Assembling a luxury bed with a lot of furniture assembly instructions

For a child to grow strong and healthy, he needs normal living conditions. One of these conditions is the correct organization of the sleeping area. However, children's beds are usually sold in stores unassembled. Let's figure out how to properly assemble such furniture, what tools are needed and what to pay attention to during assembly. Instructions are given for assembling different types of beds: playpen, transformer, rocking chair, pendulum, bunk, pull-out and hinged.

Luxury bed assembly diagram

I've always liked convertible bedroom furniture. The available space under the mattress allows you to put a lot of things into the bed frame; this replaces a closet or chest of drawers, which is important for a small bedroom. I decided to make a double bed with a lifting mechanism myself.

I have been making furniture in my small workshop for a long time. Having the appropriate equipment and a large set of tools made solving my problem much easier. After a short search in the media, I decided on a bed design with a lifting mechanism and gas shock absorbers.

On Tuesday, Alice responded to a follower who claimed it was her choice to become a stay at home mother and allow Ioan to work.

She said: 'I did NOT make that choice. Two actors cannot both work because it's impossible to work in the same city. Just like two war-reporters or two overseas volunteers. I accepted to step down cos he earned more.

I realized he was sitting next to a young girl I'd never seen before. She was tagged in the post @iambiancawallace. Then I got that feeling. The feeling nobody in a relationship — even one that's seen better days - wants to feel: My God. They are a couple. Pictured: Ioan and Bianca together in an Instagram post

'It was hard. Really hard. I felt I was doing my bit for the family. every time I came to near breaking I told myself I would get back out there once they were older and that at least my husband was getting the opportunity to do the stuff he wanted.

Tools

First I prepared the tool. Everything you need to make a bed with a lifting mechanism with your own hands is included in the following list.

• Screwdriver for fastening furniture base frame parts.
• Tape measure and metal ruler for marking MDF sheets.
• Drill for drilling holes in metal parts of lifts.
• Pencil for marking.
• Drills for wood and metal.
• Drill and key for confirmations for assembling fragments of the bed frame.
• Iron for edging furniture tape.
• Jigsaw for cutting MDF.
• Clamps (2 pcs.) for fixing housing parts when assembling the housing.
• Hacksaw for cutting boards to required sizes.
• Knife for removing protruding parts of furniture edge strips.
• Set of wrenches and sockets.

Materials

I purchased the materials needed to make a bed with a lifting mechanism at a building materials supermarket according to the list:

• confirmations – 8 pcs.;
• self-tapping screws 25 mm – 20 pcs.;
• furniture corners (50 × 50 mm) – 4 pcs.;
• metal corner (32 × 32 mm) – 1.4 m;
• MDF sheet 2440 × 1830 × 30 mm;
• fiberboard sheet – 2440 × 1830 mm;
• edged board 1600 × 150 × 20 mm;
• inset frame for a mattress (orthopedic base on a metal frame);
• furniture legs – 6 pcs.;
• edge furniture tape – 10 m;
• gas shock absorbers (425 mm from 800 N) – 2 pcs.;
• metal strip (50 × 3 mm) – 1.3 m;
• PVA glue - tube;
• bolts, washers, nuts – m 6;
• metal bushings (10/16 mm) – 8 pcs.

The entire process of assembling a 160 x 200 bed with a lifting mechanism with your own hands is outlined in the following instructions.

Interesting fact

There are three types of cribs with a pendulum system: with transverse swing, longitudinal movement and universal. Despite the fact that transverse motion sickness seems more common, longitudinal motion sickness is more beneficial for the child’s health. In this case, the newborn's head will not dangle from side to side, which can negatively affect the vestibular system.

There is a special mechanism, powered by electricity, rocking the crib

The distance between the walls of the crib and the mattress should be no more than 2 cm so that the baby can roll over and move in a safe environment.

Pendulum mechanism with lever element

They stop using the crib when the child’s height reaches 80-90 cm and the baby can get out of it on his own.

Step-by-step instruction

The work was divided into several stages:

• preparation and assembly of MDF parts,
• installation of an inset frame under the mattress,
• production of lifting mechanisms,
• Assembling a bed frame with a lifting mechanism with your own hands.

Preparation and assembly of MDF parts

1. On a piece of paper I drew drawings of a bed with a lifting mechanism.

1. On a sheet of MDF with a pencil, using a tape measure and a metal ruler, I marked the future parts of the body.
2. The MDF sheet was cut into pieces convenient for cutting.
3. On the workbench I secured parts of the MDF sheet with clamps.
4. I used a jigsaw to cut out elements for assembling a bed frame 1600 x 2000 with a lifting mechanism.
5. The ends of all parts were wiped with a damp cloth.
6. Pressing the edge tape with an iron, I ironed all the ends except those facing the floor.
7. I set up a headboard (1664 × 772 mm), two side drawers (2054 × 296 mm), a back wall (1664 × 296 mm) and a cross board (150 × 1608 × 20 mm).
8. On the outside of the corner joints I drilled 2 holes for confirmations.
9. Installed the fastener using a Phillips screwdriver.
10. The heads of the confirmations were covered with plastic plugs using PVA glue.
11. Inside the 4 corners, I installed plastic corners with a screwdriver.
12. To ensure additional rigidity of the frame, I installed a transverse board, connecting it to the sidewalls with metal corners on screws.
13. The fiberboard sheet was cut with a jigsaw to dimensions of 2054 × 1664 mm.
14. The assembled frame was placed on its side. I secured the fiberboard bottom sheet with screws around the entire perimeter of the bed.
15. I drilled holes in the bottom corners of the frame and in the middle of the frame. I inserted legs into them. Plastic supports ensure easy movement of furniture on the floor. When cleaning a room wet, the legs prevent the MDF from coming into contact with the wet floor.

Installation of an inset frame under a mattress

I bought the insert frame disassembled, which is convenient for transporting it in transport. Following the instructions, I assembled the retractable base without much difficulty. To do this you needed a wrench and a screwdriver.

Manufacturing of lifting mechanisms

Not everyone can make lifting mechanisms themselves. They can be purchased assembled at a construction supermarket. I decided to make the lifts myself. I made the lifts according to the drawing.

Possible difficulties

Of course, professionals with extensive experience in assembling various types of furniture can easily handle assembling beds with a lifting mechanism. But beginners in this matter may encounter some difficulties, which can be found in the table.

Remember a few more important points:

• defects of any nature (chips, cracks) that were the result of self-installation of the lifting mechanism are not covered by warranty;
• the time spent on doing the work on your own will not be compensated by anyone;
• If the lift soon breaks down, the costs of its repair will not be compensated if it is proven that the breakdown was the result of little experience in the matter of self-installation of such units.

We will also demonstrate the step-by-step assembly of a bed with a lifting mechanism according to the instructions in the video below. After watching it, you will definitely not have any difficulties in your work.

Labor and cost

The amount of working time spent on making the bed is shown in the following table.

Taking into account the time spent on purchasing, transporting materials and work interruptions, the production of this furniture took me 3 days.

I recorded all the costs for purchasing the necessary materials in a notebook. They made up:

• hardware (confirmations, bolts, nuts, washers, bushings, screws) – 100 rubles;
• furniture corners - 20 rubles;
• steel corner 32 × 32 × 1400 mm – 20 rubles;
• MDF sheet 2440 × 1830 x 30 mm – 2800 rub.;
• fiberboard sheet 2440 × 1830 mm – 200 rubles;
• furniture legs (6 pcs.) – 60 rubles;
• edge furniture tape (10 m) – 70 rubles;
• two gas shock absorbers – 2000 rubles;
• edged board – 50 rub.

I took this bed to the dacha. And for my bedroom I made another model, slightly different in the width of the body. I assembled a new bed with lifts with my own hands, measuring 180 × 200 cm. This time I made the body from laminated chipboard. I placed thin foam rubber and covered the outer surfaces of the body with eco-leather. I did this using a stapler. It turned out very beautiful and inexpensive.

For many people, purchasing furniture is a significant event. Headsets are not purchased every day; you want them to last longer and be comfortable. Most people try to assemble furniture at home on their own, but not everyone knows how to do it correctly. To better understand how to assemble a double bed, the instructions will help, which describe all the nuances, without which this process can become quite problematic.

Tips for the master

• The description of how to assemble a pendulum crib, instructions and photos may vary depending on the model of purchase. Carefully read the manufacturer's instructions included in the package.
• It is better to assemble the crib in the bedroom or nursery and not move it to other parts of the apartment.
• Keep the crib clean: remove dust and dirt regularly using water and a mild hypoallergenic detergent, laundry soap is suitable.
• If you find parts missing, consider ordering additional parts from the furniture manufacturer's website.
• It is better to assemble the crib the day before the baby arrives at home. Make sure that everything is ready for the arrival of the little man.

It is necessary to choose the right mattress for a crib

You need to choose a place for a baby cot

The crib must match the interior of the nursery

A pendulum crib, carefully assembled for the long-awaited baby with your own hands, tested for safety and reliability, will be an excellent place for your baby to relax and develop. In a nursery or bedroom it will become the center of attraction for parents and guests. In order for the crib to be a cozy nest and interior decoration, it is not necessary to call a professional furniture assembler. Thanks to the description of how to assemble a pendulum crib (instructions, photos), you yourself can easily achieve your intended goal.

Preparing parts and tools

Before you begin assembly, you need to check that all parts and components of the bed are present. Typically the standard set includes:

• headboard;
• longitudinal side frames (tsars);
• central frame;
• furniture corner (tension);
• a set of screws of the required size;
• additional orthopedic base.

Assembling a double bed is not easy to assemble, this process requires precision as well as attentiveness. You should start working strictly according to the instructions, which describe the assembly step by step and provide a list of the necessary tools and materials. First of all, you need to have self-tapping screws, screws, bolts. The tools you will need are screwdrivers with different tips, a screwdriver, and a wrench. To assemble new bed models, Euroscrews may be used, which require specific keys. A tape measure will not be superfluous, since you will have to measure parts of the parts and a level to measure the accuracy of the angles.

Before you start assembling the bed, you should remember the basic principles and requirements:

• It is inconvenient to assemble alone; it is better to do it together;
• the room should not be cramped, you need space to lay out large parts, take measurements and cut out;
• Bolts and screws should not be strongly secured at once; first, all parts must be assembled, and then only the fasteners should be secured;
• The assembly instructions need to be kept, sometimes you have to redo something.

Basic Workflows

Assembling a bed of any kind consists of important processes, each of which is described in detail in the instructions.

Base

Assembling a double bed begins with installing the base. The base border consists of three frames and a headboard. First of all, you need to connect these drawers together. In different models, there are suitable components for this in the form of corners, brackets, corner ties, connected to each other with screws and bolts. Next, we attach the legs; they can be screwed separately onto the frames or come as a set to the component parts.

Additional equipment

The bed is the main component of the bedroom set. Sleeping places are located both in small apartments and in large apartments. Today, furniture designers are offering newer and more modern models with various additional equipment.

A box for storing bedding and linen is quite a useful thing. With its help, the problem of disorder is solved; blankets and pillows will be kept in order. If we are talking about a retractable mechanism, such a box should not be very large. Today, manufacturers offer modern models that have a continuation of the front part of the headboard in the form of a bedside table. It looks very unusual, original and comfortable. On such a console you can put the necessary small things that you always want to have at hand - a phone, an alarm clock, a favorite book.

Super fashionable beds have different lighting. They can be located on the side of the bed, at the head of the bed and can be turned on with an inconspicuous button. These devices can easily replace bulky floor lamps and wall lamps. They have built-in energy-saving lamps that will last a long time, and their consumption will be minimal.

Pendulum crib: caring for the baby and his parents

A crib with a pendulum system, unlike other models, is equipped with a mechanism for rocking the child to sleep. This function will be of great help to the parents of the newborn in the first months of his life at home. This option is preferable when mom and dad deliberately decided not to accustom the baby to rocking in their arms or the parents have health problems. In addition, young mothers get tired of having to go to the crib at night every time the child wakes up. Here a pendulum crib comes to the rescue of parents. All you have to do is push the smart design with your hand and it will begin to sway rhythmically, putting the restless baby to sleep.

Pendulum crib with drawers

Pendulum crib with chest of drawers and drawers

The indisputable advantage of the pendulum is the sensitivity of the mechanism to light touches, thanks to which the baby can set the crib in motion. This will ensure a good night for the baby and allow the mother to rest.

The mechanism for setting the pendulum in the crib in motion

It should be noted that, if necessary, it is quite easy to make a pendulum crib into a traditional stationary crib. You only need to lock the system with clamps, which, as a rule, come with the furniture.

Among the additional functions of some models, it should be noted the ability to adjust the height of the bed of the crib and the front wall, drawers for linen, and soft sides. The best option is a design with three levels of bottom height, which can be used in accordance with the growth and development of the baby. The front wall can be not only retractable, but also completely removable. This will allow you to move the baby crib closer to the parent's bed, then the baby will smell the mother's scent, who can quickly feed him and put him to bed. The laundry drawer will allow the mother to quickly change diapers and baby clothes, in addition, you can store toys or a first aid kit there. It is necessary to provide free space in the room for pulling out the linen drawers of the crib. Fabric sides not only play an aesthetic role, but also keep the baby safe.

Common mistakes

How to assemble a double bed according to the instructions is not an easy question; even if you follow all the instructions, you can make a number of mistakes that can lead to loss of time and incorrect assembly of the product. Typical errors include:

• Beginners should not start by assembling massive and large parts. You need to start small, and there will be fewer mistakes;
• before starting furniture assembly, the number of parts and fasteners is not checked against the instructions; parts of the furniture are not examined for chips, scratches, or damage;
• inattentive study of the instructions can negatively affect the assembly process - the parts may be similar to each other, which will lead to their incorrect connection;
• Fasteners from the set may be similar to each other, but used in different connections due to their diameter. And if in one case a long fastener can be used instead of a short one, then a short fastener will not be suitable for the role of a long fastener;
• by collecting parts on a carpet or any other soft surface, you can ensure that some of the parts get lost;
• Most of the bed parts are made of MDF, and if you make holes with a drill, the panels can burst. Bolts and screws are easily screwed in with a screwdriver;
• Failure to follow the assembly sequence according to the instructions will result in the double bed with a lifting mechanism being assembled incorrectly;
• If you do not glue some parts together with special glue, over time there will not be the required density between them.

Having even a little experience working with furniture and following the necessary instructions, you can assemble a double bed with your own hands. Such a sleeping place will delight its owners for a long time, providing a comfortable sleep.

Suitable location for the superstructure

So, we’ve sorted out the materials, now we need to think about how our mezzanine will be located and what needs to be taken into account in order to avoid mistakes when assembling and placing it.

In order for the mezzanine to be used harmoniously, you need to choose a convenient place for it

As already mentioned, the mezzanine is located under the ceiling in any of the rooms in the apartment, but if it is a corridor, then the most frequently used and convenient place is above the entrance door to the kitchen. When installing the structure, consider some points that you should pay special attention to:

• be sure to think through the design, calculate the dimensions and amount of material required, ideally, create a drawing of the product;
• the depth of the product is also an important point that must be taken into account; if you make the cabinet too deep, it will be very inconvenient for you to get everything you need from it;
• if, nevertheless, you decide to make a fairly deep cabinet, then it is more convenient if you make it double-sided;
• make sure that the walls on which the box will be mounted are strong enough to withstand the load;
• for safety reasons for you and your household, the base material must be durable;
• the mezzanine should fit harmoniously into the overall layout and design of the room;
• the shelf under the ceiling should not interfere with access to the window and the free opening of the door above which it is located;
• be sure to find the location of the electrical wiring in the walls so as not to damage it during installation;
• design the structure so that there is no free space between the top of the drawer and the ceiling, otherwise this space will not be functional, only dust will accumulate in it.

There should be no gaps between the ceiling and the storage area
