7" Bed Bolts secure bed-rails to head and footboards. Use on wood and rope beds where tendon end of bed rail slips into mortise cut into bed post. Our bed bolts are strong, made of heavy steel. Once installed, these bed bolts draw wooden bed-posts and bed-rails tightly together, creating a strong rigid joint. The overall size is 7 inches, providing generous length to secure bed frames.
Originally bed bolts were used on rope beds in the 1700's - 1800's. Beds from this time frame had rails with short wooden pegs, These pegs were placed in a row along the top length of each rail. A rope was wound in and out around pegs. The rope created a mesh-like support for a feather "tick", the forerunner of the mattress.
