Quick answer: A made to order bed frame is built after you order it, to your exact mattress size, headboard height, fabric and finish. At Candace & Basil, every custom bed frame is handcrafted in-house from solid maple hardwood, offered from Twin to Alaskan King with headboards from 42" to 82", and delivered across Miami or shipped across the contiguous USA.

What is the difference between a custom bed frame and a store-bought one?
A store-bought bed frame is designed once and mass-produced for an average bedroom. A custom bed frame starts with your room. You choose the mattress size, the headboard height, the fabric and the finish, and the frame is built to those specifications after you order.
That matters in Miami, where bedrooms vary widely. A Brickell condo with lower ceilings suits a 42" or 52" headboard, while a Coral Gables primary suite can carry a dramatic 82" one. A guest room that has to fit a Twin XL along one wall needs an exact width, not a close-enough one.
What sizes can a custom-size bed frame be made in?
Our made to order program covers every standard size and the oversized formats that are hard to find in retail stores:
| Bed size | Best for | Shop |
|---|---|---|
| Twin / Twin XL | Kids' rooms, guest rooms, taller teens | Twin XL beds |
| Double (Full) | Smaller guest rooms and studios | Double beds |
| Queen | Most Miami condos and primary bedrooms | Queen beds |
| King / California King | Primary suites, couples who want space | King beds |
| Florida, Texas, Alberta & Alaskan King | Families who co-sleep, very tall sleepers | Alaskan King beds |
If the size you need isn't listed, we can build to your measurements.
How are handmade bed frames built?
Every Candace & Basil bed frame is bench-made, meaning one team builds it by hand from start to finish rather than on an assembly line. Frames use solid maple hardwood, high-density foam in upholstered headboards and reinforced support for the mattress. There is no flat-pack assembly and no particleboard.
Our furniture is handcrafted in-house in Toronto, Canada, and delivered to Miami homes through our local showroom. You can read more in our guide to North American-made bed frames.
