Before Installation
- Verify Compatibility: Ensure your wooden slats are between 7mm and 9mm thick, and 53mm to 54mm wide.
- Identify Cap Types: Distinguish between the end caps (for the sides of the bed frame) and centre caps (for the middle support rail).
Installation Steps
- Locate the pre-drilled holes on your bed frame's side and centre support rails.
- Align the two plastic pins on the appropriate cap (end cap for side rails, centre cap for the middle rail) with the corresponding holes on your bed frame.
- Firmly press the cap into the holes until it is securely seated. No additional tools are typically required.
- Insert your wooden bed slats into the installed caps. The caps will hold the slats firmly in place.

5. Troubleshooting
Common Issues and Solutions
- Cap Breaks During Installation:
- Cause: This can occur if the cap is forced into an incorrect hole or if the wrong size cap is used for the bed frame.
- Solution: Ensure you are using the correct cap type (end or centre) for the specific rail and that the pre-drilled holes match the cap's prongs. Do not force the cap if it does not fit easily. Verify the dimensions of your bed frame's holes and slats against the product specifications.
- Slats Not Staying in Place:
- Cause: The caps may not be fully seated, or the slats may be the incorrect size for the caps.
- Solution: Press down firmly on the caps to ensure they are fully engaged with the bed frame. Confirm that your wooden slats are within the specified thickness (7-9mm) and width (53-54mm) for these caps.
If you encounter persistent issues, please refer to the "Specifications" section to re-verify compatibility or contact customer support.
