- Four (4) Bed Slats
- All necessary Hardware
- Detailed Installation Instructions (included in packaging)
3.2 Installation Steps:
- Prepare Crib: Disassemble the side rails of your convertible crib, retaining the headboard and footboard.
- Attach Bed Rails: Connect the provided wooden bed rails to the headboard and footboard of your crib using the included hardware. Ensure all connections are secure and tightened.
- Install Slats: Place the four bed slats across the bed rails. For optimal support, additional slats may be required (sold separately).

4. Usage and Safety
Once assembled, the full-size bed provides a comfortable and secure sleeping environment. The bed frame, when properly assembled and with sufficient slats, supports up to 600 pounds.
4.1 Enhancing Support:
For maximum stability and weight distribution, especially for adult use or if the bed will be subject to significant weight, it is recommended to purchase additional bed slats. These are sold separately and can significantly increase the bed's longevity and support.
Image 6: This image illustrates optional accessories such as additional bed slats, a safety rail for toddlers, and a full-size mattress, which can be purchased separately to enhance the bed setup.
4.2 Mattress Height Considerations:
Using slats directly under the mattress will result in a lower mattress profile compared to using a box spring. Consider your preference for mattress height when setting up the bed.

4.3 Material Quality:
The conversion kit is constructed from 100% solid wood, ensuring durability and strength. All finishes are water-based and non-toxic, free from lead and phthalates, to provide a safe environment.

5. Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and integrity of your conversion kit, follow these simple care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
- Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain structural integrity.
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid exposing the furniture to extreme temperature changes or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can cause wood to warp or fade.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during assembly or use, please review the following common concerns:
- Rails do not align with crib ends: Double-check the compatibility guide (Section 2) to ensure your crib model is supported. Verify that the headboard and footboard are correctly oriented.
- Bed feels unstable or wobbly: Ensure all hardware is securely tightened. Over time, screws can loosen, so periodic checks are important. Consider adding more slats for increased support, especially if the bed is used by adults or for higher weight capacities.
- Missing parts or damaged components: If any parts are missing or damaged upon arrival, please contact customer support immediately for assistance.
