Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Assembly of the Louis Bed Frame involves connecting the side rails, footboard, and headboard, then placing the wooden slats. It is recommended to have two people for assembly due to the weight of the solid wood components. Ensure all fixings are tightened securely but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the wood.
Compatibility:
This bed frame is designed to accommodate standard mattress sizes. The Double size is suitable for a 4ft6 (135cm) mattress, and the King size for a 5ft (150cm) mattress. The wooden slats provide a solid base, meaning a box spring is typically not required, though compatibility with specific mattress types (e.g., memory foam) should be considered based on mattress manufacturer recommendations.
Care:
- Wood Finish: Clean the white painted wood surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Rattan Headboard: Dust regularly with a soft brush or a dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring it dries quickly. Avoid excessive moisture.
- General Maintenance: Periodically check that all screws and fixings are secure.
- Placement: Position the bed away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent discolouration or damage to the materials.
