Some bed risers can add as much as 12 inches to the height of your bed. This much height can be helpful in small rooms with limited storage capacity, such as dorm rooms. 12-inch-tall bed risers are safe if the bed risers are broad enough to support the bed and if they are used under platform beds or adjustable beds.

Do bed risers have a weight limit?

How much weight can you put on bed risers? The maximum weight capacity varies based on the materials and design of the bed risers. Typical weight capacities range from 1,000 to 10,000 pounds. However, some can hold well over 30,000 pounds.

How high should your bed be off the floor?

The standard bed frame height should be knee-level, about 16-24 inches off the ground. This way both feet can be firmly on the ground and you can push off the bed with knees bent, making the average bed height around two feet.
