Before beginning assembly please take a few moments to read the instructions carefully, understanding each
step before beginning. Likewise, please also ensure that the hardware package contains the items as described here. NOTE: a ratcheting wrench or socket can be a considerable time saver during the assembly process.
Tools Needed: ½” wrench or socket, hammer and standard (flat) screwdriver

CAUTION: We recommend you have an assistant ready to help during the assembly process.
Step 1. With the headboard and footboard lying down, tap a lag shield into each of the 24 holes.
Step 2. Stand the headboard and footboard upright. Support them so that they do not fall over.
Step 3. Attach half log mattress support side rails (these have the full-length steel rails attached) to the lower
portion of the headboard and footboard using the supplied lag bolts and washers. Tighten fully with the ½”
socket or wrench.
Step 4. With the help of an assistant align top hole in metal bracket with the third hole down from the top of
the wooden post. Insert lag bolt and washer through metal bracket into hole, fastening one side of the Bunkie
board to the headboard and footboard. Do not fully tighten lags at this time as the assembly must swing
upward to allow securing of the other side.
Step 5. Swing the opposite side of the Bunky board upward so that the Bunky Board is horizontal. Repeat
step 4 above. Secure this side with the supplied lag bolts and washers. Do not fully tighten at this time.
Step 6. Attach the two top rails to the headboard and footboard with the supplied lags and washers. Tighten
these bolts and those installed in step 5 fully with ½” socket or wrench.
