Setup / Assembly Instructions
Assembly is required for this triple bunk bed. It is recommended that two adults assemble this product. Each part is numbered for straightforward assembly. All necessary tools are included.
Step 1: Unpack and Identify Components
Carefully unpack all components from the boxes. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface (like a carpet) to prevent scratches. Identify each part using the provided parts list and ensure all hardware is present.
Step 2: Assemble the Base Frames
Begin by assembling the base frames for the two lower twin beds. Connect the side rails to the headboards and footboards using the provided bolts and nuts. Do not fully tighten bolts until all components are loosely assembled.

Step 3: Install Bed Slats
Once the base frames are assembled, insert the metal slats into the designated slots or attach them to the support rails. These slats provide crucial support for your mattress and eliminate the need for a box spring.

Converting to Three Individual Twin Beds
