Product Overview
This matched pair of 1100N gas struts is engineered for the most demanding ottoman and storage bed applications. Where standard force ratings fall short, these high-output struts provide the extra power needed to lift and hold heavier bed systems with confidence and control.
Typical supported load (pair):
Approximately 90–110 kg, based on the combined weight of the mattress and bed base.
Recommended Applications
- Super king-size ottoman beds
- King-size storage beds with heavy mattresses
- Reinforced divan bed frames carrying extra load
- Bed platforms with dense memory foam or hybrid mattresses
These struts are built to handle high-load lifting scenarios. They must be installed as a matched pair and work alongside the bed frame structure.
Usage Guidance
- Install gas struts as a matched pair at all times
- The 1100N figure represents the total combined output of both struts
- Actual lift performance varies with hinge geometry, bracket position and opening angle
🔧 Important Information
- Supported load figures are indicative and based on typical bed configurations
- Frame design, fixing point location and mattress type all affect real-world performance
- If your setup regularly operates near the top of the load range, ensure all mounting hardware is rated accordingly
Key Features
- Maximum-output lifting support for the heaviest domestic bed systems
- Controlled, progressive extension with no sudden or jerky movement
- Holds the bed base securely in the open position under high load
- Built for reinforced ottoman and platform bed frames
🧮 Need Help Choosing the Right Force?
Selecting the right force rating is critical for both safety and ease of use. When deciding, consider:
- The total weight of your mattress
- The weight of the bed base and storage platform
- The full opening angle of your bed
An accurately matched force rating ensures smooth, effortless lifting without the risk of the bed snapping open or being too heavy to raise.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Customer Reviews
"We have a super king with a very heavy mattress and nothing else was strong enough. These hold it perfectly — no sagging, no creaking."

— Amanda S., Leicester
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Are these suitable for super king beds?
Yes. The 1100N pair is designed for the heaviest domestic ottoman beds, including super king frames with dense or heavy mattresses. Always check your existing strut measurements before ordering.
Is 1100N the output of each individual strut?
No. 1100N is the total combined force of both struts operating together as a pair.
Can I fit just one strut to save money?
No. Fitting a single strut creates an unbalanced load and poses a safety risk. Always install as a matched pair.
