The quick answer

The IKEA Hemnes daybed cover is made to measure, so it fits a Hemnes, a Brimnes, a standard twin or any custom mattress. Write the mattress length, width and thickness in the personalization box, for example 39 x 75 x 5 in (99 x 190 x 13 cm). Thicker mattresses of 8 in (20 cm) or 9.5 in (24 cm) are fine.

Before you place the daybed order

  • Measure the mattress, not the frame: length, width, thickness.
  • Two mattresses stacked? Give their combined thickness.
  • Write all three in personalization, e.g. 31.5 x 79 x 9.5 in (80 x 201 x 24 cm).
  • Choose the full set or the cover only.
  • Want a spare mattress cover? Ask for the separate link.
  • Curtains to match are not part of the range.

A name gets you to the listing

Daybed mattresses vary, even between two daybeds that share a name. So the cover is not cut to a catalog size. It is cut to what you measure.

That is why a Brimnes, a twin or a stacked pair all work. The Hemnes cover measuring Pattern shows where the tape goes, and Hemnes daybed covers shows finished sets. The corduroy option is thick and high quality. How thick is your mattress?

The name finds the listing. The numbers find the fit. The rest is fabric.

A made-to-measure daybed cover follows the mattress, not the brand: an 8 in or 9.5 in thick mattress is fine once all three dimensions are written down.

Buyer questions

  1. A common question

    Will the Hemnes cover set fit my IKEA Brimnes, with backrests but no armrests?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes, it fits: order and write the exact size of your mattress. For the mattress cover plus backrests without armrests, add the mattress cover and 2 backrest pillows to the cart one by one. They ship together.

  2. A common question

    Will it fit a standard twin mattress, or a custom size?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. Everything is made to your exact dimensions, written in personalization. For two stacked 4 3/4 in (12 cm) mattresses, the cover was made at the measured 78 3/4 x 35 1/2 x 9 1/2 in (200 x 90 x 24 cm).

  3. A common question

    My mattress is 8 or 9.5 inches thick. Will the cover fit?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes, it is made to measure. Put the thickness in the order notes; after purchase the workshop confirms length, width and thickness, for example a 31.5 x 79 x 9.5 in cover.

  4. A common question

    Can the set be made for a 7¾ in (20 cm) mattress, with a spare mattress cover?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes, in any size, including a mattress about 8 in (20 cm) thick. A spare mattress cover comes on a separate link. The fabric is a thick, high-quality corduroy. Matching curtains aren't offered.

Questions buyers ask next

Do the backrests and bolsters need their own measurements?

No. Backrests and bolsters are sized from your mattress cover measurements. Standard backrests are about 19 3/4 in (50 cm) high, and other heights are possible if you ask when you order.

Can I order the daybed slipcover without backrests or foam?

Yes. Choose the Cover Only option on the daybed cover set and write your exact mattress dimensions and fabric code in personalization. You receive the slipcover alone, with no backrests, armrests or foam.

Which fabrics does the daybed set come in?

Corduroy, velvet or linen, with cover and piping in any color on the chart. Pieces can even use different fabrics. The price changes with the option you pick: cover, backrests, armrests or the full set.
