PIVOT is the way to have a gym in your home. PIVOT opens up existing space, giving you a dedicated zone to exercise in with all of your equipment close to hand. It provides a high quality bed, power rack, flooring, storage and a range of other accessories so you can get stronger in your home – with no waiting and no commuting.

PIVOT isn't a gadget, or just another exercise product to clog up your home. It's the product which will allow you to use all of your other equipment, all while taking up no more space than your existing bed. It makes it all possible without introducing downsides.

Prior to PIVOT, your options were to extend your home or sacrifice a bedroom. The sweetspot is creating a walk-in gym from a barely used guest bedroom but, as it only takes one minute to switch, using it as your main bed is also so much easier than going to a commercial gym.

Shipping is included, yes. At this time we will also cover FedEx Out Of Delivery Areas postal / zip codes.

Duties & Taxes are also included in the price. If you are outside of the UK, Europe, USA and Canada, we will assess the Duties & Taxes for your country/region after purchase and let you know if we can cover it inclusively. Most countries are covered but if Duties & Taxes combined are larger than 10% we may ask you to cover some excess.

The shipping time for PIVOT orders depends on where we are in our manufacturing cycle.

If we have stock of all the parts and accessories for your order, we can often dispatch it the next day.

If we don't have stock of all the parts and accessories for your order, it can take up to 12 weeks for us to dispatch. We are a small company producing a very high quality product in relatively small numbers, we are not mass-producing and holding large amounts of stock.

Our headboards are made-to-order, in the UK, due to the huge number of permutations. This usually takes less than a week. For orders outside the UK, headboards can ONLY be shipped with the bed – they cannot be shipped on their own after the bed has shipped.

We can hold orders until you are ready to take delivery and we strongly advise getting your order in earlier rather than later to avoid delays.

UK Orders take about two days to deliver. Orders to North America, Europe and some other regions are serviced by FedEx air freight and this takes on average about 10 days to deliver.

Regions such as Australia, New Zealand and Africa are served by ocean freight, increasing the delivery time. Shipments by air freight are also possible at an added cost.

PIVOT Bed is available in two lengths and five widths, and these are interchangeable for maximum size coverage.

The available lengths are:
1900mm (6'3")
2000mm (6'7")

The available widths are:
1400mm (4'7")
1500mm (4'11")
1600mm (5'3")
1800mm (5'11)
1900mm (6'3")

Please note that international naming conventions and slight size variations may cause confusion, so it is essential to follow the dimensions provided on our product page. If you need a combination of length and width not listed, choose Custom at checkout and send us a message at orders@pvt.fit. Please note, though, that we cannot produce custom lengths or widths, just custom combinations of existing lengths and widths.

It is worth noting that international mattress sizes may not match the frame's exact measurements, and there is no issue if the frame is slightly larger or smaller than your mattress. Mattresses are deformable and small gaps at the edges do not present any problems. Producing parts for each and every international mattress size would not be commercially viable.

This is very unlikely. You'll be creating a personal gym for you and your family, not a commercial gym.

The tiniest amount of hygiene and ventilation are all that are required to ensure your home doesn't smell from exercising.

No, PIVOT is probably the most silent bed you'll ever sleep in. Everything is held under tension and/or rubber pads are used to prevent metal on metal sounds.

No, this is not a sofa bed. PIVOT presents an incredibly strong, flat platform for your existing mattress to rest on. We don't use those cheap, rattly wooden slats that almost all beds use.

No, this would be trivialising the amount of engineering involved in making a rack capable of pivoting under a bed.

Our rack has retractable feet to allow it to pivot under the bed. Its height matches the size of the bed, and the uprights have been explicitly designed to allow extensions to telescope within them should your ceilings permit a higher pull-up bar. Ours is the only folding rack which supports storing weight plates on it, even though they also need to store horizontally.

Our rack's quality easily matches that of the best in the industry.

Furthermore, the imperial vs metric argument is overstated as an issue. Most racks available in North America are actually made in the Far East and hence are designed and manufactured to metric specifications. The brands refer to the sizing using imperial equivalents so they can sell more to North American buyers. As an example: 3x3" uprights with 5/8" holes really means 75x75mm with 16mm holes.

The PIVOT Bed's base structure is designed to provide exceptional stability and strength, ensuring that it remains firmly in place on the floor. The bed frame pivots within the base, and once it reaches a vertical position, latches engage automatically and two further latches can be locked independently. The base extends beyond the lines of force created by exercising, particularly from the pull-up and dip bars, so there is no possibility of it toppling over. Furthermore, the base unit must be screwed to the wall.

This depends on what configuration you have, and what exercise you wish to perform, etc. However, lifting and lowering the bed takes just a few seconds.

To lift the bed, you generally just need to move the pillows to the centre of the mattress, under the duvet/covers, and lift. Bedding should be held in place between your mattress and headboard/wall.

The mattress is held to the bed frame using an elastic strap over each corner at the foot of the bed, which goes over the mattress and under your fitted sheet, meaning it is hidden from view.

Here are two short videos showing how long it takes for a full configuration including our optional pull-up bar extensions:

The product is made in the UK and has passed BS EN ISO 20957-1 Stationary Training Equipment – General Safety Requirements and Test Methods. This is a demanding and internationally recognised safety standard and the only applicable standard for the UK and Europe.

At PIVOT, safety is our number one priority. The pull-up and dip bars are rated to 130kgs, which means they have been tested to in excess of 325kgs of load as multiplying the maximum rated user weight by x2.5 is required to pass the safety standard. The product is self-supporting with a very stable base, though it must be fixed to the wall or floor so it remains safe while being lifted/lowered.

The latching system is designed to be redundant – any one latch will hold the apparatus upright safely. Even without latches, the product will only ever lower to the floor slowly due to the strong gas springs used to assist lifting and lowering.

We've developed our own, unique, computer-controlled safety testing rig to allow us to perform stress testing (dynamic movement). This means we can simulate, for example, a 130kg user performing 12,000 pull-ups. We use it every time we make a relevant change.

The pull-up bar and dip bars on our product are rated to 130 KG, which is a standard weight limit for premium home gym equipment.

Please note this does not include our power rack. This apparatus easily exceeded our testing capabilities of 700 KG (per upright).

To meet the required safety standard, our product has been tested to safely hold 2.5x the maximum user weight, which means 325 KG (130 x 2.5).

We have also conducted strenuous endurance tests using our custom-developed, computer-controlled test rig, simulating a 130 KG user performing 12,000 pull-ups and dips.

You don't need to be strong as the vast majority of the weight is taken care of by carefully balanced gas struts. If you're able to perform exercise to any reasonable level, you will easily be strong enough and will probably be able to lift and lower the bed with one arm. If you are elderly or have an injury, you should probably get in touch with us before buying or wait until we have some display units near you to try out. With the power rack and all the add-ons on the bed, along with a full-load of weight plates, the bed does get heavier to lift – but anyone looking to perform this type of exercise will be able to lift and lower it.

Yes, we are proud to have TRX as one of our partners and our design includes a mounting location specifically for mounting a TRX to the top/bottom of the bed frame.

You can use this custom mounting location to hook the TRX onto directly, and keep your TRX Extender wrapped around the pull-up bar to enable a huge range of effective bodyweight exercises.

There are also many locations on the bed frame which can be used to attach resistance bands to. Just having something strong and dependable to pull against offers virtually limitless exercise potential. No more door handles flying across the room...

PIVOT Bed on its own weighs about 160 KG (353 lbs), or equivalent to two average people.

The Power Rack adds approximately another 60 KG (132 lbs), or equivalent to less than one average person.

The rubber exercise mats weigh about 41 KG (90 lbs), or equivalent to half an average person.

The Full Monty Package weighs equivalent to about four average people.

These figures vary with bed sizes.

There are infinite types and standards of flooring, but the weight of the PIVOT Bed is equivalent to only two average people. Even our Full Monty package is only equivalent to the weight of four average people.

Exercising on your floor, especially with free weights, can cause damage, so it's important to use a strong, rubber-based mat. Avoid using EVA foam matting as it has serious limitations and is unsuitable for heavy equipment. You should also be careful of smells and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) released by cheap rubber mats. Ours are made from virgin, natural latex rubber.

Supervision by a responsible adult is recommended for young teenage athletes. The bed should only be lifted and lowered by an adult who ensures it is securely locked before exercise. Children should not be allowed to use or play near PIVOT when it is in a vertical position.

We can ship almost anywhere in the world, and we have already shipped to a great many countries.

We use FedEx for air freight into Europe, North America and selected other countries/regions where FedEx offer us rates which we can work with.

If FedEx cannot air freight to your region/country for a reasonable price, we use ocean freight.

For international shipments to countries we are less familiar with, it may be that you will have to take care of the Taxes and Duties before the shipment is delivered to you. We will contact you upon receiving your order to let you know how much this will be, or you are welcome to contact us in advance.

Please get in touch with us and share your postal code. We can contact some existing customers in your area to see if they're open to showing off their PIVOT installation – we've never had a customer say no!

Please refer to this page for details.

PIVOT Bed has numerous attachment points compatible with resistance bands and TRX suspension trainers.

The PIVOT Power Rack is also compatible with most accessories that use the metric measurement system of 75x75mm uprights with 16.5mm holes, which is an industry standard. However, those using imperial inches should note that accessories with 3x3" uprights or 5/8" pins may fit but could be slightly loose. The only exception is when an accessory has two pins/holes, such as a spotter arm, which may not align correctly with the holes on the uprights due to different hole spacing.
