Buying a Used Bed Frame: What to Check

A bed frame has one reputation to overcome: the squeak. It almost always traces back to bolts that worked loose at the joints over years of use, not a fault in the frame itself. That's the first thing handled on every used bed frame here: joints tightened, worn or missing hardware replaced, and the whole frame reassembled properly before it goes back up. It's the reason a refurbished frame at a discount price tends to outlast a cheap new flat-pack one.

The second thing to sort out is what your mattress needs underneath it. Older frames were built around a box spring. Platform frames carry the mattress directly on slats, and a foam mattress in particular needs slats spaced close together with a center support leg. Check which type you're looking at, and whether the slats are included. Stock is one-off, so bed frame deals come and go with whatever arrives at our Austin showroom.

FAQ

Not once the hardware has been sorted. Squeaking comes from bolts loosening at the joints, and tightening or replacing that hardware is the first step on every refurbished bed frame here.

It depends on the frame. Platform frames hold the mattress on slats and need no box spring; older frames are usually built around one. With a foam mattress, look for slats spaced close together and a centre support leg.
