Spring Air

Although they've become quite rare, we do offer simple metal bed frames that support standard box springs.

Bed frames are stocked in our Calgary & Edmonton warehouses and typically range in price from under $100 to as much as $250, depending on quality and required size.

For our customers in our local Calgary & Edmonton delivery areas, we'll assemble your bed frame at no extra cost when it's delivered with your new mattress.

Our metal bedframes are made in Canada by Beaudoin.

• Ironically, the vast majority of box springs have no springs and are simply a rigid platform
• Typically between 5-9" tall and designed to be supported by a bed frame. The common types of bed frames that support a box spring include traditional metal frames with legs or wheels, or headboards and footboards with an integrated frame
• Some box springs offer legs, which removes the need for a bed frame to support the box spring. Our Harrison Spinks True Edge Foundation is one such example. The Harrison Spinks foundation is also a functional box spring with thousands of micro pocket coils

Our 3,000-word in-depth Spring Mattress Buying Guide is a must-read, even if you're planning to buy a mattress without springs. The guide covers the history of coils in mattresses, the various types of springs, and their benefits and drawbacks. You'll learn about the different types of upholstery found in spring mattresses, coil counts, and much more.

This guide also discusses the Elastic Bed Principle, part of our philosophy for crafting the best mattress and a critical factor in achieving the best night's rest.
