- Attach Headboard and Footboard to Side Rails: Connect the side rails to the headboard and footboard using the provided bolts and Allen wrench. Do not fully tighten bolts until all major components are connected.
- Install Center Support: If your model includes a center support beam, attach it according to the diagrams in your specific instruction sheet.

- Noise-Free Design: The frame is designed with foot pads and secure connections to minimize noise. Ensure all connections remain tight for optimal performance.

5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help prolong the life and performance of your bed frame.
- Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame with a soft, damp cloth. For the wooden headboard, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Fastener Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
- Floor Protectors: Ensure floor protectors are still in place and in good condition to prevent floor scratches and reduce noise. Replace if worn.
