PIVOT is a modular concept that allows you to customise your bedroom and exercise space. It all starts with the PIVOT Bed, which serves as the base and frame for the system. When locked upright, it provides numerous attachment points for PIVOT accessories. These include the PIVOT Power Rack, PIVOT Full-Width Pull-up Bar, and PIVOT Dip Bars, among others. To learn more about these attachments, please visit our Shop PIVOT Page.
The shipping time for PIVOT orders depends on our manufacturing cycle. If you place an order during the cycle, your order will be shipped within 2-12 weeks. We strive to provide the most accurate estimate possible and will notify you of any changes to your order's shipping date. Please note that shipping times may vary due to factors beyond our control, such as shipping carrier delays. If you have any questions about your order's shipping status, please don't hesitate to contact us.
PIVOT Bed is available in three lengths and three widths, and these are interchangeable for maximum size coverage.
The available lengths are:
1900mm (6'3")
2000mm (6'7"), and
2050mm (6'9")
while the available widths are:
1400mm (4'7")
1500mm (4'11"), and
1600mm (5'3").
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 sizes not listed, please contact us.
It is worth noting that the mattress sizes may not match the frame's exact measurements, and there is no issue if the frame is slightly larger than the mattress. Also, we are considering developing wider beds such as 1800mm (5'11") and 2000mm (6'7"), but we have not committed to these sizes yet. Please let us know if you are interested in these sizes, and the more feedback we receive, the more likely we are to develop them.
You can find all of PIVOT Bed's measurements HERE.
Currently, PIVOT can only be purchased through this website. We do not have any physical stores in the UK or overseas.

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 using gas springs, and once it reaches a vertical position, dual latches engage automatically and 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 risk of it toppling over.
PIVOT is manufactured in the UK and meets the internationally recognised safety standard BS EN ISO 20957-1 Stationary Training Equipment – General Safety Requirements and Test Methods.
The pull-up and dip bars are rated to 130kgs, exceeding the required safety standard of 325kgs. The product is self-supporting and has a very stable base, but it must be fixed to the wall or floor. The latching system is designed to be redundant, and even without latches, the product will lower slowly due to the strong gas struts used to assist lifting and lowering.
To ensure safety, the base unit must be attached to the rear wall or the floor. PIVOT has developed a unique computer-controlled safety testing rig to simulate dynamic movements and perform stress testing.
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 an 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.
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 do insist on attaching the base unit to the rear wall using appropriate heavy duty wall fixings (not supplied), or to the floor.
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.
The pull-up bar and dip bars on our product are rated to 130kgs, which is a standard weight limit for home gym equipment. However, to meet the required safety standard, our product has been tested to safely hold 2.5x the maximum user weight, which is 325kgs. We have also conducted strenuous endurance tests using our custom-developed, computer-controlled test rig, simulating a heavy 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. TRX is one of our partners and a TRX suspension trainer is included with every PIVOT package.
Without the optional power rack attachment or mat solution the whole product will weigh around 165kgs. The mat solution is around 60kgs and the rack around 80kgs.
As long as you match your mattress to the bed size, the only restriction is in the height, or thickness, of the mattress. This is roughly 270mm (11"), which covers all but a small subset of really thick mattresses. 300mm (12") thick mattresses may work with PIVOT Bed, but the top corner may come into contact with the rear wall and part of the base unit when pivoting. This should be a minor snagging rather than a problem which prevents you from pivoting the bed.
There are infinite types and standards of flooring, but the weight of the PIVOT Bed is not significantly more than regular beds, and its weight is spread out over a larger area. However, it's best to consult with a knowledgeable person in the building trade to assess your individual flooring scenario. 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. When exercising at home, be considerate of your neighbors, especially if you live in an apartment. If you live above others in an older building with wooden flooring 'rafters,' exercise at home with caution.
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 ship to Europe, North America, Asia and Australasia. If you live outside of these regions and are interested in purchasing PIVOT, please visit our international site where you can purchase PIVOT in your own currency and language. If this option is not available to you, contact us using the Contact Form on this site and we will discuss if we can ship PIVOT to your country.

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.
