Know before you buy
The platform version features eight 1-inch thick solid poplar slats designed to support a mattress directly without a box spring. The mattress/box spring option uses four hardwood slats intended to provide a foundation for a traditional box spring and mattress set.
The Natural Cherry and Walnut beds are finished with a traditional hand-rubbed linseed oil, which highlights the natural grain and allows the wood to age gracefully. The Maple beds are finished with a satin urethane, providing a more durable, low-sheen protective layer.
The bed uses a steel quick-latch system to connect the side rails to the headboard and footboard, making assembly straightforward. While the pieces are solid hardwood and heavy, the latch mechanism is designed for a secure, tool-free connection.
Yes, Maple Corner Woodworks offers customization options for dimensions. You can contact the manufacturer to adjust the size to ensure the bed fits perfectly within your specific bedroom layout.
The bed is built using traditional mortise and tenon joinery in the headboard, which is one of the strongest methods for wood furniture construction. Because it is handcrafted from solid hardwoods and backed by a lifetime guarantee, it is designed to last for generations.
