Assembly is required for this bunk bed. It is recommended that two adults assemble the bed. Estimated assembly time is under 20 minutes with the provided instructions and tools.
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Verify all listed components and hardware are present.
- Assemble Lower Bed Frame: Attach the side rails to the headboard and footboard for the full-size lower bed. Secure all connections with the provided hardware, but do not fully tighten yet.
- Install Lower Bed Slats: Place the full-size slats onto the support rails of the lower bed. Ensure they are evenly spaced and secured according to the detailed assembly guide included in your package.
- Assemble Upper Bed Frame: Repeat the process for the twin-size upper bed, attaching side rails to the headboard and footboard.
- Install Upper Bed Slats: Place the twin-size slats onto the support rails of the upper bed.
- Attach Ladder and Guard Rails: Securely attach the ladder to the upper bunk. Install the full-length guard rails on all open sides of the upper bunk. Ensure they are firmly fastened.
- Stack Bunks: Carefully lift and place the assembled twin upper bunk onto the full lower bunk, aligning the connection points. Secure the two bunks together using the designated hardware.
- Final Tightening: Once all components are in place and aligned, systematically tighten all bolts and screws. Do not overtighten.

4. Safe Operation and Usage

- Top Bunk Age Restriction: The top bunk is intended for use by children aged six years and older.

5. Care and Maintenance
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and structural integrity of your bunk bed.
- Cleaning: Wipe the bed frame with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth followed by immediate drying is acceptable. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or polishes that may damage the painted finish.
- Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) inspect all bolts, screws, and connections. Tighten any that have become loose. Do not overtighten.
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid placing the bed in direct sunlight or near heat sources, as this can cause fading or warping of the wood. Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity.
- Moving the Bed: When moving the bed, always lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the frame and floor.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Lexicon Bunk Bed, refer to the following common solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Bed feels wobbly or unstable. | Loose hardware connections. | Inspect all bolts and screws. Tighten any loose connections. Ensure the bed is on a level surface. |
