High-Low Beds

Discover Opera’s premium selection of high-low beds - hospital beds that raise and lower in height for enhanced comfort, accessibility, and support.

What is a high-low bed?

A high-low bed is a fully adjustable bed that moves up and down in height and offers head and foot adjustments. Sometimes referred to as hi-low beds or high-low hospital beds, these beds are especially beneficial for seniors or individuals recovering from surgery or living with chronic conditions.

High-low beds allow users to get in and out of bed more easily while also helping caregivers carry out daily tasks more safely. Due to their versatility and ease of use, they're commonly used in residential and care settings.

What are the benefits of a high-low bed?

When you buy a high-low bed from Opera Beds, caregivers and users get a range of advantages, including:

• Easier access to the bed: Raising or lowering the bed reduces the effort required to get in or out, which is especially useful for older people and those with mobility issues.
• Improved safety: Lowering the bed at night minimizes the risk of falls, while raising the bed during care routines reduces back strain for caregivers.
• Enhanced independence: For those who want to remain in their own homes, a high-low bed can make daily routines more manageable without constant assistance.

Customizable comfort: High-low beds are often paired with features like adjustable head and foot sections, massage settings, and under-bed lighting to provide a more restful sleep.

Our high-low beds are designed with generous elevation ranges to suit a variety of needs. Depending on the model, the bed platform can be adjusted as low as 4 inches from the floor (reducing fall risk) and raised up to 29 inches (ideal for caregiving and transfers).

This wide range of height adjustability makes high-low beds ideal for users and caregivers who want comfort and convenience at home.
