King Headboard Width. There is not one standard size of king headboard. However, they all are at least 76 inches wide to accommodate the king mattress. A typical width for a king headboard often ranges from 79 inches to 84 inches. There are a number of styles of headboards, and the exact width of a headboard often depends upon the style.
The Right Fit. A regular king bed measures 76 inches wide by 80 inches long, while a California king bed measures 72 inches wide; in length, it can run from 84 to 85 inches. For a comforter that covers the top mattress, select one that adds 20 inches to the mattresses width -- if not more -- and 10 inches to its length.
