Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
Setting up your Atlas Single Bed is a straightforward process, though it requires self-assembly. All necessary components, hardware, and an instruction manual are included in the packaging.
- Unpack Components: Carefully unbox all parts and lay them out, cross-referencing with the parts list in the manual.
- Assemble Frame: Follow the step-by-step instructions to connect the headboard, footboard, and side rails using the provided bolts and tools.
- Install Slats: Once the frame is rigid, carefully place the sprung slats into their designated holders, ensuring they are evenly spaced and securely seated.
- Final Tightening: After full assembly, go back and securely tighten all bolts and screws. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.
> Info needed: [Estimated assembly time, recommended tools (e.g., Allen key included)]
Compatibility
This Atlas Single Bed is specifically designed to accommodate UK standard single (3ft) size mattresses only. Using a non-standard size mattress may result in an improper fit, affecting both comfort and the bed's structural integrity.
Care & Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your bed frame:
- Cleaning: Wipe the steel frame with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these can damage the epoxy powder-coated finish.
- Regular Checks: Periodically (e.g., every 6 months), inspect all bolts and fixings. Tighten any that may have loosened with use to maintain the bed's stability and prevent creaking.
- Protection: When moving the bed, lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the frame and your flooring. Avoid placing heavy, sharp objects directly on the frame to prevent scratches.
