Guide to Choosing a Bed Frame

We produce several types of bed frames. Here is an abridged list, along with a few definitions, of the different options available while selecting the perfect bed frame.

Type of frame

Regular frame: if you have a mattress/box spring set only, or if you install a headboard only.
Headboard / footboard frame: if you install a headboard and a footboard.
Low profile frame: this frame lowers your bed by 3", compared to a regular frame.

Type of attachment

Nuts & bolts: allows for a more precise adjustment than an interlock frame.
Interlock: allows for an easier and quicker assembly of your bed frame.

Type of legs

Long metal glide: Recommended for hardwood and laminated floor Our sturdier foot Plastic bottom will not mark flooring Standard height: 7 1/8'' from the floor	Short metal glide: Ideal to lower the bed Standard height: 5 1/2'' from the floor
Rug caster : Allows to move the bed and clean underneath Standard height: 7 1/4'' from the floor Height with low profile frame: 4 ½'' from floor	Plastic glide: Standard height: 7 1/8'' from the floor
