A spring or piston lifting device can cost twice as much as making a Murphy bed. The hardware removes the work from opening and closing, but if you agree to lose some of the benefits to save money, Follow this link to know more details: CLICK HERE

Murphy Bed Ikea

As mentioned, I spaced the two wardrobes about 172cm apart. With the bedding and sliding doors installed this is a little bit tight. It’s still workable, but if I were doing it again it would be nice to have a bit more clearance so I would space them at 180cm, for a total overall width of 380cm.

Also, with the doors installed the weight causes the centre section to bow down a bit. The deflection is only a few mm, but it’s enough to throw the angle of the doors off. They stay on the tracks and move freely, but there’s a little gap at the bottom when they’re pushed together. This really isn’t a big deal, but the photo shows a stiffener that I added to the top section to lessen the bending. It is just one of the end cap channels that came with the sliding doors - I have two sets, but I only need one, so I cut down one of the spares and attached it.
