I ordered a twin bed set that came with a bed frame and brackets. I put the frame together but don't understand why I need the brackets? Are they to connect a headboard? I don't have a headboard, so do I still need the brackets?thanks!
headboards come with their own fixings attached to them .The bottom end of these two (normally wooden ) bits have slots about 1cm wide and 10 cm long to allow for fixing. If your two brackets have bolt like things with screw threads then they will fit in one end of your bead.Might be the bottom!! These would then be used to tighten up on the slots in the headboard to keep it in place. If you have 4 brackets then these are designed to go in each corner of the bed frame to strengthen it. If only two And you don't want headboard now you can still screw them into the end so you don't loose them in case you ever change your mind Hope this helps
What are brackets for a bedframe for? for a bedframe. learn grammar.
