I built two new beds in my old caravan during the renovation, one which was a single and the other a double bed. The way i built them was so quick and easy as well as being light weight, strong and inexpensive!
I used a 20mm aluminium box section from Ulrich Aluminium that is simple to cut and join with plastic joining pieces. That was what i used for the bases anyway. For the bed frame with slats i actually just jumped on Gumtree & Facebook Market Place and found beds people were giving away cheap or free. I hinged those tops to the frames I made, added some gas struts and bobs your uncle!
Anyway I hope this one helps you out and gives you some ideas on how to build your bed frames. Thanks for watching and please don't forget to Like, Subscribe and smash that Bell icon!

Thanks mate, yeah its a pretty quick and easy way to build a bed frame. The box section is 25mm x 25mm and 1.5mm thick. Super light and strong! Also, you'll find all the joiners at Ulrich too! Good luck!

Great work mate. How do you find best place to use screws? I mean can I just screw anywhere on wall or floor? Also, what screws, bolts are best?
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 5 месяцев назад
Cheers mate! I used stainless bolts through the walls then I just used screws into the floor. Hope that helps ✌🏻

@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 2 месяца назад
The toilet does live in that hatch and it’s really only for night time no.1s Works well and doesn’t smell at all.

smart work mate, thanks for sharing. For the Double/queen bed size, how much of the aluminium box and joners should I buy? do you remember how many of them you used for yours? cheers
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 7 месяцев назад
Cheers mate! Let me measure/ add it up and I’ll get back to you on this one ☝🏻
@amenyeeagel7936
@amenyeeagel7936 7 месяцев назад
Cheers, I will be waiting... I'm gonna have a double size bed frame🙏
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 7 месяцев назад
So mine is a queen bed and in total I used 20 joiners of various types and with a rough measure I used about 25 meters of aluminium length. Hope that helps and it works out okay for you ✌🏻

Nice work. What size are the gas struts you used on the main bed?
@lisabenning2515
@lisabenning2515 Год назад
I'm guessing this might not work on a sandwich panel van - bolting it to the sides. Or what do you think?
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak Год назад
I’m not 100 percent sure sorry. I’d be guessing there’d be some alternative way you could fix it in though 🤔

Looking to do this did you bolt it through to the outside of of the van
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 8 месяцев назад
Yeah I did. I bolted it through the frame before I resheeted the outside.

Nice Job on the beds. What size tyres and rims do you have on the caravan
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 3 года назад
Thanks mate! The rims are 16 inch and the tyres are 265/70

Hi do you think you could use the box section and joiners to make bunk beds?
@TheBeatenTrak
@TheBeatenTrak 2 года назад
Hi Tammy, yep I don't see why not. It's pretty strong especially when you fix it into the walls. We've used ours quite a few times now and had no issues at all.
