Step 1: Unpack and sort the parts.

Once you have all of your tools and materials, unpack the bed frame and sort the parts into piles. Make sure you have all of the pieces before you begin assembly.

Step 4: Attach the headboard.

The headboard is the piece that goes at the head of the bed. It is usually attached to the side rails with bolts. Attach the headboard to the side rails, making sure that it is centered.

Step 5: Attach the footboard.

The footboard is the piece that goes at the foot of the bed. It is usually attached to the side rails with bolts. Attach the footboard to the side rails, making sure that it is centered.

Step 6: Level the bed.

Once the bed is assembled, use a level to make sure that it is level. If the bed is not level, adjust the legs until it is.
