  3. Step 3: Install Mattress Support Frame

    Place the mattress support frame inside the crib. The frame has multiple height settings. Choose the desired height and secure the frame to the side rails using the designated hooks or bolts. Ensure the frame is level and stable.

  4. Step 4: Final Tightening

    Once all components are in place, go back and securely tighten all bolts and fasteners. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the wood. Ensure the crib is sturdy and does not wobble.

  5. Step 5: Place Mattress

    Place a standard size crib mattress (sold separately) into the crib. Ensure there are no large gaps between the mattress and the crib sides (no more than 1 inch).
