This heavy-duty hardware kit enables the creation of a reliable full-size horizontal wall bed, offering effortless transition between day and night modes.

FAQs
Does this kit include the wood needed for the bed?
No, this kit includes only the mechanical hardware (gas struts, pivot hinges, legs). You must provide the wood, plywood, and mattress.
Can I use a memory foam mattress with this kit?
Yes, as long as the mattress thickness is between 6 and 10 inches and fits the 75 x 54-inch dimensions.
Is this bed safe for daily use?
Yes, the mechanism is tested for 50,000 cycles, making it suitable for frequent or daily deployment.
What tools are required for installation?
You will typically need a drill, level, tape measure, socket set, and standard woodworking hand tools.
Can this be installed on a drywall-only wall?
No, it must be securely mounted into wall studs or a solid masonry wall to support the weight of the bed and the user.
Troubleshooting
The bed does not stay closed.
Ensure the gas struts are properly tensioned and that the cabinet frame is perfectly level to prevent the bed from pulling away from the wall.
The mechanism feels stiff when lowering.
Check for obstructions in the pivot path and ensure the pivot bolts are not over-tightened. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Bed frame is uneven when folded down.
Verify that your DIY wooden cabinet is square and that the wall mounting brackets are firmly anchored into studs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that your wall studs are capable of supporting the weight of the bed frame. The kit is compatible with mattresses sized 75 x 54 inches (6-10 inches thick). When constructing the wooden frame, ensure all fasteners are tightened securely to the carbon steel hardware. For maintenance, periodically check the gas struts to ensure they remain free of dust and debris, and apply a light lubricant to the pivot points once per year to maintain silent operation. Always inspect the bed legs for proper floor contact to prevent wobbling.
