Converting existing bed to hydraulic bed King Size

There are several ways to add storage under a bed. For example, there are Murphy Bed kits with hydraulic struts that allow the platform of the bed to rise completely vertically. I would recommend contacting a carpenter like myself to discuss your storage needs and then review options from there.

You can buy a hydraulic lift kit online and hire a handyman to install it. People do this all the time to turn a regular wooden bed into a storage-lift bed. What to check first: (1) your wood frame must be solid and have some weight (sometimes needs extra support), (2) the kit must match your mattress weight, and (3) the handyman should be comfortable installing hinges/pistons.

Yes, you can absolutely hire a handyman to convert your wooden bed frame because your solid mattress board provides the perfect rigid platform for mounting the lift mechanisms. The handyman will securely bolt the heavy-duty metal hinges to the inner frame, calculate the correct pivot points so the mattress clears the wall, and reinforce the wooden joints to handle the new upward lifting leverage safely. Before booking a pro, ensure the online kit you purchase specifies the exact weight rating for your mattress size so the gas pistons can lift and hold it open safely.
