Measure the usable floor, platform or frame in centimetres and compare it with the exact dimensions of the selected model.
Local mattress sizes vary by country and by maker, so compare the centimetre dimensions with the usable support area of your frame rather than relying on a size name.
Fitting a frame and choosing sheets
If you plan to use a bed frame built for a local mattress size, measure its inside dimensions and make sure the whole shikibuton is supported. Choose sheets and covers by the centimetre dimensions. Custom sizes are not available.
