At Lori, we make getting a Murphy bed faster, easier, and better. We keep our beds in-stock, and we ship them quickly, right to your door. We design our Murphy beds to be simple to assemble and safe to use, and we choose only high-quality materials like real wood and powder-coated steel.

And finally, we stand behind our beds with a Lifetime Warranty and a Customer Experience team available Monday to Friday during business hours. Feel free to compare us to the competition. We’ll be here when you get back.

Our Murphy beds and other products are usually in-stock and ready to ship within 1-2 business days. FedEx orders typically arrive 3 to 7 business days after they ship. Larger orders that ship by freight typically take 3 to 5 business days to process and 7 to 10 business days in transit, with delivery by appointment. Any pre-order or backordered products will show the expected shipping date before you place your order.

Most Lori Beds orders ship via FedEx and arrive at your property like any other online delivery. There's no delivery window to book, and no one needs to come into your home. Larger or multi-item orders ship by LTL freight instead, and the carrier will contact you to schedule a drop-off appointment.

You don’t need a professional to assemble or install a Lori Bed. Each step is clearly shown in our assembly instructions and step-by-step videos. The process takes 6-8 hours (or a full day) for two people, but you don’t need any special skills or tools.
