I have a king size bed with 3 wood slats supported by a wood stick in the middle of each slat. Can this be used to replace the wood sticks?

Yes I bought these to use in addition to my wood sticks because I didn't have enough support with just the wood sticks works great!

Yes, in fact, I have that exact setup and that's exactly what I used these for. You'll need to buy 3 (obviously). They work great, no more support sticks getting out of alignment!

Yes you can do this - I had same situation and I just added two of these between the center stick and the edge of the frame - giving me 9 total supports. I found that the middle stick was on the problem - it was too much room to the left and the right of the middle stick.

Yes this is perfect replacement for the wood sticks. It is best to screw it on the wood slabs. Yet another cost effective method is to buy a thick piece of wood and cut into 3 pieces with similar height of your original wood sticks. Another is to put stacks of hardback book under each slab to hold it up.

You must have meant a king size bed frame. That is pretty much what I did with this item. I connected a full size headboard to a queen size bed frame. This item allowed me to use the original bolts and nuts to attach it to both the bed fame and the headboard. It isn't real sturdy this way but it works fine for aesthetic purposes.

I bought mine for a trundle bed (which has a wooden base), not sure slats would support the 6 " thickness of this mattress. Why not add a 1/4 " piece of plywood for added support. A friend of mine spent the night on that mattress and wants to buy one for her bed.

Hi, I purchased this item for my queen size bed and it works great. I had to extend the slats out, so they will definitely work for your full size. I have a platform bed with wooden slats and purchased this item for additional support. It works very well.

I used these brackets with a queen headboard and king bed with hook brackets for the headboard and to be honest it does move a bit. There really isn't any alternative if you want to combine mismatched beds and headboards. The weight of your headboard will actually be an advantage and may move less than mine. I'd say do it!

No, just any support will do. Slats on a frame, closely spaced, or, just any type of solid support.

NO, This center support is not designed to work with beds that have wooden sides rails. Wood type side rails usually hook into the matching wood headboard and wood footboard. The wooden side rails often include a wooden lip on the inside of the rails where wooden or steel center support slats can be securely fastened with wood screws. Please feel to contact us for help with this type of center support. (Doug Belleville STL Beds Manager)

I bought this for an old wooden bed that used slats. They were lost, so I bought wider wood ( 6 ", I think) from Menards and used more pieces so that they were closer together and worked pretty much like a platform. No box spring. Enjoy your mattress!

I have one pkg/2 slats on my queen size bed and it works perfectly. It feels very sturdy. Much better than the 3 wooden ones that came with the bed. I don't think we'll be breaking this one lol

Yes i dont see why not. You may need a few more of the clips that screw to the under side of the wood if you are using all the hangers. I have to say thjs is a very cool and easy system

The support rails are wood, and unfortunately, not very sturdy; if the company had only used a true 2x4 it would have been strong enough, but they used two 1x2s which are just not strong enough -- my wife and I (350#together) felt the bed sagging the 1st night. For our king size bed, I added several slats, and had to put support posts under both support rails. Plus King size mattress warranties require a 5th foot, which this bed does not come with. I really like the bed, but one should be prepared to add their own supports once it arrives.

I cannot think of a reason why they would not work as well or even better on a small bed as opposed to a large king bed like ours. Our king bed rails are attached with this hardware and we have had no problems. However, our king bed has a platform for the support of the mattress(no box spring) and the plat form has 5 support posts.

These units are designed to go on wooden support slats under the box spring not on the box spring itself. Replace your metal support slats with wooden slats and you could use these.

I used this to replace two twin box springs on my king sized full frame (wooden head, foot boards and side rails) bed. The original system used slats so I wasn't sure it would fit inside the frame but I took a chance. I am hoping my experience will help you decide if this frame will work for you. All of the frame legs except for two fit easily within the original bed as they are a couple inches inboard. However, the two center legs would not. It was necessary to notch the original bed side rails in these two places with a reciprocating saw to fit the new frame within the original bed.

Yes, that should work. We have a king size bed and we used 3 wedges to fit across the entire width.
