Key benefits
- Fits where space is tight: At 90cm wide, this size leaves floor room for a desk, wardrobe or toy storage in a compact child's bedroom or a loft room with a narrow footprint.
- Contract-grade fire rating: The Crib 5 rating meets the stricter fire standard required in many rented and student properties, which most standard domestic singles do not.
- Guest room flexibility: A UK single works well in a spare room that spends most of its life as an office, or set up in a pair for guests who prefer separate beds.
- Standard frame fit: 90 x 190cm is the default size for UK single frames, divans, bunks and mid sleepers, so an existing frame is unlikely to cause a problem.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Single sheets and duvets are the most widely stocked and least expensive of any UK size, which keeps running costs down for landlords and parents alike.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for one sleeper, a child moving up from a cot bed, a teenager, or an adult in a student room or first flat where the frame is already provided. It also suits a landlord or parent kitting out a rented room, since the Crib 5 contract rating covers the fire regulations most lets require, or a spare room that only hosts guests a few nights a year.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who moves around at night, or two people will ever share the bed, as 90cm is a one-person width. We'd recommend the UK small double for a roomier solo sleep, or the UK double for couples.

FAQ's
Will the UK single Lincoln Crib 5 fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK bunk and mid sleeper frames, so width and length should be fine. Highgrove doesn't publish a depth for this mattress, though, and raised frames need the mattress to sit below the guard rail. Check the depth with the retailer against your frame's maximum before ordering.
What room size do I need for a UK single mattress?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space for a UK single. That gives you room to walk alongside the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. In a shared children's room with two singles, remember to allow a walkway between the beds as well as space around each one.
Is the UK single Lincoln Crib 5 suitable for a rented or student room?
Yes, arguably more so than most singles. The Crib 5 contract rating means it meets the fire resistance standard commonly required for mattresses in rented accommodation, HMOs and student housing, which ordinary domestic mattresses often don't. That makes this size a practical choice for landlords furnishing single rooms.
Is a UK single big enough for a teenager?
Usually, yes. At 3ft x 6ft 3in it's the standard size for children through to adults, and the length suits most teenagers comfortably. A taller or restless teen may appreciate more width, in which case the UK small double, which is 30cm wider, is the natural step up if the room allows.
Where can I buy the Lincoln Crib 5 in a UK single?
Compare the retailers listed on this page; the prices shown here are updated as retailers change them. Stocking of this size can shift over time, so the live table is the reliable place to check. If you want firmness or construction details confirmed first, ask the retailer directly, as Highgrove publishes limited specification for this model.
