Can a HDB Lift Fit a King Size Mattress?
Are you considering buying a king size bed for your HDB flat? While upgrading your sleep comfort is indeed exciting, the logistics of getting the mattress to your home are often tricky. One key question to ask before making your purchase is: can an HDB lift fit a king size mattress? In this article, we’ll share valuable tips to ensure a smooth delivery process for your new mattress. Most importantly, to make sure it fits into an HDB lift.
1. Checking HDB Lift Dimensions
HDB lifts come in different sizes, especially when comparing newer flats to older ones. It’s crucial to measure your lift’s dimensions to assess whether it can accommodate a king size bed. The typical HDB lift dimensions in Singapore are around 1100mm (width) x 1400mm (depth). While this might sound spacious, a standard king size mattress measures about 1830mm x 1900mm, which means fitting it into the lift requires careful consideration.
Meanwhile, it’s a good idea to check with the sales staff about the delivery process. They can provide insights on whether the mattress can fit in the lift. With their expertise and professional advice, the delivery process can be smooth and hassle-free.
If you’re dealing with an older flat, the HDB lift dimensions for mattresses may be even smaller. By measuring the lift cabin in advance, you ensure a smooth mattress delivery in Singapore.
2. Assessing Space Constraints
A king size mattress is not only large; it may also be quite thick. This possibly further complicates fitting your king mattress in the HDB lift. To avoid delivery day frustrations, assess both the HDB lift size and other space constraints like the flat’s hallways.
Therefore, before ordering, measure the HDB lift for large furniture to avoid unexpected hurdles. On top of that, factor in flat entrances and room dimensions so your belongings can pass through doorways and corridors. You won’t want to find yourself stuck at the lift with no way to get your mattress into your home.
