Know before you buy
Dovetail slats are designed to lock securely into the side rails, providing a more stable and durable foundation than standard drop-in slats. This construction prevents shifting and ensures your mattress remains properly supported over time.
The lag and bolt system is a heavy-duty connection method that pulls the side rails tightly against the headboard and footboard. While it requires a wrench to tighten, it creates a much more rigid frame than hook-on systems and eliminates the common squeaking associated with loose joints.
Yes, the Amish Mission Antique Bed is available in a variety of wood species and stain options beyond the featured Quarter-Sawn White Oak and Michael’s Cherry finish. This allows you to tailor the piece to match your existing bedroom furniture.
The headboard stands at 52 3/4 inches tall. We recommend measuring from the floor to the bottom of your window sill to ensure the headboard will clear the opening without obstructing your view or light.
Yes, this bed is designed to be used with a standard box spring or foundation to provide the necessary height and support for your mattress. The dovetail slats are positioned to hold a foundation securely in place.
