Information

The 130mm Hook-in Style Connectors are the preferred method of connected bed frames with side rails greater than 100mm.  There are no bolts or nuts to tighten and the Hook-in parts simply slot into place in the Striking Plates. Gravity and use of the bed will tighten the grip so that they won't come loose.  However for future storage or transport reasons the 130mm Connectors can be knocked apart quite easily.  The 4 Striking Plates are not 'handed' and can go in any corner and are usually fitted to the head rail and tail rail.  The 4 Hook-in parts are 'handed' in that there is a Left Hand pair and a Right Hand pair.  These are usually fitted to the side rails.  See the Specifications tab for more detailed information.  Lay out the 8 components in the desired position before commencing any assembly.  A hardware mechant will advise on the screw gauge, screw head size & type and length as this will vary depending on the construction of your bed frame.  32 screws are required in total for a set of 8 pieces.
