We are getting a king bed from some friends but it is only the mattress and the box springs no frame.
Can you fit a king mattress on a california king frame.
This is the difference between a regular and a california king so a king size headboard would be 2 wider on each side but should work.
You can easily spot the difference because it is longer and narrower than a king sized bed.
The frame will hold your bed since it s bigger but some of the frame will be sticking out.
A king bed frame holds a mattress that is 76 inches wide and 80 inches long.
We currently have a california king bed.
California king sized bed frames typically measure 72 inches wide and 83 5 inches in length.
It is perfect for those who think that 78 8 inches width of a king bed is too much.
Filling the bed frame if your king size bed frame is a headboard with a metal rails type of bed frame then you can accommodate the larger mattress by replacing the king size rails with longer.
These two mattresses differ in their dimensions.
Your queen mattress is only 60 inches wide but it is also 80 inches long.
