Murphy Bed Mechanism
Spring-Loaded Murphy Bed Mechanism | No Pistons No Wires | Built In-House
Our Murphy beds use a spring-loaded steel mechanism manufactured in-house by us for smooth, balanced operation and long-term reliability. It is part of the way we build Murphy beds with No Pistons No Wires.
This page gives a simple overview of why we use springs, how the system works, and why local manufacturing matters when you want a Murphy bed that is built to last.
Our spring-loaded steel mechanism is designed for smooth opening, balanced movement, and long-term serviceability.
Why we use springs instead of pistons
A Murphy bed should open smoothly, stay balanced, and remain serviceable over time. Springs give us an adjustable system without the common failure points found in piston-based designs.
- Designed to support real mattress weight for everyday use
- No hydraulics, no pressure loss, and no oil-related issues
- Adjustable tension over the life of the bed
- Smooth and controlled lifting motion
- Replacement parts remain available because we manufacture the system ourselves
Built locally in Hollywood, Florida
We manufacture our Murphy bed mechanisms in-house instead of relying on overseas hardware. That gives us more control over quality, consistency, and future service.
- Steel mechanism manufactured in-house by us
- Built for long-term daily use
- Consistent fit and performance from one project to the next
- Better support if service is ever needed later
How the mechanism works
The spring system counterbalances the weight of the bed so opening and closing feels controlled instead of heavy or awkward. Tension can also be adjusted if mattress weight changes over time.
That spring-loaded design is one of the core reasons our Murphy beds continue to operate smoothly without relying on pistons or wires.
