While mattress lengths and widths are standardized, how high your bed sits off the floor is not. The depth of your mattress and box springs combine with the height of the bed frame to determine the height of your bed from the floor. Standard Dimensions Typical mattress pocket depths vary from 8 to 18 inches, and box springs usually measure 8 to 12 inches deep. “Bunkie boards” allow for a lower bed height, since they measure only 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 inches deep. Standard bed frames raise box springs and mattresses 7 1/2 inches off the floor. Different Bed Heights The average bed height today is about 25 inches. At this height, your feet can reach the floor when you're seated on the edge of the mattress. Built 36 inches off the floor, an antique bed is quite high, while a modern platform bed is typically only about 18 inches high. Benefits of Various Bed Heights Higher beds may provide more storage room, assuming a taller-than-standard bed frame contributes to the height. Lower beds have a more modern look and may provide the aesthetic you like.
Lower beds are also appropriate for children since they are easier to climb into and offer a shorter distance to fall if the child rolls out of bed. Older people sometimes like higher beds since they're easier to get in and out of. /Getty Images Suggest a Correction Wayfair Sleep Standard Box Spring Overall Height - Top to Bottom: 9'' 4" Low Profile Mattress Foundation Low profile foundation supports all types of mattresses, including foam Easy to assemble foundation, box can fit through narrow staircases or hallways Prevents sagging and increases mattress longevity Standing Smart 14" Box Spring Overall Height - Top to Bottom: 14'' Wayfair Sleep Folding Box Spring Folding mattress foundation compresses for easy mobility and storage Designed to have the look of a traditional box spring with heavy gauge steel frame and fabric cover Wayfair Sleep Low Profile Box Spring Overall Height - Top to Bottom: 5'' 8" Instant Foundation Box Spring for Bed Mattress
