Step 1: Locate the two Side Boards.
If you purchased a Queen size bed
the Side Boards measure 85.25” long.
Full and Twin size Side boards will
measure 80.25” long. Then from the
small square cardboard box locate the
two Lift Mechanisms, hardware bags,
and springs.

HELPFUL HINT: You may find it easier to fit the hook
under the Tension Arm if you pry up the Arm Bracket with
a wooden wedge or similar device.
IMPORTANT! Be sure that holes
used on the Mounting Plate corre-
spond to the holes in the Tension
Arm and use the same number of
springs and the same configura-
tion on both Lift Mechanisms
Repeat Step 2 for Left Lift Mechanism.
The required number of springs in the Lift Mechanisms varies with the different weights of
mattresses. If you purchased your mattress with your bed from Wilding Wallbeds refer to the
chart to the right. This will also be a good reference point for mattresses not purchased with
your Wall bed.
Install the first spring in hole #2 for Queen and Full size beds and hole #3 for twin size on both the Mounting Plate and the
Tension Arm. Hook one end of the spring under the upturned edge of the Mounting Plate. Lay the spring down and slide it
under the matching hole in the Tension Arm. See illustration 1.
Continue by working down from,
hole 2 (Queen and Full size beds)
or hole 3, (for twin size), until you
have installed the required number of
springs.
NOTE: After you have completed installing and checking operation of your Wall
bed, you may find it necessary to add or remove springs to achieve the correct lift
effort of between 5 and 10 pounds.

IMPORTANT! Over tightening the nuts will
pull the head of the bolt too deeply into the
Side Board. Tighten only until the head of the
bolt is flush with the surface of the Side Board .
Step 3:
Install the Lift Mechanism to
the Side Board by inserting a 5/16 x 1
1/4” Tapered Allen head Bolt through
holes A, B, C and D from the outside
(countersunk holes) of the Side Board.
The bolt then goes through the cor-
responding holes of the Right Lift
Mechanism as illustrated. Thread on

Step: 7: Using a Stud Finder locate and mark the studs in your wall behind the
Bed Cabinet. Attach the “L” brackets to the top, back of the Bed Cabinet cor-
responding to where the studs are located. Now attach the “L” brackets to the
studs in the wall using six 2” wood screws. See illustration 6
IMPORTANT! King and Queen size wall beds
require 3 studs for proper anchoring. It is VERY
important that the bed be anchored securely to
the wall. If bed is not anchored properly the Bed
Cabinet will fall causing SERIOUS injury. For

HELPFUL HINT: the “Head Rail”
refers to the end that is closest to the
Bed Cabinet during assembly and
will be where your head is while
sleeping.
Note: Number of
face panels will vary
depending on bed
model. But will typi-
cally be either 2 or 4
Step 8: Locate the Front Panel(s) and
lay them on the floor FACE DOWN
(finished side). Position them in
front of where the Bed Cabinet was
installed in the last step and leave
enough room to work around them.
Note that the holes for bed handles
are arranged together and more away
from the wall the Bed Cabinet is
installed against.

Important note: It is critical to orient the Bed Face panels and the Mattress Rails in the next 5 steps correctly. All of the render-
ings (drawings) in the next 5 steps assume that you are looking away from the wall you just installed the Bed Cabinet against
in the previous step. There is a note under each of the following renderings indicating “your bed cabinet installed on this side”
which indicates that is where the Bed Cabinet is in relation to the face panels and rails.

Step 10: From hardware pack 3 locate the hardware shown above. Finger
tighten the hardware as shown in illustration 7 connecting the Foot Rail to the
Side Rail using the 4 hole corner bracket. Note the lower hole on each Side
Rail uses the Leg Stop with the longer screw (1 1/4” Machine). Repeat step
on the opposite side of the Foot Rail corner.

the seam of the face panels come together. In
this case you do not need to put a screw in
where it will wedge between two panels.

Step 15; Attach the Velcro Strap that is used for holding the
mattress in place while wall bed is closed. First remove one
of the 5/8” Pan head screws that attaches the rail to the Face
Panels on each Side Rail of the frame at about 18” from the
Foot Rail of the frame. Then put the removed screw through
the 3/4” Washer. Position the end of the Velcro over the
vacated screw hole on the rail and drive the screw through
the Velcro strap and back into the hole. Repeat the process
on the opposite Side Rail making sure that the Velcro Straps
oppose each other so they hook together in the middle.

Step 19: Brace one foot against the front
edge of the Side Board and using the 13”
length of PVC tubing provided, lever the Lift
Mechanism’s Tension Arm out and down
until you can secure the Arm Lock onto the
Hexagon Nut shown at right. BE SURE
THAT THE LOCK IS SECURED AGAINST
THE HEX NUT BEFORE RELEASING
THE TENSION ON THE LIFT MECHA-
NISM.
Helpful hint: As you start to draw the tension arm
down with one hand, use the other hand to posi-
tion the arm lock on top of the hex nut. Now as
the Tension Arm continues to be pulled down with
both hands, the Arm Lock will naturally drop into
place around the hex nut as illustrated.
WARNING: There is tremendous force involved in the next step, do not place hands be-
tween the front of the side boards and the tension arms as you set the mechanism.

Step 20: Stand the Bed face unit up on
its Head Rail end. Now with you and
your assistant on either side of the Bed
face unit lift until the # 3 bolt on the
Bed face unit is a few inches above the
slotted end of the Tension Arm on both
sides. Gently lower the Bed face unit
between the Tension Arms and seat the #
3 bolt into the slot at the end of the Ten-
sion Arms. Now start pulling the bed
face unit down and away from the Bed
Cabinet the Allen Key bolt head will
seat into the notch at the lower end of
the Tension Arms. Lower the bed unit
down and pull the Legs down so that
they are on the floor. Someone will need
to hold the bed unit down as it will want
to rise.
IMPORTANT! As instructed in step 16, Bolt #3 should be loose enough to slip into the notch at
the end of the Tension Arm See illustration below.

Page 14
Step 21: Insert a 5/16” x 1” Hex
Head bolt through hole #2 and tighten
a 5/16” Nylock nut onto the bolt. Now
tighten the nut and bolt in hole #3.
Repeat step 21 on the other side of the
bed unit.
Step 22: Slip the Mechanism Cover
over the Mechanism so that the tabs on
the cover fit into the notches provided.
Line up the hole with the barrel support
and anchor in place using the 3/16” x 1
1/4” wood screw provided
Repeat step on the other Mechanism.

Step 23: When the bed is closed check to see if the gap
on either side is the same. If it looks right skip this step.
If the gap is not right, meaning that the Bed Box is too
close to the side board or even touching it at the top on
one side it will need to be adjusted. The procedure will
require the bottom of the bed to be moved slightly to the
left or right depending on which top corner is too close.
If the Bed Face is too close on the top right side for
instance, the right side (bottom) will need to be slid to the
left slightly (See illustration 12). Have one person push
the bed at the bottom with his feet while the second person
pulls at the opposite bottom side.
Push bed
over at the
bottom to
align
Step 24: Place the crown mold on the bed as illustrated
and use the 1 1/4” screws to secure it in place. If you pur-
chased side cabinets apply crown mold to them as well.
Note: Dakota style bed does not have crown
molding.
Step 25: Place handles on bed using pre-
drilled holes in face panels.
Step 26: Anchor the Side Cabinet to the Bed by
first pre-drilling three 3/16” holes at the inside edge
of the side cabinet. Position the holes close to the
front edge of the Side Cabinet. One hole should be
near the top, one should be inside the drawer area
(remove drawer from cabinet to get to this one), and
the third should be at the bottom (open door if your
cabinet has door, or remove drawer at bottom) for
this hole. Now move the side cabinets next to the
bed and use three 1 1/4” Screws (located in a drawer
or on a shelf of the side cabinet) through pre-drilled
holes to anchor Side Cabinets to the Bed.
3/16” 3/16”
Note: Some bed models use a 3/4” thick (C shaped) flat piece as the
crown mold.
