turnwood bedroom furniture have a range of flat and flexi systems for their slat beds.

the flexi slat systems come in single or twin and can be combined to make a single/twin system on one bed.

flat slat system

turnwood flat slat beds provide strength and durability and are one of our most popular systems. our slats are produced from chemical-free, kiln dried new zealand pine. featured in this picture is the queen size mckenzie base. the flat slat offers an alternative to the single and twin flexi slat systems.

twin flexi slat system

this is great for people who want extra comfort from their bed. each slat end fits snugly into the rubber shoes at the end of the slat (the black part) which creates stability and comfort. the twin flexi system is available in queen, king and super king, and of course the tension kits can be applied for even more support where you need it.

single flexi slat system

this system has 52mm corrugated slats on each side of the bed and each slat is made of six laminates to give greater strength. each slat end fits snugly into the rubber shoe which helps to create stability. the single flexi system is available in all sizes and of course the tension kits can be applied as you can see pictured to the right. this is a very popular seller!

we can also do a combination of single and flexi slats if you prefer.

tension kits

individualise your slat bed to you own unique body needs, by purchasing a tension kit alongside our flexi slat systems. the tension kit allows you to change the tension on individual slats as you like. if you need more support, simply slide out for a firmer support, if you prefer a more flexible slat, slide the tension kit in. this allows you to customise each individual slat to your own personal needs. the kits consist of two slats on top of each other and come in a set of five slats with ten sliders for single flexi system and eight slats with sixteen sliders for the twin flexi system.

here is a snapshot of how slat systems can benefit your body health and your bedroom health:

health benefits

turnwood flexi slat bed bases are designed to assist with holding your body's natural shape while sleeping, which provides you with the right amount of support and helps keep your spine in a natural position. this helps to alleviate aches and rid your body of upright tension.

increased comfort

the right stability is the key to your comfort and by incorporating a tension kit to your flexi slat system, you can adjust each base to give you a custom setting that fits you individually.

improved ventilation

slat bases allow air to pass freely beneath your bed, meaning you avoid moisture build up and this helps keep your mattress fresher for longer.

minimal dust accumulation

dust finds it difficult to settle on or under a well-ventilated slat system, making turnwood slat beds ideal for asthmatics and allergy sufferers.

appearance

curved, lacquered sprung slats are aesthetically pleasing and are easy to clean.

natural materials

our flexi slat systems are produced from beech from sustainable european forests, and all turnwood bed frames are made in new zealand with rimu or pine.
