How do the slats go together?

The slats are made of two pieces that telescope to adjust to the bed width. The foot supports are threaded so you can adjust the height.

I love these slats. You can adjust to bed width. Easy to put together, slats slide together and legs are threaded for adjusting heights. Mine are screwed into the cleats on the side railings. Screws come with these, and you can place them where you think you might need the best support. I spaced mine out evenly. AND YOUR MATTRESS WILL NOT SAG IN THE MIDDLE......

Attach them to the center of the slats if they are wooden to increase sturdiness

You will need to be able to screw (self drilling and threading metal screws) or drill holes and bolt the metal slats to the frame, but other than that, it should work fine.

I have slats on my sleigh bed and the way this is constructed it supports the foam mattress on top on this hunky boards foundation. The frame is very well constructed and the top is a thin solid wood to fully support the mattress. The framing underneath is solid to work on slats

The slats are relatively close together (4-5 inches), but I think it's still recommended to have bunk boards. If you don't have a bunk board, over a period of time the mattress could sag between the slats.

The slats are screwed on. They are 12 inches above the floor. The entire unit must be assembled.

It would be a lot of work. Each slat rests on the side frame. One wider long piece of wood under it and then a second piece on top of that (narrower) with a niche carved out to position each slat. It would be easier to simply add a few extra slats.

The slats are wide apart. So I bought a compressed board at lowes for $20, had it cut to fit the gaps and put mattress on it. It saves the extra height of the box springs

The slats are bolted on as part of the building process. The slats sit about a foot off the floor. I love the daybed! It was very easy to put together and looks great!

Yes - they are meant to go together. However, when we assembled it, there were gaps where it attached to the front poles and the back poles so the wind comes whistling in. I have see other brands already assembled where they looked weather tight. Otherwise, it has been sturdy enough.

it does not come with slats. You need a box spring with this particular bed frame. Hope this helps

The slats are made of wood and there are 13 , I have no boxspring and they connect in the middle and on the rails by plastic fittings, however, they included 1 metal peg that attaches to the middle rail to help with load bearing,my floor is hardwood and the bed collapsed when I was laying down (I'm 220 lbs 6'1) it collapsed several times so I had to put cinder block under the bed, and it's all good now, kind of a pain but it looks great in my city loft for the price. hope this helps, -Justin

Not designed to go together that way. Can be done though, I did so since we needed the the two beds we bought to face each other.

Sort of. There is a slat (much like the ones on the sides) running along the bottom that connects the ends (much like the sides).

The slats are only a couple of inches apart and work great with futon mattresses. I have a floppy latex mattress on it, too and it works wonderfully. Hope that helps.

It comes with slats that are all connected and spread out under the mattress. They are about half a inch apart. It has held up extreamly well, and my son is ruff on it.

There are no slats with this design. On the inside of the bed there are a couple crossmembers & supports for 2 big sheets of PDF board that support the mattress. I've had no sagging or issues with mine at all.
