How to Keep Sheets in Place on Murphy Beds (Without Constant Fixing)

Why Murphy Beds Are Sheet-Slipping Champions

If you’ve ever woken up tangled in a half-escaped sheet, you know the struggle is real—especially with Murphy beds. These space-saving wonders are brilliant for small rooms, but their vertical flips and tight corners make keeping sheets in place a daily battle. It’s not just you; anyone with a Murphy bed has probably muttered a few choice words while tucking corners for the third time in a week.

The Real Reason Sheets Won’t Stay Put

Let’s be honest: Murphy beds aren’t built like traditional beds. The constant folding, the upright storage, and the snug fit against the wall all conspire to pull your sheets loose. Even the best-fitted sheets can lose their grip. That’s where Zlumber comes in—our sleep solutions are designed for real-life annoyances like this, not just showroom perfection. We get that you want your bed to look neat and feel cozy, without a wrestling match every morning.

Tried-and-True Fixes (And Why They Fall Short)

You’ve probably tried the classics: extra-deep pocket sheets, sheet straps, or even safety pins (ouch). They work… until they don’t. Straps snap off, pins poke, and deep pockets still slip when the bed folds up. It’s enough to make you consider leaving your bed unmade for good. But there’s a smarter way.

Meet Zlumber®Lock: The Sheet Holder That Actually Works
