Bedding Designed for Electric Adjustable Beds
An adjustable bed bends and changes position throughout the night. This movement can cause ordinary bedding to pull away from the mattress, ride up at the corners or gather beneath the sleeper.
Adjustable-bed bedding is designed to move more comfortably with the mattress. Deeper fitted corners, additional tuck-under fabric and elastic around the full hem help keep the bottom sheet smooth and secure as the head or foot of the bed is raised.
Victoria Linen makes adjustable bedding for domestic electric beds, mobility beds, split adjustable beds, profiling beds and mattresses with unusual dimensions.

Adjustable Bed Fitted Sheets
Our adjustable bed fitted sheets are made with extra-deep corners and an elasticated hem that runs around the entire sheet.
This provides a more secure fit than a shallow standard sheet and helps reduce slipping when the mattress changes position. Many of our fitted sheets can be ordered in different mattress depths, making them suitable for both standard adjustable mattresses and beds fitted with a mattress topper.
Choose from practical easy-care poly cotton, crisp cotton percale, smooth cotton sateen, bamboo, warm brushed cotton and premium 1000 thread count cotton.
Semi-Fitted Top Sheets
A conventional flat top sheet can come untucked when an adjustable bed is raised. Our semi-fitted top sheets remain open at the head end like a traditional flat sheet but have fitted corners and elastic around the foot of the mattress.
This helps hold the lower part of the top sheet in place while leaving the upper section loose and comfortable to sleep beneath.
Adjustable Bed Mattress Protectors
A correctly sized mattress protector helps guard against perspiration, spills, stains and everyday wear without preventing the bed from changing position.
Choose from soft quilted protection or a breathable waterproof protector. Measure the mattress carefully and select a protector that fits without being excessively tight.
Adjustable Bed Skirts and Valances
A normal platform valance sheet sits between the mattress and bed base, which means it may interfere with the moving sections of an adjustable bed.
Our adjustable bed skirts attach directly to the side of the bed base using Velcro. This gives the bed a neat, finished appearance without placing material beneath the moving mattress.
Shop Adjustable Bedding by Mattress Size
Adjustable beds are available in many more sizes than conventional beds. Common options include narrow singles, small singles, long singles, large singles, small doubles and split beds made from two separate mattresses.
Visit our adjustable bedding by bed size page to shop:
- 2ft 3in adjustable-bed bedding
- 2ft 6in adjustable-bed bedding
- 3ft adjustable-bed bedding
- 3ft 6in adjustable-bed bedding
- 4ft adjustable-bed bedding

- Split king adjustable-bed bedding
Bed-size names are not always reliable, so check the mattress width and length before ordering. Two beds described as a single adjustable bed may use different mattress lengths.
Domestic Adjustable Beds and Profiling Beds
Domestic adjustable beds and profiling beds both allow sections of the mattress to be raised and lowered, but they are often purchased for different reasons.
Domestic electric beds from brands such as Adjustamatic, Oak Tree Mobility and Theraposture are generally chosen for comfort, lifestyle or mobility support.
Profiling beds are more commonly used for homecare, nursing or medical support. They may also be described as care beds, home hospital beds or hospital-style beds.
If you are buying for a homecare, nursing or hospital-style bed, visit our profiling bed bedding department. This section brings together suitable fitted sheets, semi-fitted top sheets and mattress protection for profiling-bed mattresses.
Bedding for Split Adjustable Beds
A split adjustable bed normally has two separate mattresses placed side by side. Each mattress can move independently, allowing both sleepers to choose a different sleeping position.
Most split beds require:
- Two separate fitted sheets
- Two individual mattress protectors
- Either one large duvet or two separate duvets
- Separate semi-fitted top sheets where required
Using individual fitted sheets allows each mattress to move without pulling the bedding away from the other side.
How to Measure Your Adjustable-Bed Mattress
For the best fit, measure the mattress itself rather than the bed frame or upholstered base.
- Place the mattress in a flat position.
- Measure the width from side to side.
- Measure the length from the head to the foot of the mattress.
- Measure the depth from the top sleeping surface to the bottom edge.
- Include the depth of any topper that will sit beneath the fitted sheet.
- Measure both mattresses separately if you have a split adjustable bed.
A fitted sheet needs enough depth to cover the side of the mattress and tuck securely underneath. A sheet that is too shallow may pull away when the bed moves, while one that is much too deep may crease or bunch.
Adjustable Bedding for Leading Bed Brands
We manufacture bedding by mattress measurements, rather than relying only on a bed brand or model name. This means our sheets can be suitable for many electric and mobility-bed manufacturers.
We regularly make bedding for beds from brands including:
- Adjustamatic
- Oak Tree Mobility
- Theraposture
- Rotoflex
- Willowbrook
- Opera
- MiBed
- Craftmatic
For Theraposture and Rotoflex products, visit our dedicated Theraposture bedding section.
Because mattress dimensions can vary between models from the same manufacturer, measuring the mattress is still the most reliable way to order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do adjustable beds need special fitted sheets?
Adjustable beds generally benefit from fitted sheets with deeper corners and elastic around the full hem. These features help the sheet remain secure when the mattress bends or changes position.
Can I use a normal fitted sheet on an adjustable bed?
A normal fitted sheet may work if it matches the exact mattress dimensions and has sufficient depth. However, shallow sheets or sheets with weak corner elastic are more likely to pull loose as the bed moves.
What size sheet do I need for an adjustable bed?
Measure the width, length and depth of the mattress while it is lying flat. Adjustable-bed sizes vary between brands, so do not rely only on terms such as single, double or king.
Do I need two sheets for a split adjustable bed?
Yes. A split adjustable bed normally requires one fitted sheet for each mattress. This allows both sides to move independently.
What is a semi-fitted top sheet?
A semi-fitted top sheet is open at the head end but has fitted corners and elastic around the foot of the mattress. This helps prevent the sheet from coming untucked when the bed is raised.
Can I use a mattress protector on an adjustable bed?
Yes, provided the protector matches the mattress dimensions and has enough flexibility to move with the bed. Specialist pressure-relieving mattresses may have specific bedding requirements, so check the mattress manufacturer’s instructions.
Is a profiling bed the same as an adjustable bed?
Both types allow parts of the mattress to be raised and lowered. Domestic adjustable beds are usually designed for comfort and mobility, while profiling beds are more commonly associated with homecare, nursing and medical support.
Can you make sheets for an unusual adjustable-bed size?
Yes. Victoria Linen specialises in non-standard bedding and can manufacture fitted sheets and other products to your required mattress width, length and depth.
