bedframe

Sleeper's structural base

A bedframe is the structural support that holds a mattress and box spring off the floor.

It typically consists of a headboard, footboard, and side rails, though simpler versions may be just a metal frame with legs.

We need a new bedframe—this one squeaks every time you move.

The bedframe provides both practical support and aesthetic framing for the bed as furniture.
