The storage bed lift up hinges manufactured and supplied by BLS Hardware are pneumatic gas-spring assisted lifting mechanisms designed for opening and supporting mattress platforms on Ottoman storage beds, high-box beds, and modular daybeds. BLS Hardware supplies this functional bedroom hardware directly to upholstered bed manufacturers, furniture factories, hardware distributors, and OEM brands.
Product Overview
This heavy-duty mechanism allows end-users to effortlessly elevate heavy mattress frames to access under-bed storage cavities. Engineered with an industrial gas spring cylinder linked to a scissor-action steel frame, the hardware counterbalances mattress weight, smoothly holds the bed platform open at an angle, and dampens downward closing travel.
Constructed with cold-rolled carbon steel angle rails, each set of storage bed lift up hinges provides stable vertical elevation and prevents platform racking across wide Queen and King bed bases.
Key Mechanical Features
- Pneumatic Gas Strut Counterbalance: High-pressure gas cylinders provide controlled lifting force (available in 600N, 800N, 1100N, and 1500N ratings) to support diverse mattress densities.
- Optimized Scissor Elevation Geometry: Lifts the mattress platform upward and forward away from the headboard, providing generous access clearance to under-bed storage boxes.
- Elongated Slotted Mounting Rails: Pre-punched slotted channels along the base and upper rails accommodate fast screw alignment and tolerance compensation during frame assembly.
- Durable Electrophoretic Matte Black Finish: High-adhesion electro-deposition coating protects the steel angle brackets and linkages against indoor humidity and oxidation.
- Secure Ball-Stud Retention Clips: Precision-machined ball joints allow straightforward cylinder snapping while ensuring captive retention during dynamic cycling.
- Symmetrical Paired Configuration: Supplied in matched Left (L) and Right (R) sets to balance pneumatic lifting torque across both sides of the wooden or metal bed frame.

Integrated Furniture Hardware Systems (Mechanical Topology)
In modern upholstery and convertible furniture manufacturing, motion mechanisms operate within an integrated hardware system. These storage bed lift up hinges coordinate directly with complementary structural hardware manufactured by BLS Hardware:
- Convertible Seating Platforms: Operates alongside heavy-duty sofa bed hardware and roll-out trundle frames to maximize storage efficiency in compact residential living spaces.
- Motion & Reclining Seating: Complements our catalog of recliner mechanisms across multifunctional bedroom suites and cinema lounge seating systems.
- Chassis Elevation & Ground Support: Matches structural clearances provided by our commercial metal furniture legs, ensuring balanced ground support and consistent plinth heights.
Furniture Applications
These pneumatic lift mechanisms are engineered for structural integration in residential and contract sleeping systems, including:
- Ottoman storage beds with end-opening or side-opening platform bases
- High-box platform beds with integrated under-mattress storage compartments
- Custom RV camper sleeping platforms and marine berth storage bunks
- Heavy-duty space-saving daybeds and studio apartment Murphy bed frames
Installation Guidelines for Assembly Lines
When installing these storage bed lift up hinges on bed manufacturing lines, align the lower slotted angle rail flush against the inner wooden plinth of the storage box.
Fasten the rail using appropriate structural wood screws or M8 bolts through the pre-drilled slots, ensuring both left and right rails are aligned at identical elevations.
Attach the upper lifting rail securely to the underside of the tubular steel or slatted timber mattress platform before snapping the gas strut socket heads onto the ball-stud pivots.

- Custom rail lengths (e.g., 600mm, 900mm, 1200mm, or 1500mm) for different bed mattress sizes
- Tailored gas cylinder force ratings (from 400N to 1800N) calibrated to specific mattress weights
- Custom mounting slot configurations to match automated CNC drill patterns
- Export packaging in bulk master cartons or container-load pallet configurations
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the function of storage bed lift up hinges?
These mechanisms provide gas-spring assisted lifting for heavy mattress platforms on Ottoman beds, allowing users to effortlessly open, hold, and close under-bed storage compartments.
How do I select the correct gas spring Newton rating?
The required Newton rating depends on total mattress and platform frame weight. Typical Queen and King mattresses use 800N to 1100N struts, while heavier latex or memory foam setups may require 1500N cylinders.
Are these hinges sold in symmetrical Left and Right pairs?
Yes. BLS Hardware produces and supplies these hinges in symmetrical Left and Right pairs to ensure balanced pneumatic lift force across both sides of the bed frame.
What details are required to request an OEM quotation?
Buyers should specify target order quantities, intended rail lengths, desired gas strut Newton ratings, and any specific mounting hole dimensions required for their bed manufacturing lines.
