Hi all,
I had a search here but to no avail.
My next project at home is to build a wall bed/cupboards for SWMBO’s office/guest room.
I have found wall bed hinges and full kits online but none quite fit my requirements.
They’re usually based on a plain swivel hinge rotating about one axis. I think I need some kind of linkage.
I’ve also seen rock and roll hinges and these are closer but not quite there.
I’m quite short on space and would like the head of the mattress to be against the wall when folded down.
See pic:
Pivot A would obviously make the bed hit the wall.
Pivot B would work but leave either a very low bed or a very tall cupboard.
I’m thinking something like these hinges but bigger and for use upside down:
Any suggestions?
