Can you raise an ottoman bed?

Yes, you can raise an ottoman bed. If you cannot raise an ottoman bed, then you would not be able to open the storage compartment easily and efficiently. If you cannot open the ottoman bed, then you should look into buying a replacement for the ottoman bed or a new bed frame that leaves the space underneath free for storage.

On the other hand, if you were to buy a bed frame that has storage space underneath the bed frame available, just be aware that there is going to be dirt and bacteria building underneath the bed easily as there is more space for them to enter, if the underneath of the bed is not cleaned on a regular basis.

When it comes to raising an ottoman bed if you plan to physically lift the whole ottoman bed by yourself, I will avoid doing so as the chance of the ottoman bed will increase, and you do not want to purchase a new bed frame or ottoman bed to replace your new ottoman bed. This is because lifting the ottoman bed by yourself will put unnecessary strain on the ottoman bed and could cause the storage compartment to break under the pressure of the ottoman bed being at an angle.

If you plan to lift the ottoman bed while there are items of substantial mass, you should remove those items first to remove strain on the ottoman bed to avoid any damage to the ottoman bed so that you do not also hurt yourself during the process.
