1000N Gas Strut Pair for Ottoman & Storage Beds
✓ IN STOCK - SHIPS TODAY
Note: This product includes 2 gas struts only. Hinge mechanisms are not included.
Product Overview
This product consists of two matched 1000N gas struts, designed to deliver enhanced lifting assistance for heavier ottoman and storage bed systems. When installed as a pair, they help raise and hold larger bed bases securely, offering stable and controlled operation during everyday use.
Typical supported load (pair):
Approximately 80–100 kg, based on the combined weight of the bed base and mattress.
Recommended Applications
- Large double ottoman beds
- Queen-size storage beds
- Bed frames fitted with heavier or thicker mattresses
These gas struts provide strong assisted lifting and controlled movement. They are not intended to carry the full load without support from the bed frame.
Usage Guidance
- Gas struts must always be installed in pairs
- The quoted force rating applies to both struts working together
- Final performance depends on hinge position, opening angle and frame geometry
🔧 Important Information
- Weight figures are indicative guidance only
- Bed construction and fixing points directly influence lifting behaviour
- If your bed setup is close to the maximum load range, a higher force option may offer improved stability
Key Features
- Increased lifting assistance for heavier bed systems
- Smooth and predictable opening action
- Helps keep the bed base safely raised while accessing storage
- Suitable for reinforced domestic ottoman bed frames

🧮 Need Help Choosing the Right Force?
Selecting the correct gas strut strength improves safety and long-term performance. Before ordering, consider:
- Mattress weight
- Bed base weight
- Opening angle of the bed
Correct force selection prevents beds that are difficult to lift or open too aggressively.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Do these fit all ottoman beds?
They are suitable for many large double and queen size storage beds. Always confirm your existing strut length and force rating before purchase.
Is 1000N per strut?
No. 1000N refers to the combined force of the pair, not individual struts.
Can one strut be used on its own?
No. For balance and safety, gas struts must always be fitted as a matched pair.
What if I order the wrong size?
Unused items can be returned within 30 days.
