Default Can two twin matrresses be made into one BIG bed?

How is it possible to set two twin mattresses side by
side to make one big bed?

How to cover or fill in the "crevice" between the
twins?

Should I use tow twin bed frames..... or one big king
frame to hole everything?

Thanks in advance!

my wife on any of our cruises so they must be doing something right.

I believe they have both twin matresses and larger ones depending on
what you want........

Slide the frames next to each other. If you buy a king frame, it will probably
not provide enough support along the inner side. The can be addressed with
plywood, or some extra wood underneath, but what's the point?

Have slept this way for years as I'm a light sleeper. I've seen "T" pads
designed to fill the gap, but never found the need. Any group activity tends to
be on one side or the other.

King frame won't work for a couple of reasons. One cited above, the other is
that two twins do not make a king. They're the right width but 6" short. You'll
either have to cut the frame down (which still leaves you short on side
support), or buy Twin XL mattresses. You will also run into the same problem
with fitted sheets.


Any group activity tends to be on one side or the other.

It's obvious that your groups are smaller than mine.
