Can I Make this a Twin XL Storage Bed?
Yes! The twin XL modification is easy. Just add 5″ to the overall length.
Can I Make this a King?
Yes! A standard king is just two twin XL beds but together. Only build drawers for the two outsides (and you can make the drawers deeper for more storage.
The king is the best bang for your buck if you are wanting to build a bigger bed, and the twin XL option makes them always valuable for kids rooms too.

Yes, you can do this, I would recommend the two bed method like the standard king, so you can move the beds into the room and the center is supported.
