Description
The Drive 3835-4 is a vinyl-covered foam block for a person whose mattress stops short of the headboard or the footboard.
What does it do and how does it work?
It fills the open space at the end of the mattress with foam.
- The foam fills a gap of up to 4 in (102 mm) between the mattress and the headboard or footboard.
- A vinyl cover wipes clean when the surface needs it.
- It does not add length to the bed deck.
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- It suits a mattress that already matches the deck and leaves only a short end gap.
- Choose a frame extender when the deck itself is short.
- Choose a foam mattress when the whole sleep surface is the wrong length.
Will it fit?
Measure the gap and the mattress width before you rely on this block.
- The block is 35 in (889 mm) wide, 4 in (102 mm) long and 6 in (152 mm) high.
- A longer gap stays open past the foam. A wider mattress extends past the block on the sides.
- We confirm the measured gap and the mattress width before you order.
Using it day to day
Set the block in the gap, then wipe the vinyl when it is dirty.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
It works beside the mattress you already have.
- The mattress, the rails and the bed frame are separate. See bed accessories.
- Filling the end gap does not change which rails belong with that mattress. See bed rails.
How does it compare?
- Medical mattresses: a full surface when the mattress length is the problem.
- Span Q6785: length added to a Span bed frame, not a foam block.
Frequently asked questions
Does 3835-4 include a mattress?
No. You receive the vinyl-covered foam block. The mattress, the rails and the bed frame are separate.
Can someone sit on the block?
The block fills an end gap. It is not a seat, and it is not a second mattress.
Does the block lengthen the bed for a taller person?
No. It fills the end gap only. A taller person needs a longer mattress or a frame extender.
