Bed legs
IKEA’s stylish bed legs help elevate the style of your bedroom along with elevating your bed!

Browse our selection to find sturdy metal and wood bed frame legs in an array of attractive finishes. We offer several different types of bed support legs to suit varying styles and designs.
Choosing the right bed legs to update your bedroom
Much like updating the knobs on your kitchen cabinets can provide a refreshed look for a modest price, investing in stylish bed support legs can do the same for your bedroom.
When deciding which bed frame legs to choose, there are just a few things to keep in mind. First, you’ll want to choose your preferred material and color. While other materials may occasionally be available, bed legs are most commonly constructed from wood or metal.
Both wood and metal provide sturdy durability and different color options, with metal leaning a bit more sleek and modern and wood being a classic choice that works with an array of design aesthetics.
Once you’ve determined your preferred material and color, you’ll want to focus on the size/height that best suits your needs.
Tall and short bed frame legs
IKEA offers both short and tall bed support legs to give you greater control over the look and functionality of your bed. While there is no right or wrong choice, different heights do come with different pros and cons that might make one better suited for you…
Short bed legs make things easier for pets
This can be a pro or con depending on how you feel about dogs in the bed! If you are open to sharing your bed with a furry friend, short bed legs make a great choice for smaller breeds or senior dogs that have difficulty climbing into a tall bed without help or stairs. On the flipside, if you want to discourage your pup from climbing in for a snooze, tall bed legs might be a better choice.
Tall bed legs make things easier for tall people
If you want to make the most of your underbed storage options, the additional height offered by taller bed support legs will give you the needed room to tuck away storage boxes, cases and bins. The additional height also allows for greater airflow, and provides a more open feel that can be especially welcome in a small or dark bedroom. On the flipside, if you want to prevent yourself from storing things under the bed—or giving your cat another place to hide— low profile bed legs could be a better choice.
