2. Safety Information
- Assembly: Ensure all hardware is securely tightened during initial assembly. Periodically check all connections and hardware for any loosening and re-tighten as necessary to maintain stability.
- Space: Be cautious when assembling or disassembling the bed frame, especially in confined spaces, due to its overall dimensions.

Assembly of the Merax Queen Bed Frame requires two adults. Please follow the detailed step-by-step instructions provided in the separate assembly guide included in your package. Ensure you have adequate space for assembly and that all hardware is used correctly.
