We don’t mess around when it comes to something as important as your sleep. That starts with getting the perfect mattress for your camper. A custom-made mattress is the best way to ensure that your sleeping space fits in perfectly with the layout of your camper, while also giving you a comfortable surface on which to rest.
But you may not know how to measure for a custom mattress. Before ordering one, here are some measurements you’ll need to take to ensure your best night of sleep lasts:
Measuring Corner Cuts
Your dreamy sleep journey starts with learning how to measure a custom mattress. Corner cuts are one of the first things to measure when getting a custom mattress for your camper. But pulling out your measuring tape isn’t as straightforward as it is in other situations. To get an exact measurement on how to measure for a custom mattress, here are a few tips:
- Measure all existing sides to get a start and end point for each leg of the mattress. For example, if you have a mattress with an angled corner at the bottom right, you’ll need to measure the distance from the top right corner of the mattress down to where the angle starts. Then measure from the bottom left over to where the angle starts. This will give you 2 points of measurements needed to create that angled corner description, in addition to the overall width and length. Creating a quick drawing with all noted measurements can help to make sure everything is correct.
- Measuring the soft and rounded edges of a mattress can be difficult so it can be easier to measure the existing space that the mattress will sit in instead. When you have a “wall to wall” measurement, most people will make the mattress 1″ smaller than that space which will leave about a half inch of wiggle room around the edges for sheets and other bedding.
- Round your measurements to the nearest 1/2 inch. Mattresses are generally soft and forgiving and will not be made to fractional sizes like 1/4 or 5/8, etc.
- Double check and then double check again! Since this is a custom size, you’ll want to be 100% sure it’s correct. Some people find it helpful to make a sample template out of cloth or cardboard to set in place to make sure it fits correctly before ordering their custom mattress with the custom shape and size.
Measuring Height
Your mattress doesn’t just need to fit inside your camper perfectly—it also needs to be comfortable and provide enough support. That’s why getting the perfect height is key in determining how to measure a custom mattress. When measuring, make sure to:
- Measure where you’d like the top of your mattress to be—this could mean measuring from the floor or from a surface you’d be placing your mattress on. For example, if you plan on placing your mattress on a set of drawers, measure from the top of those to ensure the perfect fit.
- Factor in any additional height that comes with certain mattresses. For example, a pillow top mattress tends to have an extra layer on top which will increase the height, while most memory foam mattresses will be pretty close to the exact thickness.
- Consider what is most important to you. Comfort or convenience. Some spaces will have limitations on thickness in order to fit the space correctly. Other situations could make it difficult to get in and out of bed with a thicker mattress. A thinner mattress will come with a degree of sacrifice in comfort so it’s important to identify which thickness will satisfy both needs, comfort and convenience.
