If you have a California King mattress it might be best to add a headboard that attaches flat behind the head of the bed and doesn't push forward much at all or create an upholstered headboard that fits just above your mattress. If you have a regular king mattress and want no lip at the end then creating or buying an upholstered headboard that the mattress sits up against and will push the mattress forward a little may solve your problem. One last thing I'd like to mention is to keep in mind what kind of headboard, if any, you are adding. Remember the Pottery Barn Stratton bed is made to accommodate both King sizes, and as this bed is mirroring that design so will it. If you don't want a lip you should adjust accordingly- that's the glory of making your own bed. That lip will also come in handy should you use a box spring, which we will, because it makes the bed high. This also means the bed will leave you with a little lip either lengthwise for a regular king mattress or in the width for a California King, which I like.
So no adjustments other than correcting the length from 22 3/4" to 23 1/2" long for the sides of the foot bench as stated earlier no matter what king size mattress. The bed as shown, says it fits a mattress up to 84" long and 78" wide.
It will also fit a California King Mattress, the standard dimensions for which are 84" long x 72" wide. I've been reading all the posts and just wanted to let you ladies know - based on the dimensions of the finished bed it fits a regular (Eastern) King Mattress, the standard dimensions for which are 80" long x 76" wide.
