Murphy beds & wall bed systems in Fairfax, Virginia
A Murphy bed — also called a wall bed or folding bed — is a space-saving solution that does not sacrifice style or comfort. Nova Custom Closet builds wall bed systems in Twin, Double and Queen that fold into a cabinet when you do not need the bed, and sleep on a standard mattress up to 10 inches thick when you do.
These systems can be incorporated into just about any room in a Northern Virginia home. Add closet space with wardrobes on either side, or integrate the wall bed into a home office, playroom or basement so the room can function as a bedroom overnight. Owning a wall bed is a strong call when you need more floor: our systems can free about 7 feet of space when the bed is up.
Whether you need a guest bedroom for family and friends or a single room with two jobs, a wall bed built in our Chantilly shop is a comfortable, attractive solution. Same ¾-inch furniture-grade TFL as our custom closets, designed in 3D, installed by our crew across VA, MD and D.C.
A guest room that is not empty all week
Wall bed systems are perfect when you need the floor back in the morning. The bed folds into the wall or a cabinet; the room becomes an office, a playroom or a sitting room again. At night it is a real bed — a standard mattress, not a sofa that pretends.
Guest bedrooms that sit unused six days a week are the usual brief in Fairfax townhomes and D.C. condos. A Murphy bed lets that room earn its square footage. When the bed is up, you gain roughly 7 feet of floor. When it is down, guests sleep on the mattress size you chose: Twin, Double or Queen, up to 10 inches thick.
Twin, Double and Queen wall beds; mattresses up to 10 inches.
Folds into a cabinet so the room works as something else by day.
About 7 feet of floor back when the bed is stored.
Wardrobes, desks and a wall bed on the same run
A wall bed can stand alone, or it can be customized with storage to suit the room. Add closet space by including wardrobes on either side. Our designers integrate the system into a home office, playroom or basement so those spaces function as bedrooms without looking like a dorm.
A desk that sits in front of a closed bed, shelves for the things the guest room still needs, and the same finish as the office cabinets next door — that is what makes the room read as furniture, not a fold-down bolted to a wall. Hardware and hanging from the closet accessories catalog can sit in the side cabinets.
Side wardrobes for hanging, drawers and guest storage.
Office or playroom by day: a desk and shelves that stay when the bed is down.
Same ¾-inch TFL and finish library as the rest of the house.
Built in Chantilly, sized to the wall you have
We do not drop a catalog Murphy bed into a leftover alcove. The cabinet is built to the wall, the ceiling and the mattress you choose. Twin, Double or Queen; stand-alone or a full run with wardrobes. You see a 3D model before the Chantilly shop cuts a panel.

What DMV clients say about Nova built-ins
Was referred by a friend of mine to use Nova Closet and it was the best $2000 I have ever spent! I loved how I could see the designs and pricing during the first virtual meeting. My space is completely transformed.

Murphy bed and wall bed questions — sizes, comfort, space, install
