Description
The Drive Delta Ultra Light 1000 Full Electric Low Bed lowers its deck to 9.25 inches — close enough to the floor that a fall from bed height becomes a short roll — while keeping full pendant control of head, foot and height. It is the Delta platform reworked for fall-risk care at home.
- Low deck: 9.25 to 23 in height range helps reduce fall injury risk
- Full electric: head, foot and height adjust from the hand pendant
- Height motor arrives pre-installed on the foot section
- 9V battery in the hand control lowers the bed up to 9 times in a power failure
- 450 lb capacity including the occupant, on a zinc-coated spring deck
- Available bare, with full or half rails, and with mattress packages — choose your configuration on this page
Full Electric Control at a Fall-Safe Height
The Drive Delta Ultra Light 1000 Full Electric Low Bed keeps everything that makes the Delta line a homecare standard — the universal frame, the self-contained UL motor, the wood-grain end panels — and drops the sleep surface to as low as 9.25 inches. The caster can be moved between the standard and low-bed positions, and the top-mounted Hi/Lo crank stays reachable without bending in the low position. The bed, rails and mattress have been safety tested by SGS to satisfy applicable FDA entrapment guidelines.

Why Choose the Drive Delta Ultra Light 1000 Full Electric Low Bed?
For a patient who rolls out of bed or tries to stand unassisted at night, deck height is the specification that matters most — and 9.25 inches changes the outcome of a fall. This bed pairs that low stance with full electric positioning and the Delta line's universal frame and battery backup, so fall safety never means giving up comfort or caregiver convenience. MedicalEx ships it in two cartons, ready to assemble.
Manuals and Troubleshooting Guides
Frequently Asked Questions
How low does the deck go?
The deck adjusts from 23 inches down to 9.25 inches, and the casters can be repositioned for the low-bed configuration.
Is a mattress or rails included?
It depends on the configuration you choose on this page. The base configuration is the bare bed — no rails and no mattress. Other configurations add full or half rails, an innerspring mattress, or a therapeutic support surface mattress.
What does the hand pendant control?
All three functions: the head section, the foot section, and the overall height of the bed.
What happens during a power failure?
A 9V battery in the hand control lowers the head and foot sections up to nine times, returning the patient to a flat position until power is restored.
How much weight can the bed hold?
450 lb maximum including the occupant. Allow for the mattress and any accessories within that total.
Can the bed be made longer?
Yes. The optional 15030EXTKIT extension kit (sold separately) extends the frame from 80 inches to 84 inches.
What does the warranty cover?
Limited Lifetime on welds and the frame, 5 years on the motor and hand control, and 1 year on all other parts and components.
