Vertical Murphy Beds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When people think of a traditional Murphy bed, they typically envision the classic vertical wall bed design. To open the bed, the foot of the bed folds down and out. As a result, the vertical wall bed occupies less floor space than some other designs, but it does require higher ceilings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The vertical style often comes with the option to choose between a twin, full, queen, or even king-sized Murphy bed.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Amish-Silverton-Vertical-Murphy-Wall-Bed\/p\/45034\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"807\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7.png\" alt=\"wood vertical murphy bed\" class=\"wp-image-26155\" style=\"object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7.png 850w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7-300x285.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7-768x729.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Amish-Silverton-Vertical-Murphy-Wall-Bed\/p\/45034\">Amish Silverton Vertical Wall Bed<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-horizontal-murphy-beds\">2.
