Why Getting the Right Bed Sheet Size Matters
There's nothing more frustrating than buying beautiful bed sheets only to find they don't fit your mattress. In Pakistan, bed sizes don't always follow international standards — so this guide is designed specifically for Pakistani shoppers to help you buy with confidence every time.
Standard Bed Sheet Sizes in Pakistan
| Bed Size | Mattress Dimensions | Fitted Sheet Size | Flat Sheet / Bedcover |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single | 36" × 72" | ~44" × 80" | ~60" × 90" |
| Double | 54" × 72" | ~62" × 80" | ~90" × 100" |
| Queen | 60" × 78" | ~68" × 86" | ~100" × 108" |
| King | 72" × 78" | ~80" × 86" | ~108" × 108" |
Single Bed Sheets
Single beds are most common in children's rooms, hostels, and guest rooms. Standard size in Pakistan is 36" × 72". Always check pocket depth if your mattress has a topper.
Double Bed Sheets
The double bed (54" × 72") is the most popular size in Pakistani households. Most bed sheet sets sold locally are labelled "double" — but always confirm exact measurements before buying.
Queen Bed Sheets
Queen-size (60" × 78") beds are increasingly popular in urban Pakistani homes, especially in newer apartments. They offer extra width and comfort for couples.
King Bed Sheets
King beds (72" × 78") are the premium choice for spacious master bedrooms. King-size sheets from MyHome Bed Linen ensure a perfectly tailored, hotel-quality fit.
How to Measure Your Mattress
- Length: Head to foot along the top surface.
- Width: Side to side across the top surface.
- Depth: Top surface to base. Add extra if you use a mattress topper.
For fitted sheets, add at least 10–12" to depth for sufficient tuck-under.
Tips for Buying in Pakistan
- Always ask for measurements in inches, not just "double" or "king" — local labelling is inconsistent.
- Imported mattresses may follow US/UK sizing, which differs from Pakistani standards.
- When in doubt, size up — a slightly larger flat sheet is always better than one that's too small.
