Click-Clack Folding Sofa Bed

This sofa bed changes between sitting and sleeping through a click-clack action. Its conversion differs from a pull-out bed hidden inside a conventional sofa, so the room should be planned around the movement of the seat and back.

Design, proportions and details

The sleeping surface measures 135 x 190 cm and uses a 15 cm mattress over a slatted base. Compare that mattress size with your bedding, and check the 212 cm closed width before choosing a place along a wall.

Because the bed opens across the sofa’s width, the relationship between the back and nearby walls matters. Allow the clearance required to operate the mechanism, and consider where cushions and bedding will go during the change from sofa to bed.

The 135 cm mattress width describes the open sleeping surface. It should be considered independently from the closed sofa’s 212 cm external width and the space required behind its moving back.

This click-clack folding sofa bed uses a transverse opening system: the seat and backrest flatten to create the sleeping surface, so the bed develops sideways rather than projecting as far into the room as a conventional front-opening mechanism.

Under the mattress is a wooden slatted base, while the 15 cm polyurethane foam mattress provides a more substantial sleeping layer than many basic click-clack designs.

This model suits guest rooms and living areas where floor depth is limited when the bed is open. The slatted base and transverse layout give it a more structured feel than a simple futon-style fold-down sofa.
