Position the cabinet against the wall where it is to be mounted. Make sure that it is square.
Locate all the studs that are behind the cabinet. Mount the cabinet to wood studs with heavy
duty 3"-4" wood screws. It is helpful to set the platform in the cabinet to check for square
before mounting all the "L" brackets. To do this, attach 2 - "L" brackets to the top of the cabinet
- one on the left and one on the right and secure to the wall with just 1 screw on each side.
Follow the instructions below for attaching the platform and close the bed to check that
everything is square. (Caution! Do not operate the bed until it is completely secured to the
wall.) If it is, then secure firmly into all studs possible. If it not, then pull the bed out and either
reposition the top of cabinet left or right into the studs or shim the cabinet as needed. The wall
bed must be mounted with large heavy duty screws with the "L" brackets on top of the Top
Stretcher or through the Top Back Stretcher, or both. 2 to 4 additional screws should be put
into each stud through the Top Back Stretcher, the Middle Stretcher(Except for the Angled
Middle Stretcher) and the Bottom Stretcher. A twin should be attached to no less than two
studs, full and queen should be three studs or more. Securing the Bed Cabinet to any side
cabinets is also recommended for additional safety. Each of the Side Cabinets - if any - should
also be attached to the studs in the wall in the same way as the Bed Cabinet.
If you have a wall that does not have wood studs, then you must attach the Bed Cabinet
securely with the appropriate Anchors.
Proper installation & Usage procedures must be followed to prevent
possible risk of injury or death! Wallbeds must be mounted properly and
securely to the studs in the wall as per instructions. When operating the
wallbed make sure that there is no one in or near the unit. When opening the
wallbed make sure there is no one under it and when closing the wallbed
make sure that all hands and extremities are clear of any "pinch" points.
