What type of wood do you use for murphy beds?
You can use any type of wood for your murphy cabinet bed. However, we recommend using a softer wood, like pine. This will make it easier to decorate and style your home with our murphy cabinet beds. Plus, using softer wood will help prevent damage to your walls when you open and close the bed. We have some great pine murphy beds in stock now at Carleton’s Furniture and Mattress.

Building tips
You can absolutely use pine to build your very own murphy bed! Here are a few tips to get you started:
1. Decide on the size of your bed. Will it be a twin, full, or queen?
2. Once you have the dimensions, cut your boards to size. You’ll need four side panels, a top panel, and a bottom panel.
3. Assemble the frame of your bed using wood glue and screws.
Pros and cons of buying an already made one
When it comes to deciding whether or not to buy an already-made Murphy Cabinet Bed, there are pros and cons to consider. On the plus side, you’ll save yourself time and effort in terms of assembly. However, premade models can be more expensive than building your own. If you’re handy and have some carpentry experience, you may want to take on the challenge of making your own Murphy bed. Pine is a good option for material, as it’s relatively inexpensive and easy to work with.
