Replacement Gas Struts for Easy Fold Murphy Beds
Our heavy-duty replacement gas struts are specifically calibrated for Easy Fold Murphy Bed systems and are available for both vertical and horizontal wall bed configurations.
Designed to provide smooth lifting assistance and controlled closing, these struts restore the safe and effortless operation of your Murphy bed.
Designed for Easy Fold Murphy Bed Kits
These gas struts are engineered exclusively for Easy Fold Murphy Bed hardware systems.
Because wall bed mechanisms vary between brands — including pivot positioning, cabinet depth, and mattress weight — we cannot guarantee compatibility with other Murphy bed kits or custom-built wall beds.
If you’re unsure whether your bed uses our system, please contact us before ordering.
Choosing the Correct Configuration
Murphy bed gas struts are pressure-specific and must match your bed orientation:
- Vertical Murphy beds require a different force rating
- Horizontal wall beds use a separate calibration
Using the incorrect struts can make the bed difficult to open or prevent it from operating safely.
If you need assistance selecting the right option, we’re happy to help.
What’s Included
- 2 × Matched replacement gas struts

When Should You Replace Your Gas Struts?

How much does the wood usually cost to build the Murphy Bed / Wall Bed cabinet?

As a rough guide based on typical plywood prices:
To build a Murphy bed / wall bed: approximately $500
Many customers purchase their plywood from suppliers such as Bunnings, Mitre 10, or other local timber merchants.
