Space
Ensure you have enough room to assemble your bed. You will need to flip the bases during assembly, so make sure you have space to move around.
Footing
Our beds feature sturdy gliders for excellent support. The pre-drilled holes may need a gentle tap with a rubber mallet for a secure fit.
Connecting Bases
For added strength, our double, king, and super king-size beds are built from two smaller bases. Pre-drilled holes and link bars make this process straightforward.
Attaching the Headboard
Our beds have headboard fitting locations marked on both ends, offering flexibility. Double-check the placement before securing the headboard bolts. Adjust the height to fit your mattress and avoid gaps.
