To connect, slide bed hooks over pins, in slot in headboard and foot-board. Beds are easily dismantled or re-assembled as needed.

Bed Side Rails

• Mortise hook-plate into 3-1/2" high x 3/32" wide x 1-1/8"deep slot in each end of bed side rail. Secure to rail with 2 pins.

Bed Posts

• A slot 5" high x 3/32" wide x 1-3/8"deep is required in each bed post to receive a hook. If a slot, also known as a kerf, does not exist, it must be cut.
• Hooks hang on 2 Pins that are recessed into each headboard and foot-board post.
• If pins are not there, holes for pins should be drilled 19/64" in diameter, 2" on center. They should be inserted from the inside of the bed post thru the slot so that they do not show once the bed is assembled.

To remove old pins

• Drill small hole opposite pin in bed post.
• Then use a small punch tool to drive pin out original entry hole.
