If I have two twins with these headboards and push them together to try to make a king, will they be flush against each other or is there a gap?

I have a standard adjustable frame from Costco set up for twin size and I did bolt the headboard to the frame. The outside edges of the wooden legs are flush with the outside edges of the frame. The headboard juts out about a finger width more from the outside edges of the legs. I guess it will not work out if you bolted two headboards on two twin frames

I believe there will be a gap between the two mattresses. The headboard is several inches wider that the mattress. The bed frame attachments are centered on the head board. As a single its great.

Although it is not advertised as such, after having put ours together, I would BET that the solution is to buy two headboards and NOT add the extenders which you will use for your headboard when putting the footboard piece together. I don't know if you would then need to connect headboard and footboard to each other along the sides, but there should be a simple solution to that. We could not be happier with having ordered the headboard. Good luck.

The beds line up closely however there is a gap (not a sag) between them. This would not be as comfortable as sleeping on a single mattress however, very good mattresses would be suggested for the best comfort.

Yes, they are about flush. We have a baseboard but it is normal width and there is a gap about 1/8" between the table top and the wall. We do not find that to be a problem.

I see no reason why this would not work as these pieces are only required to match up with the position of the holes on the bed frame and headboard which are exactly the same size universally, twin to king. The pieces only fit the ends of the frame not the length of the frame. Incidentally, I have a spare set of these.if you'd like them. Message me here on Amazon or contact me via email at ASpriggs80@gmail.com. I'm happy to drop them in a bubble mailer and send them to you.

You will need to line up the headboard and extension legs, get a small piece of 2 x 4 and slightly tap it in using the 2 x 4 and a hammer. that's what I did and had no problem.

I believe so. I was going to do that, but the configuration of my son's room did not leave enough room. I think that the bottom of the headboard is flat to allow the head of the bed to sit up against it. They show the headboard with one of their beds.

Yes. The twin beds we pushed together have separate frames and headboards, and the bridge worked great. We did put an "overfilled" fluffy king size mattress pad over the the beds, and that made it perfect. Our guests really were not even aware they were on twin beds until we told them!

I purchased the headboards for twin beds in a guest room. I don't know if they have widths for calif king and regular king. 72 versus 78 inches could make a difference. You should measure carefully.

I have the same issue with a queen frame...I keep the mattress close to the headboard and have a much larger gap at the footboard. I honestly think that's the way this sleigh bed was designed. On the positive side, it's very easy to make the bed!

I believe two twins side by side equal a king size. You can put a spacer between them to bridge the gap and put a king size sheet over the whole thing. I haven't done this but read about it. On mine, the trundle seems to set up about one quarter inch lower, so I would use casters under its wheels if I wanted them exactly the same height.

I would assume so, but of course a division with mattresses. I needed these to have twin sized beds for triplets. They had outgrown two mattresses pushed together. One was always sleeping over the division between the mattresses...not so comfortable? If you were meaning hooking the frames together to make one big frame for king sized, I don't know about that as the middle would have no supports? I really forget how they hooked together to remember if that would work at all. Kathy

I only ordered a headboard and it was only $100 with no shipping or handling charges. Order what you want from the company and question them. I like my headboard, except with our king size mattress (which is 18" deep) there is a gap under the rail and pillows will go in it. I ordered a king size mattress wedge to go with mine and no longer have any problem with this.

I'm not sure. I have a twin and they work great. I really don't know if they would stretch across a king.

We have a new mattress! That is not the issue! There should be side and foot boards like shown in the photos! The headboard is wobbly without them!

There is about a 2 inch gap between the boards and I think a foam mattress would not add the support you need. It should be noted that the wood used for this bed is not at all high quality and if this is something you plan to have a child sleep on don't expect long term use we bought 2 for our boys and they lasted for only just over a year. One of the 2 the wood split while we were putting together and had to use wood glue to fix. If it is something that will not be for daily use it could be ok. Maybe...

This is exactly what I've done. I bought this mattress for my mother and it is exactly as you've said, there is a gap either at the top or bottom of the bed.
