The Bed Kit

Each standard bed frame includes one bed kit (Four-poster beds include three kits). Before starting, ensure your kit contains all required components.

(A) Cross-head screws (for slats)

(B) Half-moon washers

(C) Nuts

(D) Wooden dowels

(E) Threaded bolts

(F) Spanner

Step By Step Guide

The next steps apply whether you’ve chosen a standard bed frame or a four-poster.

Step 1 - Bed Post Prep

i. Insert wooden dowels (D) into the top and bottom pre-drilled holes of all four posts.

ii. Screw threaded bolts (E) into the middle holes of each post.

Tip: You may need to gently tap the dowels and threaded bolts with a hammer to ensure they’re properly aligned.

Step 2- Install Sidebeams

i. Align the three drilled holes at each end of the long sidebeams with the posts.

Step 3 - Secure Sidebeams

i. Attach securely using half-moon washers (B) and nuts (C). Tighten firmly.

TIP: Ensure the wooden support beam, which has been preinstalled on each side rail, is positioned in the lower position (closer to the floor).

Slats & Support Rails

For larger beds, additional support components may be included.

If supplied, position and secure the centre rail(s) and support leg(s) before fitting the slats.

Every bed frame comes with our premium solid pine slats—27mm thick for exceptional strength and support.

Tip: If you have a four-poster bed, install the slats after completing the four-poster assembly steps below.

Secure Slats

i. Evenly space slats across the frame, resting them securely on sidebeams (and central supports if provided).

ii. Secure slats using supplied screws (A) and a Phillips / crosshead screwdriver (powered screwdriver recommended).

TIP: While attaching slats, apply inward pressure on sidebeams (use your leg or body weight) to ensure a tight fit.

Four Poster Assembly

Follow the standard bed assembly instructions seen above to build the bottom half of your four-poster frame.

The top half of the frame (the section that defines the four poster) is assembled the same way.

i. Connect sidebeams to each post using dowels (D), bolts (E), washers (B), and nuts (C), as before.

ii. Connect the two taller posts together with one shorter sidebeam.

iii. Connect the two shorter posts together with the other shorter sidebeam.

iv. Join these two sets together using the longer sidebeams.

Tip: With two people, carefully lift and place the assembled top half onto the bottom half, aligning posts securely onto dowels.
