a plinth, so there are no gaps at the sides.
Can you fit furniture on an external wall?
It needs a little planning: ventilation behind and inside the furniture helps avoid condensation and mould. We don’t treat damp, so any damp should be sorted before fitting day.
Is a mattress included with the wall bed?
What matters most is that the mattress suits the mechanism. We’ll explain its limits at the measuring visit, so you can choose with confidence.
How is the furniture painted?
You can choose between two finishes: spray painted or hand painted. A spray finish is smooth and even, while a hand-painted one is easy to touch up later.
Which boards do you build with?
Moisture-resistant MDF and birch plywood, each used where it suits the job best. The materials are named in your written quote.
Is a wall bed safe for everyday use?
Safety depends on a secure fixing and sensible use. The mechanism is fixed exactly as its maker sets out, and you keep the space in front clear and children away while it moves.
Do you do plastering or decorating?
No. We make, fit and finish the furniture, and plastering and decorating are for other trades. The furniture itself is spray painted or hand painted.
