Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before assembly. Ensure a safe working environment.

  1. Assembly: Requires two people. Keep children and pets away during assembly.
  2. Inspect parts: Check for damage before assembly; do not use damaged parts.
  3. Tool use: Use provided hex key; ensure bolts are fully tightened.
  4. Stability: Verify footboard is securely attached to bed frame before use.

WARNING! Failure to properly assemble and secure footboard may result in instability or injury. Ensure all bolts are tightened securely.

Assembly Instructions

Assemble footboard before attaching to bed frame.

  1. Attach side rails: Align left side rail with pre-drilled holes on footboard panel. Insert 2 bolts with washers and tighten with hex key. Repeat for right side rail.
  2. Secure mounting brackets: Attach one L-shaped bracket to the inside top of each side rail using 2 bolts per bracket. Ensure brackets face inward.
  3. Check alignment: Ensure footboard stands upright and all connections are square.
  4. Final tightening: Go over all bolts and ensure they are fully tightened.

CAUTION! Do not overtighten bolts, as this may strip threads. Assemble on a soft surface to avoid scratching parts.

Installation with Bed Frame

Attach assembled footboard to compatible IKEA bed frame (e.g., SAGSTUA series).

  1. Position bed frame: Place bed frame in desired location, ensuring headboard is already installed if applicable.
  2. Align footboard: Lift assembled footboard and align mounting brackets with corresponding slots or holes at the foot end of the bed frame.
  3. Secure footboard: Insert remaining bolts through brackets into bed frame. Tighten securely with hex key.
  4. Stability check: Gently shake footboard to ensure it is firmly attached and does not wobble.

Tip: For easier installation, tilt bed frame slightly or have one person hold footboard while another secures bolts.
