Project description
I am looking for a skilled carpenter or custom cabinetry specialist to design, build, and install a Murphy wall bed with an integrated fold-down desk in a spare bedroom that currently serves as my home office. The unit needs to house a queen-size mattress (about 60 by 80 inches) inside a cabinet no deeper than 27 inches, using a piston-lift or spring-tension mechanism rated for smooth one-hand operation. When folded up, the front panel should convert into a stable desk surface supported by fold-out desk legs and a heavy-duty folding hinge, with the option to add gas struts for controlled, slow-close motion on both the bed panel and the desk leg.
The cabinet exterior should be finished in a durable melamine or laminate finish that matches the existing baseboard and door trim in the room (satin white or light oak — open to suggestions from samples). The whole frame must be anchored directly into the wall studs with lag bolts rather than relying on the floor alone, since the room has a suspended wood floor and I do not want any wobble when the bed is lowered. Please include a cable pass-through for a desk lamp and outlet strip, plus two shallow side cabinets for linens. I can provide the mattress myself. Looking to start within two to three weeks, and would like the whole installation, including trim-out and touch-up paint, completed within 10 to 12 business days from delivery of materials. Please share examples of previous wall-bed or murphy-bed builds, a quote broken down by materials and labor, and your estimated timeline.
