how wide is a double bed

A standard double bed (also called a full) is about 54 inches (137 cm) wide.

Quick Scoop

• Typical “double” width: about 54 in / 4 ft 6 in / 137 cm.

• Length is usually 75 in (190 cm), but you asked only about width.

• In many stores, “double” and “full” mean the same size.

Variations you might see

• Some regional “double” styles (like certain European or Japanese sizes) can be a bit wider or narrower, roughly 140–152 cm wide.

• Product pages or labels will sometimes list 53 in instead of 54 in, but they’re functionally the same size.

Simple way to remember it

If the label says “double” or “full,” assume around 54 inches (137 cm) wide unless the store specifies a special regional size.
