About our Split Base

When easy access, manoeuvrability and flexibility matter, a split divan bed base gives you all of that, and more. Whether you’re navigating narrow stairwells, loft bedrooms with awkward corners or simply want a large bed that’s easy to move, this solution ticks every box.

What Is a Split Base Bed?

A split base divan bed (sometimes referred to as a split divan bed base, split king or split base single divan bed) comprises two (or more) smaller base sections that combine to form one full-sized base. These sections fit together securely to act as one unit, yet can be moved and installed individually. That means your base could arrive as two pieces on smaller sizes or four pieces on larger sizes, making installation in tight spaces far easier. 

Key Benefits of Split Base Bed Bases

  • Easier to move & install: Large bases can be heavy and tricky to manoeuvre through staircases, narrow hallways or loft conversions. Split bases break the job into manageable sections. 
  • Ideal for tight or awkward spaces: If your bedroom has unusual access, restricted doorways or you’re working in a loft, split sections allow smoother delivery and placement. 
  • Large bed size without compromise: You don’t have to sacrifice size. You can still opt for king or super-king dimensions; the base simply arrives and installs in parts. 
  • Flexible for future moves: Should you redecorate, move house or repurpose a room, a split base can be taken apart and relocated more easily than a one-piece base.
  • Customisation & storage options: Many split bases come with full divan features, drawer storage, optional legs or castors, fabric choices, giving the same style and function with added practicality. 

Sizes and Options

Our split base bed collection supports all standard UK sizes, from singles to super kings. Smaller sizes might split into two sections; larger sizes split into four. Plus, you can select storage options (drawers, ottoman lift etc), fabric finishes, height settings and more.

Handmade in the UK

Every base in the collection from Divan Base Direct is crafted in the UK, using quality materials and robust construction. Choose your fabric, storage specification and let the split-base design ensure your large bed fits your space with ease.

“We had difficulty in finding a company that could solve the problem of getting a six foot wide bed base up our stairs. Divan Base direct solved the problem straight away. They were able to supply the base in four parts instead of two, which went up the stairs no problem. They delivered and assembled. A quality base at a competative price. We are very pleased.”
