It suits both of our sleeping styles.” Now you can sleep with a mattress that gets you. “It’s so much better than my old mattress.” “It’s a whole new world of relaxation.” You’re an individual and you don’t sleep like anyone else out there, including the person sleeping next to you. Share a bed without sharing restless nights. We take the combination of both of your individual results to create a happy medium across the whole mattress. We take each of your results and individually personalize each side, splitting the mattress down the middle. “It had the right feel, I didn’t get hot, and five hours of sleep on this mattress felt like seven.” “Normally I wake up with a bit of lower back and left knee pain. I truly felt invigorated, too.” “My husband and I have a Helix and it's insane how much cooler I am now.” Book a custom fitting for your very own Helix Mattress.AT the factory under the Bruckner Expressway in the Bronx, mattresses, box springs and daybeds have been made in the same manner for 57 years.
''All done by hand, start to finish,'' said Ted Marschke, the president of Charles H. Beckley, a manufacturer of custom bedding. ''We cut, sew and fill one mattress at a time,'' Mr. Marschke said. ''We don't mass-produce anything.'' The company has made beds for Blair House in Washington as well as a diamond-shaped bed for a Hollywood producer. If you are in love with an antique four-poster bed of an unusual size, Beckley will make a mattress to fit it. The company makes house calls to get measurements. Extra-long mattresses are often requested these days. ''People want that extra length,'' Mr. Marschke said. California king-size mattresses, a few inches longer and narrower than regular king-size beds, are growing in popularity. So are extra-high beds. For one decorator who is a client, the box spring alone has to be 20 inches high, Mr. Marschke said. (Standard box springs are 7 inches high.) Mattresses are stuffed with a combination of horsehair, hog hair and cotton felt.
''Horsehair gives you a longer-lasting mattress,'' Mr. Marschke said. ''It has more resiliency to it.'' The company uses synthetic hair for people allergic to horsehair. The inner spring is wrapped in burlap, which prevents the horsehair from getting into the coils. The steel springs come in different weights: the heavier the metal, the firmer the mattress. ''Extra-firm is the most popular,'' Mr. Marschke said. The coils are tied by hand, a process that, Mr. Marschke said, ''gives you better support and more comfort.'' Five all-cotton mattress tickings are available, including a blue pin stripe and a solid ecru. Mattresses are hand-finished with what is called in the trade an imperial edge. Wheels are built into the wood frame of the box spring, eliminating the need for a separate metal frame. Box springs can be upholstered in a customer's fabric, making a dust ruffle unnecessary. Mr. Marschke said his mattresses, if maintained, should last 30 years. He advises turning a mattress once a week for the first month and once a month thereafter.
Frequent cleaning and airing, especially in hot, humid weather, are also important. Twin mattresses start at $513 and king-sizes at $1,071. Box springs with wheels start at $578 for a twin and at $1,242 for a king. Mattress sets take four to eight weeks to make. For 160 years, Frank A. Hall & Sons has been in the custom bedding business. ''We do ovals, round, L-shaped and we just did an S-shaped mattress,'' said Norris Hansen, an owner of the Manhattan company. He said the mattresses are stuffed with cotton, pure horsehair and lamb's wool. The company will make even the most old-fashioned of mattresses: 100 percent horsehair. Electric beds on which the foot and head can be elevated are a specialty. Using motors from aircraft landing gear, Mr. Hansen can make any bed an electric model; he recently adapted an 18th-century Italian bed. A queen-size bed averages $1,800 for both box spring and mattress. Work takes two to three weeks. Harry Beltrani, the owner of the 54-year-old Bedcraft by Beltrani in Inwood, L.I., will make any shape of mattress, including heart-shaped ones.
His mattresses, all handmade, are stuffed with horsehair and cotton felt. ''This year was the biggest run we've had on horsehair since about 1965,'' he said. ''I don't know if people were listening to Grandma or what. ''The horsehair keeps you cooler in summer because it ventilates. And in wintertime, the felt keeps you warmer.'' Twin mattresses and box springs each start at $375, king-sizes at $800. Work takes about two weeks. Here's Where CHARLES H. BECKLEY'S showroom is at 306 East 61st Street; 212-759-8450.
