Amish Bedroom Furniture: Beds

These Amish beds are beautifully handcrafted from solid wood, including the side rails and slats. Headboard and footboards are constructed with full mortise and tenon joinery for superior strength. All Amish beds are custom made one at a time and can be made as either a platform bed, or a regular bed to fit a box spring and mattress. (Platform beds come with extra slats.) Let us know the exact dimensions of your mattress and boxspring and we will adjust the headboard placement accordingly. Footboards can also be made higher or lower to suit your needs.

King beds come with a center rail for support and a set of slats for each side. Platform beds require more slats, and therefore have an additional charge. Slats are preferable to solid planks of plywood since the spacing between them allows mattress to breathe.

Amish beds (both Mission and Shaker styles) feature steel bed rail fasteners which are mortised into the headboard and side rails. These beds are extremely easy to assemble (no tools are required). They consist of a headboard, a footboard, two side rails and bed slats.

The Shaker Pencil Post beds come with old-fashioned steel bed bolts and solid brass bed bolt covers. These beds require a bed bolt wrench for assembly, which we supply. These Amish made beds consist of four posts, a headboard piece, along with head, foot and side rails and bed slats.
