Maintenance
To keep your bed frame in optimal condition:

- Regular Checks: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
- Ventilation: Ensure adequate air circulation around and under the bed to prevent moisture buildup, especially in humid environments.
