Murphy Door Murphy Bed Hardware Kit Vertical Queen
Hardware only, so the cabinet is yours to build. No dimension table is published on this page. Patented gas-piston pull-down mechanism machined in house, counterbalanced to the mattress weight and rated to 600 lbs. Takes a standard mattress up to 11 inches with no box spring, and the mattress is not included. The maker gives the open depth only as an approximation in prose rather than a specification, so we leave it blank rather than record a rounded marketing figure. The published price is a single starting figure with size selected as an option, and it is recorded here against the smallest size offered.

Who this suits
Worth a look if
- You would rather spend the budget on hardware than on finished furniture, and you are willing to build the cabinet.
- You have a wall you can drill into and want the cabinet held flat and solid against it.
- You want the lift to feel light and even, and you would rather not re-tension anything.
Look elsewhere if
- You cannot make holes in the wall. This one is designed to be anchored to it.
- You expected a mattress in the price. Budget for one on top of the figures in the table.
- You need a king. This model is not offered in one.
What Murphy Door publishes, and what it does not
We track 6 figures on a hardware kit before calling a record complete. Murphy Door publishes 4 of them for the Murphy Bed Hardware Kit Vertical Queen. The 2 it leaves out are worth knowing before you buy, because each one is a decision you will end up making without the maker's help.
- Not published: the mattress weight window. Which means no weight rating is given, which matters because the counterbalance is tuned to a range rather than to any mattress.
- Not published: assembly time. Which means the maker offers no estimate of how long this takes to put together, which is worth asking if you are paying somebody by the hour.
We leave these blank rather than estimating them. A — in our tables is always a gap in the manufacturer's own documentation, never a number we chose not to look up.
What people get wrong with this one
Buying the mattress first
Murphy beds cap mattress thickness because the mattress has to fold into the cabinet with the bed. This one stops at 11 inches. A mattress bought before the bed is the most common expensive mistake in this category.
Underestimating the cabinet build
The hardware is the straightforward part. The cabinet is several sheets of plywood, square cuts and a finish, and it is the part that decides whether the result looks built in or homemade.
Anchoring into drywall alone
A wall mounted bed transfers real load into the wall. Studs or solid blocking are not optional, and finding them before delivery day saves an unhappy afternoon.
