Instructions

Step 1: Unpack and Identify the Components

Remove all components from the packaging and sort them into piles. Typically, you will have the headboard, footboard, side rails, slats, and hardware.

Step 2: Assemble the Side Rails

Connect the side rails to the headboard and footboard using the bolts and nuts provided. Tighten the bolts with the wrench or socket set.

Step 3: Attach the Slats

Insert the slats into the slots in the side rails. The slats provide support for the mattress and help distribute weight evenly.

Step 4: Center the Headboard and Footboard

Position the headboard and footboard in the center of the side rails. Ensure they are aligned correctly and attach them securely with the bolts.

Step 5: Check for Stability

Once the frame is assembled, ensure it is sturdy and stable. Rock the frame back and forth to check for any loose joints or wobbles.
