Radiator beds help.


Hi chaps and chapesses.

I dont have any gas, only electric, so the heating is storage heaters. Does anyone know if the radiator beds will fit on them?

Sorry, don't know Dawn. A thermal mat would sit at the base on the floor though.

Re: Radiator beds help.


The two radiator beds I have hang onto the radiator by the hooked end of the metal frame. Both are different but the hook is slightly less than the size of a umbrella/walking stick hooked end, if that makes any sense?
However, there was a post on here a wee while ago about window ledge beds and I wonder if they would work on a storage heater? I'll try and find the link.

Similar to this

I'm sure the ones I remember were cheaper and less ornate but can't find it now.

Yes but the dogs claim the floor.

Thanks for the link, much appreciated.

I had electric storage heaters in one flat and if I recall correctly it took a bit of jiggling about like belts and braces, but it worked until I moved and Oscaar was a decent size then think I recall fixing them so they strapped round the heater.
