Antique zip and link bedframe questions

Hi I have inherited an antique bed frame which functions as 2 singles but also as a double when put together, which is how I'd like to set it up.
I need to buy a mattress for it.
However, the centre has 2 wooden panels which would separate off a zip and link mattress on the bottom side of the mattress, probably by around 5-6cm.
I wonder whether it is ok to just zip the top section of the mattress, which presumably would be well above the height of the wooden middle section and then put a mattress topper on.
You seem very knoweldgeable on the subject, so I wondered whether you might have any ideas or thoughts on what would be best to do.
Many thanks.

.Hi Sam.
I would personally consider bridging the bottom of the base (with chip foam / foam or something that would offer some kind of suspension) enabling the mattress to sit on a level rather than levelling the sleep surface.
I would love to see a pic of the actual bed.
John.
