Setup and Assembly
Assembly of the Merax Full Size Loft Bed requires careful attention to detail. It is recommended that two adults perform the assembly. Ensure you have sufficient space and all components are present before beginning.
Required Tools (Not Included):
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Allen wrench (often included with hardware, but a set can be helpful)
- Rubber mallet (optional, for gentle tapping)
Assembly Steps:
- Unpack and Identify Components: Carefully unpack all boxes and lay out all parts. Compare them against the parts list provided in your separate assembly guide to ensure nothing is missing or damaged. Note: There is no spare hardware, so do not lose any pieces.
- Assemble the Base Frame: Begin by connecting the main support beams and legs as indicated in your assembly guide. Ensure all connections are finger-tightened initially.
- Install the Desk and Shelving Units: Attach the desk surface and the integrated shelving units according to the diagrams. Pay attention to orientation to avoid redoing steps.
- Construct the Storage Staircase: Assemble the staircase components, including the drawers and shelves within the steps.
- Attach Guardrails and Bed Slats: Secure the guardrails to the loft bed frame. Install the wooden slats across the bed frame to support the mattress.
- Final Tightening: Once all components are in place, systematically tighten all screws and bolts using the appropriate tools. Do not overtighten.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and structural integrity of your loft bed.
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the painted finish.
- Hardware Check: Periodically inspect all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary to maintain stability.
- Wood Care: Protect the wood from extreme temperature changes and direct sunlight to prevent warping or fading.
- Weight Distribution: Avoid placing excessive weight on any single point of the bed, desk, or shelves.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Merax Loft Bed, consider the following common solutions:
