Ireland Storage Bed | Acme Furniture
The Ireland Storage Bed transforms your bedroom into an organized retreat with its 10 integrated storage drawers built directly into the platform frame. Crafted from solid pine and engineered wood with a rich espresso finish, this bed eliminates the need for separate dressers while maintaining a refined aesthetic.
We designed the Ireland with master bedrooms and compact spaces in mind, where floor space is precious but storage needs are substantial. The Euro slat system provides mattress support without requiring a box spring, while dovetail drawer construction ensures decades of daily use. Each drawer glides smoothly on ball-bearing tracks and features satin nickel pulls that complement both traditional and transitional décor.

Construction & Materials
We build the Ireland Storage Bed using solid pine for the frame and structural components, paired with durable engineered wood panels for the drawer boxes and headboard. This combination delivers the strength of hardwood where it matters most while keeping the bed accessible for real-world budgets.
The espresso finish is hand-applied in multiple coats, then sealed to resist everyday scratches and moisture. Each of the 10 storage drawers features dovetail joinery at the corners — the same technique fine furniture makers have used for centuries because it prevents drawer boxes from separating under repeated use.
Storage Configuration & Capacity
Drawer Layout
The Ireland bed organizes its 10 drawers in a symmetrical configuration: five drawers per side, stacked vertically along the length of the frame. In the Queen size, each drawer measures approximately 24 inches wide by 15 inches deep, offering roughly 2.5 cubic feet of storage per drawer.
This layout provides over 25 cubic feet of total storage capacity — equivalent to a standard six-drawer dresser. You can dedicate drawers to clothing, extra linens, seasonal items, or anything else that typically clutters bedroom closets and floor space.
Sizing & Mattress Compatibility
We offer the Ireland Storage Bed in two standard sizes: Queen (60″ W × 80″ L) and King (76″ W × 80″ L). Overall exterior dimensions including the storage drawers measure 68 inches wide for Queen and 84 inches wide for King, with a consistent length of 88 inches and height of 48 inches at the headboard.
The platform surface accommodates any standard mattress up to 14 inches thick. We’ve tested the Euro slat system with memory foam, hybrid, innerspring, and latex mattresses — all perform beautifully without a box spring. For optimal comfort, we recommend pairing the Ireland with a mattress between 10 and 12 inches thick.

Common Questions About the Ireland Storage Bed
Yes, each of the 10 drawers is equipped with ball-bearing glide systems that allow full extension for easy access to items stored at the back. The glides are rated for thousands of open-close cycles and support up to 40 pounds per drawer. We recommend keeping drawer weight reasonable and vacuuming the glide tracks quarterly for optimal performance.
The Ireland Storage Bed accommodates mattresses between 8 and 14 inches thick. We recommend a mattress in the 10 to 12-inch range for the best visual proportion and ease of bedding changes.
The Euro slat system supports memory foam, hybrid, innerspring, and latex mattresses equally well without requiring a box spring.
You should allow at least 24 inches of clearance on both the left and right sides of the bed for comfortable drawer access. The drawers extend from both sides in a five-drawer vertical configuration.
We also recommend leaving 3 inches behind the headboard to allow air circulation and prevent wall damage during assembly.
Two adults can typically assemble the Ireland bed in 90 minutes using the included tools and illustrated instructions. The drawer glides come pre-attached, and all components are clearly labeled.
No special carpentry skills are required. If you prefer professional installation, our white-glove assembly service is available for an additional fee at checkout.
The Ireland bed stands 48 inches tall at the headboard, so we recommend a ceiling height of at least 8 feet for comfortable assembly and bedding changes. The footboard measures just 14 inches high, creating a low-profile look that doesn’t overwhelm rooms with standard ceiling heights.
If your ceiling is lower than 8 feet, consider our Cork Platform Bed, which features a lower-profile design.
The Ireland Storage Bed provides over 25 cubic feet of total storage across its 10 drawers — roughly equivalent to a standard six-drawer dresser. Each drawer in the Queen size measures approximately 24 inches wide by 15 inches deep.
This capacity can accommodate an entire wardrobe of clothing, seasonal items, extra bedding, or a combination of household items you’d typically store in bedroom furniture.
The multi-coat espresso finish is sealed to resist everyday scratches, moisture, and minor impacts. We’ve tested it extensively with typical bedroom use, including drawer operation and bedding changes.
For long-term protection, clean the finish with a slightly damp microfiber cloth and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. The finish has maintained its appearance beautifully in our customers’ homes for years with this simple care routine.
