Information on Ordering
Beds
S. Timberlake Beds are
"built-to-order" according to customer mattress and bedding
requirements. Questions that we will ask our customers when they
place their order are:
- What is the size of the
mattress you will be using?
- Will mattress have a
boxspring?
- Desired height of mattress
measured from floor to top of mattress
- Will their be any storage
space requirements under the bed?
Typically, S. Timberlake builds
beds that have 1/2" - 1" of space between rails, head and footboards
and the matress. This allows for bedding and any irregularities in
mattress or boxspring. We use the sizing below as our guide.
Mattress Size
Note: some manufacturers are
shaving inches off of these "standard" sizes. Understand the exact
size of the mattress you decide to purchase and how fitted sheets may
not fit correctly on non-standard sized mattresses.

** FITTED SHEETS: Please note that
mattress depths vary widely by manufacturer. Measure the depth of
your mattress before purchasing sheets. Standard and older mattresses
average 9-12", while newer pillow-top mattresses are 14-16" deep and
up. These deeper mattresses will require additional depth in fitted
sheets. FLAT SHEETS: If you own an extra-deep mattress, be aware of
flat sheet sizes as well. Choose the largest sizes available so there
will be an adequate length to tuck in at least 8-12" underneath the
end of the bed. In some cases it may be necessary to purchase the
next size up (a queen flat sheet for a double bed, etc.), in order to
cover the deeper mattress.
+ The dimensions of flat sheets vary
somewhat in width and length by manufacturer. The + denotes that some
manufacturers offer sheets with a few added inches. Look for these to
use on the larger, pillow-top mattresses.
