Your bedroom should be more than just a place to sleep — it should be a sanctuary. In today’s fast-paced world, people are increasingly turning to furniture that combines practicality with luxury, and nowhere is that more important than in the bed you sleep on every night. If you’re looking to upgrade your sleep setup, an ottoman bed is a smart and stylish choice. But what really sets it apart is the option to choose custom finishes that reflect your personal taste and transform your bed into a statement piece.
Far more than a functional base, a custom ottoman blends seamless storage with the aesthetics of a boutique hotel. At Endurance Beds, we believe that great sleep starts with great design — and with our handcrafted, made-to-order beds, you don’t have to compromise on either. It’s time to reimagine your bedroom as a luxurious, clutter-free haven built just for you.
What Is an Ottoman Bed?
A ottoman storage bed combines two powerful features: a clean, supportive base and a hidden ottoman-style storage compartment. Unlike traditional beds with visible legs or open spaces underneath, ottomans sit low and flush to the floor, giving your bedroom a streamlined, modern look. The top of the base lifts up smoothly — usually assisted by gas-lift hydraulics — to reveal a generous storage area inside, perfect for bedding, seasonal clothes, or anything you’d rather keep out of sight.
What makes these beds so popular is their ability to offer both form and function without compromise. With Endurance Beds, you take this one step further by choosing custom finishes to tailor every aspect of the bed to your taste. Whether you prefer a timeless linen texture or a bold velvet in deep jewel tones, your bed becomes more than just a place to sleep — it becomes a centrepiece designed just for you.
The Long-Term Investment: Durability Meets Design
A bed isn’t something you replace often — it’s a long-term commitment. That’s why choosing a custom ottoman from Endurance Beds is more than a style decision; it’s a smart investment in durability and lasting comfort. Each storage base is handcrafted in the UK using high-quality materials designed to withstand daily use. From the robust timber frame to the heavy-duty lift mechanism, every component is built for strength and longevity.
Unlike flimsy flat-pack options, our beds are made to order with careful attention to detail, ensuring they hold up over time — even with frequent lifting and access to the storage beneath. The stability of a well-constructed ottoman doesn’t just extend the life of the bed itself; it also helps maintain the condition of your mattress, giving you years of supportive, restful sleep.
But long-term value doesn’t stop at structural quality. With a wide choice of custom finishes, your storage bed can be designed to grow with your style. Neutral tones remain timeless, while bold textures or colours can elevate your space into something uniquely yours. A thoughtfully crafted bed isn’t just furniture — it’s a foundation for better living, year after year.
Storage that Works Hard for You
One of the standout features of a storage bed is its ingenious use of space. With storage built directly into the base, you gain a large, easily accessible compartment that’s completely hidden from view — no bulky drawers, no need for extra furniture. It’s the perfect solution for homes where storage is at a premium or where minimalist design is key.
Whether you’re stashing away winter duvets, extra bedding, out-of-season clothes, or even your partner’s ever-growing trainer collection, a custom ottoman keeps your essentials neatly tucked away and dust-free. The hydraulic lift mechanism makes opening and closing effortless, even with a mattress on top.
Paired with custom finishes, this smart storage solution becomes part of your interior aesthetic. Choose a soft fabric or sleek tone that complements your bedroom, and you’ll have a bed that not only works harder for you — but looks effortlessly stylish doing it.
Custom Finishes: Designing Your Dream Bed
One of the most exciting aspects of choosing a custom ottoman from Endurance Beds is the freedom to personalise every detail. With our wide range of custom finishes, your bed becomes more than a functional piece — it becomes a true reflection of your style. Whether you’re going for calm and contemporary or bold and boutique, there’s a finish to match.
Start by selecting your upholstery. Choose from soft linens, plush velvets, or textured weaves — all available in a curated palette of colours, from warm neutrals and deep charcoals to rich jewel tones. Looking to make a statement? Opt for a vibrant teal or mustard. Prefer something timeless? Classic greys and beiges offer versatility and elegance.
Our bespoke approach means you can tailor your bed to complement existing décor or serve as the focal point for a bedroom makeover. Add finishing touches like a matching headboard or contrast piping for a designer edge.
Better still, these finishes aren’t just beautiful — they’re durable and practical. Many of our fabrics are stain-resistant or easy to clean, making them ideal for family homes or pet-friendly spaces. With custom finishes, your dream bed isn’t just imagined — it’s handcrafted to order.
The Luxury Sleep Experience Starts at the Base
When it comes to a luxurious night’s sleep, most people focus on the mattress — but the truth is, a high-quality base plays just as important a role. A well-built ottoman provides the solid foundation your mattress needs to perform at its best. No creaks, no sagging, just consistent support that enhances comfort and helps extend the lifespan of your mattress.
At Endurance Beds, our storage beds are crafted with strength and structure in mind, so you can enjoy hotel-quality rest in your own home. But beyond function, our custom finishes bring that luxury feel to life visually. Picture a soft velvet base in a rich navy blue or a linen-textured neutral paired with a winged headboard — every detail adds to the experience.
Luxury isn’t just about thread counts or mattress depth. It’s about surrounding yourself with thoughtful design, tailored comfort, and beautiful materials — starting from the ground up.
The Perfect Pairing: Headboards and Custom Ottomans
No luxury sleep setup is complete without the perfect headboard — and when paired with a custom ottoman, it creates a showstopping centrepiece. While ottomans provide discreet storage and a clean, upholstered silhouette, a well-chosen headboard brings balance, character, and vertical impact to your bedroom design.
At Endurance Beds, we offer a wide selection of headboard styles to complement your storage bed, from timeless buttoned finishes to sleek fluted panels and elegant winged designs. The beauty lies in the details — each headboard can be upholstered in the same custom fabric as your ottoman or styled in a contrasting tone for a bold, design-led statement.
Whether you're after a classic backdrop or something modern and minimalist, a matching headboard elevates your sleep space into something truly bespoke. It's the finishing touch that blends comfort with visual appeal — making your bed a reflection of your personal style, not just a piece of furniture.
Tailored to You: Bespoke Sizes and Configurations
At Endurance Beds, personalisation goes far beyond choosing a fabric or colour. Our custom ottomans are made to order in bespoke sizes and configurations to suit your unique space and needs. Whether you're furnishing a compact guest room or designing a statement piece for a master bedroom, we can craft a solution that fits perfectly — both physically and stylistically.
Need a longer bed for extra legroom? Want a split base to navigate a tight staircase or awkward loft conversion? We’ve got you covered. Every storage bed is built with real homes in mind, which means flexibility in both dimensions and design.
You don’t have to settle for one-size-fits-all when it comes to your sleep setup. With our made-to-measure approach, you get the ideal combination of form, function, and finesse — a bed that meets your requirements to the letter and reflects your taste in every stitch.
