Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your bed frame.

• Cleaning:
  • For the metal frame and wooden elements, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • For the upholstered ottoman, spot clean with a mild fabric cleaner as needed. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
• Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) inspect all bolts and screws. Tighten any that have become loose to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
• Weight Distribution: Ensure weight is evenly distributed across the bed frame to prevent undue stress on specific areas.

If you encounter issues with your bed frame, refer to the following common solutions:

• Squeaking Noises:
  • Check all frame connections and tighten any loose bolts.
  • Ensure the mattress is properly seated on the slats.
• Instability/Wobbling:
  • Verify that the bed frame is assembled correctly according to the instructions.
  • Confirm all fasteners are fully tightened.
  • Ensure the bed is on a level surface.
• Drawers Not Sliding Smoothly:
