CUSTOMER CARE
We have checked all parts to ensure they are free of damage. However timber is a natural, living product.
Occasionally timber can still be adjusting to humidity, for this reason a crack or stretch mark may appear after
the product has been packaged.
Strictly Beds and Bunks however have a FREE PARTS REQUEST

Clean out the Pre-drilled Holes
You have brought a solid pine product. During the drilling process
there may be sawdust still in the holes.
BEFORE you start assembly clear these holes with one of the bolts.
Push the bolt through each hole, this will dislodge any sawdust or
debris that could interfere with fixing the bed.

Locating the Dowel Rods
To keep the bed from rattling all the dowel holes have
been slightly mis-drilled by a couple of mm. When you
push parts together the dowels will straighten and pull
together to ensure a tight fit. Whenever you locate a
dowel on the hole NEVER push it all the way in, leave it
so it is loose and can be aligned with the second locating
hole.
Push them all the way in and they will not line up.
GLUE SACHET INCLUDED
We have included a sachet of glue.
THIS IS NOT TO BE USED with the dowel rods.
Open the sachet and empty into a plastic container. Whenever
you connect a confirmat bolt (D) or a connector bolt (B) into a
barrel bolt (c) dip the end of the bolt in the wood glue and
screw in as normal. This will act as a lock tight and prevent the
bolt from working loose.
Applying a Finish to the Beds
The bed can be used in a natural form. However if you are applying
a stain or finish we advise that you build the bed first. When you are
happy with your purchase then put a sheet under the product and
apply your stain/paint to the manufacturers recommendations.
NOTE: we are unable to accept the return, under any circumstance
once a finish has been applied. By painting the bed you have
deemed to accept the quality.
Corner Posts -
Make sure the WHITE Mark is facing
upwards and at the top when laid on
the floor

SAFETY NOTICE: WOODEN FLOORS
This bed uses support legs to ensure heavy duty use. If you are locating this bed on a
laminate or wooden floor the bed may move/slip when in use. This movement may
dislodge the support legs. You must therefore attach non-slip pads under each corner
post to prevent this movement. These also protect your floor. You can scan this QR

First Select the two headboard posts, lay
AL to the left andAR to the right. These
posts will have a white chalk marking,
these MUST be facing you and at the top
when laying on the carpet.
You will also see two headboard facias
marked Black PART 9 ( 4G), position
these as shown in PIC 1. Lay the long
inserts (PART 12) in between these
ready to join.
Pic 1
Place dowel rods in all the headboard inserts as
described, DO NOT PUSH ALL THE WAY IN. Now
locate the PART 9 facias and push in to create the
headboard. The dowels will straighten as they align.
First Build the Head Boards
NOTE** Locating the Dowel Rods
To keep the bed from rattling all the dowel holes have been
slightly mis-drilled by a couple of mm. When you push parts
together the dowels will straighten and pull together to
ensure a tight fit. Whenever you locate a dowel on the hole
NEVER push it all the way in, leave it so it is loose and can
be aligned with the second locating hole.
Push them all the way in and they will not line up.
NO YES
Now, remember to ensure the WHITE CHALK markings are
facing upwards locate the dowel rods to each corner post.
Again, do not push in the dowels all the way. Once in place
connect the head board to the corner post, you will again see
the dowels align as you tighten. Then fix using the bolts below.
Part 9 Blue (see page 5, FIG 3 or 4 for fixings)

Each corner post will have a white chalk marking, lay the post down and have the
markings facing you, at the top. BL goes to the left, BR goes to the right.
Part 13 Blue (see page 5, FIG 1 or 2 for fixings)
Now We Build the Footboard
Attach the two side rails
Firstly ensure there is no sawdust or debris in the access holes. Using a bolt push through to clear.
Now insert the dowel rods at all ends, do not push all the way in.
Make sure the WHITE MARKINGS on each headboard are facing inwards. Now start with the
headboard and connect each side rail to each corner post
Place the barrel bolt within the round access hole on the side rail. Now dip bolt B into the glue and
push through to connect to the barrel bolt. This side rail is designed not too move so the fixing is
tight. Then locate the footboard, again ensure the WHITE MARKINGS are facing inwards and
connect. (See page 5, FIG 5 for fixings
Attach the side rail support legs
If you have ordered a guest bed simply do not attach the side rail support leg to the front. If
you have ordered drawers still attach as instructed.
The centre leg will hover slightly off the floor, when
the bed is in use it will move down and support the
bed. This is to protect the leg if the bed moves.
It is important this leg is attached as it supports the
side rail. Measure a half way point on the side rail.
Place the support leg under the side rail from the
outside. Using two black screws attach from the
inside of the side rail. Note there is no access hole as
the screws are self threading
BL BR

Attach The Centre Rail
(Double/Kingsize Beds ONLY)
From the inside of the bed we need to attach metal brackets, one either end. These are fixed using
the small screws (L), these are fixed to bottom headboard facia. Using a tape mark a centre line
from each corner post, then measure and mark 55mm from the top of the BLUE Facia(13). Now
position the top of the bracket (J) just below this mark, attach with the small screw (L)
Attach the centre rail support leg
The centre leg is located under the
centre rail, in the centre. Simply
measure to the centre of the bed
and locate under the centre rail.
Using two black screws attach
from the side.
It is IMPORTANT that this is positioned correctly and remains in place while the bed is being
used, failure to fix will weaken the bed. This part is manufactured using recycled timber as the
component is out of sight. The centre leg will hover slightly off the floor, when the bed is in use
it will move down and support the bed. This is to protect the leg if the bed moves.
We Now need to attach the base slats.
You will have twelve extra wide base slats. Push the first slat tight
with the footboard corner posts, then using the base slat spacer block
evenly space out the remaining base slats. DO NOT SCREW IN
PLACE YET.
Now push the slats flush to the left hand side rail and screw in (do not
screw the right hand side yet). Now go to the right hand side and start
with the slat near the centre. Push the side rail in so the slat is flush,
then fix using the screw. This aligns the side rail. Now fix the
remaining base slats.
TIP:-When you have attached the base slats you will
have additional base slats screws. Out of the 12 slats
screw 4 of them directly into the centre rail. Using the
base slat screws simply drill through the top of the base
slat into the centre rail. This will further strengthen the
bed.
