Queen bed frames

Queen bed frames are Australia's most popular size, roomy enough for two without overwhelming a standard bedroom. Choose from timber, wooden, or upholstered styles, with or without a headboard, to suit your bedroom's personality.

Queen bed frame dimensions

A standard queen bed frame measures 153cm wide x 203cm long, roomy enough for two people to sleep comfortably without taking over a standard bedroom. You'll want at least 10m² of floor space to give things room to breathe. Weighing up queen versus king? Our bed size guide lays it all out so you can measure up properly before you commit rather than after.

How to choose the right queen bed frame

The frame you choose will shape how your bedroom looks and feels every single day, so it's worth a little more thought than just picking whichever one ships fastest. Here's what matters most:

Style and material

Material sets the mood for the whole room, which is why it's usually the most satisfying place to start. A timber queen bed frame brings warmth and natural character that works across coastal, contemporary, and classic Australian bedrooms, and tends to get better looking over time rather than worse. Wooden queen bed frames, typically built from engineered or composite wood, deliver the same warm aesthetic at a more affordable price point and still hold their own for years. If you want something softer and more considered, an upholstered queen bed frame adds texture and that hotel-room finish that's quietly impressive every single day. Whatever direction you go, choose something that works for the whole room, not just something that photographs well.

Headboards

Never underestimate a good headboard. A queen bed frame headboard changes the entire feel of a bedroom and gives you something to actually lean back against, which turns out to matter far more than you'd expect. Some frames include a headboard as part of the design. Others are sold as a base only so you can mix and match and get exactly the combination you want. A queen bed with a bed head is one of those upgrades that reads like a small detail on paper and feels completely transformative once it's in the room. If you already have a queen mattress and just need the frame to complete the setup, this is the part that ties everything together.
