Whats Different?
VS
Metal
Compared to wood frames, steel frames have a higher resistance to degradation. For example, if you compare a wooden floor and steel floor, you are likely to notice warping on the wooden floor as the floor dries.
The same applies to pests, such as termites. Pests can burrow into timber but not into steel. Since the termite infestations are highly unlikely on steel frames, the cost of treating the frames is significantly lower.
Also, in case a fire destroys your home, the steel frame will be left standing. However, the fire will destroy the wooden frames.
Durability
Although both wood and steel frames can withstand years of use, steel is the more durable material. Wood is weaker around the joints and may not hold as much weight. Steel, on the other hand, can support over a thousand pounds. When shopping for chairs, pay attention to the gauge of the steel. Some manufacturers may use weaker steel that won’t hold up as well.
If you opt for a steel frame, also be sure that you are receiving a quality powder coat finish. Like a fine finish on a quality automobile, it is durable and will seal the steel for a lifetime of low-maintenance use.
Environmentally Responsible
While steel is not the most environmentally-friendly building materials, it has qualities that make it environmentally responsible. For example, you can recycle steel which means it has a longer life cycle. In fact, steel is arguably the most recycled material worldwide.
Also, using steel frames means less deforestation since timber is harvested from forests. The less the need for timber, the less the need to destroy forests. Unlike wood frames, steel frames are manufactured with precision thus less wastage.
Wood, on the other hand, has natural imperfections which makes part of it unusable
Sustainability
Although wood is a renewable energy source, steel is often used more sustainably. Many steel products are made with up to 90% recycled steel, while wooden products often end up discarded or burned.
Steel Is Lighter
When you compare a steel frame vs. wood frame, you will be surprised to note the steel frame is lighter. This is attributed to the design of the frames. You see the design of a something like a steel l-beam makes it lighter than a similar wood beam design. The lighter weight comes in handy as it reduces shipping and building costs.

Wide All-Metal Frame
Compared to our competitors our frames are Thicc boy. We pride ourselves on having evenly distributed metal frames.
Not So Wide Metal Frame
Compared to our competitor our frames are like an Un-muscular Scrawny boy. We don’t really pride ourselves on having uneven metal frames. We are sorry.
Sorry it just makes us sad. Why use wood when you can have and all overlaid foam base with an amazing all metal structure frame. Like us……seriously why tho?
They use wood...Why?
Do You even Lift?!
You could have your whole family watch Netflix with you on movie night! Think not? No worries, our beds can hold up to 1,000lbs
