**Custom, Sleigh and ‘Platform type’ beds have an equally strong but alternative method of construction. *2 extra slats are supplied with our pocket spring mattresses. These are not webbed. *‘Platform’ bed slats are not pre spaced or webbed and each slat must be screwed down. *** ‘Platform type’ beds under 5’6” (167 cm) wide do not need a centre beam because the slats overhang the frame, reducing the span. Beds which are 4’0” (122 cm) and narrower do not need a centre beam.

GUARANTEE EXCLUSIONS: Damage caused by poor care, misuse or accident;

non structural, natural characteristics of timber (i.e. minor fissures and movement caused

by heat and moisture); surface finishes; mattress handles; folded or damaged mattresses.

N.B. All items and bed components considered eligible

for repair or replacement must be returned to our workshops.

Please note: Sizes are approximate and may vary slightly. Cancelled orders will be subject to a charge.

We reserve the right to alter prices and specifications without notice. All prices include VAT, but not delivery.

Wooden beds are frequently chosen for their outward appearance...

No matter how enticing they appear in photographs, or how skilfully displayed, you may be surprised when you discover what lurks beneath the mattress. This is where significant hidden cost savings can be made.  

If we were to cut corners, our beds would appear just as sturdy, but they would not be nearly as strong.

There’s no need to rush...

Don’t be fooled by the price ‘reductions’ designed to rush you into buying. These are invariably renewed upon expiry. A bed is a long term investment, so it is worth taking a good look around before choosing. Those ‘bargains’ will almost certainly still be there.

Transparent pricing and long term good value ensure that our customers know what they are paying for, and this straightforward approach has brought the repeat custom and goodwill that has stood us in good stead since 1979.

When the lights are out, a solid base

and a top quality mattress are what really counts

All Litvinoff and Fawcett bed bases have a

LIFETIME STRUCTURAL GUARANTEE

In the event of failure or instability, we guarantee to

repair (or replace) them free of charge.

This guarantee has remained in place since 1989.

Our MATTRESSES are guaranteed against faulty workmanship

and components for TEN YEARS  (more)

The strong centre beam*** prevents: a) the slats from sagging; b) a tendency to sink into the middle of the bed; and  

c) disturbance caused by a restless partner.  It also ensures a flat, stable base that prolongs the life of a mattress.  

Virtually indestructible slats allow the mattress to ‘breathe’.

1” x 6” (25 X 150 mm) solid timber is costlier and more reliable than  flimsy 'sprung' plywood slats which are prone to invert or break, and which are almost impossible to repair or replace.

Our bases can be dismantled and

rebuilt time and again without weakening. If movement or creaking develops, gentle re-tightening of the bolts restores rigidity. Moreover these are hidden fixings ** which do not spoil the appearance of the bed.  

The mortise and tenon joints ** are secured with bolts, not with screws! Wood screws will eventually work loose and cannot be re tightened. We have never used cost and labour saving methods or gadgets in our construction.                                                                                                                         

“When looking for a well constructed bed, grab one corner and shake it with all your might. Needless to say the slatted beds made here budge not a jot

and come with a lifetime structural guarantee”

QUALITY MATTRESSES   

As makers we have full control over our mattress production. Furthermore, all of our mattresses are still hand made with natural fillings - as are the best and most expensive from other suppliers.

We offer a price advantage that retailers and wooden bed companies

that buy mattresses in, simply cannot.

BUILT TO LAST  

Few makers are prepared to offer a genuine open ended lifetime guarantee on wooden bed frames. One reason is that the joints connecting the head and footboard are prone to weaken. If they cannot be restored to full tightness, instability invariably sets in. This is usually dismissed as ‘fair wear and tear’. However, we have always been willing to rectify structural faults, regardless of age and without charge.

With thousands of beds under guarantee, it’s in our interest to ensure that this rarely happens

Our commitment to quality extends throughout the range,

from basic platform beds and open coil mattresses to more costly

solid oak beds and pocket spring mattresses.
