FREE STANDING PIECE OF FURNITURE / MEASUREMENTS
The Double Space Bed (DSB) can be placed anywhere (including against walls with windows), and oriented head or side to wall.  Two
bed platform / column configurations are available to help fit your needs.  The DSB doesn't need to be mounted to a wall, ceiling or floor
like many other "space saving" beds, making it ideal for apartments where altering the dwelling's surfaces is undesirable.  
DSB's
dimensions:
Overall height is adjustable between 7'6" to 8'6",  width x length - twin 42" x 94"  /     twin XL 42" x 100" /  full 56" x 100" /  
queen 62" x 100" / king 79" x 103".
 Bed platform ceiling height avg. (up = of 6'6" to 7'6" / down at sleep position = 18" to 40").  Avg. top of
mattress height  30" to 52"
. This height range will accommodate most furniture arrangements below.  No ladder needed for access!  

OPEN SIDES, OPEN FEEL
The Double Space Bed's 4-column/post design leaves your room with an open feel.  With the bed up, the bed platform-ceiling is
exceptionally high (6'9" avg.), leaving plenty of usable standing room below. When the bed is lowered, the abundance of overhead room
and the 3-sided DSB configuration gives it a further sense of open space.  The DSB can be placed in front of walls with windows -
typically without obstructing the view.  When using the bed in sleep -position, there's no climbing up a ladder, and no headaches from
bumping into the ceiling like a loft bed.

USE ANY STYLE OF STANDARD SIZED MATTRESS
Any style mattress will work with the DSB - you can even use your own favorite mattress without having to buy one with the Double Space
Bed, unlike many other "space saving" beds on the market today.  Even heavy memory-foam mattresses will work, in fact there is an
approximate 150 lb. weight limit on the mattress (which works for almost all mattresses made today).  The only limiting factor on
mattress loft (or height) is the height of your ceiling.

SIMPLE, EASY TO USE MANUAL MOVEMENT
The DSB uses a virtually silent, non-electric patent pending movement system that allows easy movement with minimal force. Simply
pull the bed down to use.  Release the automatic latch (automatically latched in the lowered/sleep position for safety) and push back up
when done - takes about 5 to 10 seconds.  There is an quick and easy adjustment for different mattress weights and seasonal bedding
needs.  Designs for an electric motor assisted model of Double Space Bed are in the works.  The motor assisted model will have the
same Balanced Movement System, thus having the same safety features as the standard model.

A "GREEN / ECO-FRIENDLY" PRODUCT
As an important component of design, the DSB has many "green / earth friendly" features:
1)  The creation of 25 to 40 sf. of new usable space, allowing better utilization of dwelling space, and future dwelling size design.
2)  Built to last a lifetime (or two). The DSB is not another "throw away" product that is ultimately made for the landfill. Along with
repairable/replaceable (if damaged) parts, this becomes an important eco-friendly component.
3)  Manufactured with a rigid inner framework and flat outer (furniture) panels that are easily packaged to reduce shipping weight and
size, and reduce waste due to damaged goods from production and shipping.  Some of the heavier components will be obtained by
your local installer from companies near you  - thus significantly reducing shipping weight and associated pollution.
4)  The bed can be made with FSC lumber, bamboo / renewable or recycled material exterior panels.
5)  Low, or no VOC finishes can also be used.

CUSTOMIZATION / ACCESSORIES
The DSB offers the ultimate in customization with its outer mounted (furniture) panels offering a wide variety of looks - from base models
using melamine outer panels, "Green" models made earth friendly panels, to higher-end models with raised panel hardwoods.  The
only limited factor is your imagination.  There is also an unlimited variety of supplemental furniture (furniture that is under the bed, in the
alcove) that can be made to match your DSB.  

BUILT TO LAST A LIFETIME (OR TWO) / SAFETY FEATURES
The Double Space Bed is built with heavy duty industrial movement components that are rated at a multitude of their given weight load,
and has an inner frame system that allows removal of the outer furniture panels (if repair is needed in the event of damage).  The DSB
has proprietary built-in safety features, making accidental movement or falling of the bed impossible.  In addition, there are no exposed
moving parts, and theres a built-in automatic latch (when lowered), allowing easy mattress or bedding changes, while avoiding
unintentional rapid upward movement when the mattress is lifted (a problem typical of wall beds).

THE COST OF SPACE
The Double Space Bed directly delivers 25 to 40 square feet of new space to you.  It does this by allowing the bed to occupy the same
space as the furniture below. In the US alone, this space averages between $99 and $1,163 per square foot  (Charlotte, NC and
Manhattan, NY -
source: RPX monthly Nov. 2007).  That's $2,475 to $45,560 in added value of new space, offsetting much of, all, or  
multiple times the
DSB purchase price.

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION
The DSBS will require professional installation, or can be installed by a skilled handy-person or homeowner. Installation instructional
video and manual will be available for download here, or instructional DVD and manual will be sent with the product upon request.
