The Imperial Zip and Link Bed
Classic elegance meets exceptional versatility with the Imperial Zip & Link Bed, a beautifully upholstered bed designed to provide flexible sleeping arrangements without compromising on style.
The Imperial is defined by its impressive tall, deep buttoned upholstered headboard, creating a luxurious statement inspired by timeless bedroom design. The carefully detailed buttoning adds depth and character to the upholstery, making the Imperial an elegant centrepiece for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Thanks to its practical zip and link design, the two individual beds can be securely joined together to create one larger sleeping space or separated whenever two individual beds are required.
One Bed, Two Flexible Sleeping Arrangements
The Imperial gives you the flexibility to adapt your bedroom whenever your requirements change.
Keep both beds connected to create one larger sleeping area, or separate them to provide two individual beds.
This makes the Imperial an excellent choice for guest bedrooms, hotels, holiday lets, serviced apartments and flexible sleeping spaces, where different guests may require different bed configurations.
Luxury Deep-Buttoned Headboard
The centrepiece of the Imperial is its striking deep-buttoned upholstered headboard.
Traditional button detailing creates a beautifully textured appearance, while the tall headboard adds height and presence to the room.
The result is a sophisticated upholstered zip and link bed that combines classic detailing with the flexibility required for modern living.
Optional Under-Bed Drawer Storage
Make better use of your bedroom space with optional built-in drawer storage.
The Imperial can be configured with a choice of practical drawer layouts, providing convenient additional storage for bedding, clothing, towels and other bedroom essentials.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Our beds are manufactured following your order according to the options available for your chosen design.

Many SOVO beds are available in a choice of fabrics and colours. Available options are displayed on the individual product page.
We make every reasonable effort to represent our fabrics accurately, but colours can vary depending on your screen, brightness settings, photography and room lighting. Upholstery fabrics can also appear lighter or darker depending on the direction of the pile. Where fabric samples are available, we recommend viewing one before ordering if precise colour matching is important.

Bed Sizes
Typical UK mattress dimensions are:
- Single – 90 × 190cm
- Small Double – 120 × 190cm
- Double – 135 × 190cm
- King – 150 × 200cm
- Super King – 180 × 200cm
These are mattress dimensions. The actual bed frame will usually be larger. Always check the dimensions on the individual product page.
A standard UK Double mattress measures approximately 135 × 190cm, whereas a King measures approximately 150 × 200cm. A King therefore gives you additional width and length.
Yes, provided your mattress is the correct size and suitable for the bed you’ve selected.
Choosing Your Bed
A divan generally consists of an upholstered base supporting the mattress and can be a practical choice where storage and efficient use of space are important. An upholstered bed frame usually has upholstered side rails and a more prominent headboard, giving it a more design led appearance.
An ottoman bed uses the area underneath the mattress platform as hidden storage. The platform lifts with the assistance of a lifting mechanism, providing access to the storage compartment underneath.
A solid platform ottoman divan provides the mattress with a continuous supporting platform.A gas lift bedframe has a slatted base and supports the mattress using individual slats and can provide increased airflow around the mattress. The construction can also affect how the mattress feels, so check the individual product specification.
If you want maximum hidden storage, an ottoman is usually the better choice. If you want quick access to smaller compartments, drawers may be more convenient. Remember that drawers require sufficient space alongside the bed to open.
Ottoman beds generally use gas assisted lifting mechanisms designed to make opening and closing the storage platform easier. Always follow the operating and safety instructions supplied with your bed.
Mattresses
Unless specifically ordered separately or as an add on but if the bed itself is purchased then a mattress is not included
There’s no single firmness that’s right for everybody. Body weight, sleeping position, existing mattress and personal preference can all influence how a mattress feels. See our Mattress Buying Guide for more information.
No. Spring count is only one part of mattress construction. Spring design, comfort layers, fillings and overall construction are also important.
Assembly
Many of our beds require assembly. You can choose to assemble the bed yourself or select our optional assembly service where available.
Our assembly service includes taking the bed to the selected room and assembling the new bed, subject to safe and suitable access. Unless expressly stated otherwise, it does not include dismantling existing furniture, disposing of an old bed or mattress, moving existing furniture or removing packaging. Please ensure the room and assembly area are clear before our team arrives.
