Setup and Assembly

Assembly of the DG Casa Raven Queen Bed Frame is designed to be straightforward. It is recommended to have two people for assembly, though it can be completed by one individual. No box spring is required for this platform bed.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Verify all package contents are present.
2. Attach Side Rails to Headboard: Connect the one-piece side rails to the headboard using the provided hardware. Ensure connections are secure but do not fully tighten bolts until all major components are assembled.
3. Attach Footboard: Connect the footboard to the other end of the side rails.
4. Install Center Support: Place the center support beam(s) and attach any necessary support legs.
5. Place Slats: Lay the wooden slats across the bed frame. Secure them in place according to the instructions, typically by screwing them into the side rails. A power drill may be helpful for this step.
6. Adjust Headboard Height: The headboard offers adjustable height settings (41.5” H or 45.5” H). Select your preferred height during assembly by aligning the headboard supports to the appropriate holes on the frame.
7. Final Tightening: Once all components are in place and aligned, fully tighten all bolts and screws. Do not overtighten.

Maintenance

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

• Wood Frame: Wipe the wood surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Polish with a wood-safe furniture polish as needed.
• Upholstered Headboard: For general cleaning, vacuum the fabric regularly using an upholstery attachment. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a professional upholstery cleaner or use a fabric-specific cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Consider applying a fabric protector (e.g., Scotchgard) to the headboard upholstery to help prevent stains.
• Hardware: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.

Troubleshooting

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

• Squeaking or Instability:
  • Ensure all assembly hardware (bolts, screws) are fully tightened.
  • Verify that the center support legs are properly positioned and making firm contact with the floor.
  • Check that slats are evenly spaced and securely attached to the frame.
• Headboard Wobbles:
  • Confirm that the headboard attachment bolts are securely fastened to the side rails.
  • Ensure the headboard is correctly aligned with the chosen height setting.
• Mattress Sags:
  • Verify that the total weight on the bed does not exceed the 408.23 kg (900 lbs) limit.
  • Check for any broken or displaced slats.
