I have a queen heavy sleigh bed, with rails that hook into the headboard and footboard. I don't want to use the footboard, only the headboard. I want a metal frame. Which adapter kit will work?

In all honesty, I would go to Home Depot , I tried twice online with supposedly guaranteed to fit adapters and neither worked, I went to Home Depot... came home with the adapter that fit for almost the same price as online and far heavier.

The conversion kit will work. But there may be a problem with how high or low the bed rails fit. It depends on how high or low the slots are in the headboard. I found that low profile sleigh beds work better than traditional sleigh beds. Hope this helps

These hooks didn't fit quite right to make the fame tight with my headboard.... It wobbles....

The headboard and footboard will bolt directly to a frame or rails. If your frame has hooks that go into slots on the headboard and footboard it won't work. Also if your frame only has holes for bolts on one end it won't work, it has to bolt at both ends.

It will fit any bed meant to have a standard metal frame (vs something custom-made for it). A regular sleigh bed is just a cocoon made of separate pieces attached to a metal frame. If yours doesn't require a specifically engineered one, it will take the parts.

I use a regular box spring and standard metal frame under it and have the headboard attached to the metal frame. The headboard looks great I just love it. It's slightly lighter in real life than the pictures. Amazon doesn't sell the complete bed ( the matching frame with would hide the box spring) but an easy solve was getting a tailored bed skirt. It really looks great. As far as the metal platform you're referring to I'd assume as long as there is somewhere on the bed to attach the headboard to it should work. But I think just a standard box spring frame would be all that's needed. I hope that was helpful.

I went from full to queen size and it worked for me. I tried a different adapter prior to this and it didn't expand far enough. Measure the holes from the rails to the holes in the headboard on each side to be sure it will fit.

I am not sure. The bed rails that I tried to use didn't seem to fit in the slots of the adapter well and it was not stable. I though after that perhaps I could have used a different type of rail and just screwed it in. I still have the one's I bought and have not used them. They are strong but I would use larger screws than what comes with in the packages. They are short and am not sure if they would withstand much weight.

I have a sleigh bed also. It does get stuck around the footboard. I have to manually adjust it so it looks nice, but it can work.

The reason we bought these was because the metal rails we had were the bolt type rails and the bed had the slots for the hooks and since rails are so much more expensive than the adapters we thought we would give them a try. They worked perfectly. They are sturdy, we used them on my daughters full size headboard.

Annie -- it should work but wont have any thing to connect too-- just the weight of the bed will hold it in place. When it's on the metal frame in bolts on.

We used our old wrought iron queen size headboard & footboard & a couple of tweaks & it works great ! If you have an issue getting a larger frame bed & box springs up the stairs or in a tight space this is awesome ! Thanks !

You must have meant a king size bed frame. That is pretty much what I did with this item. I connected a full size headboard to a queen size bed frame. This item allowed me to use the original bolts and nuts to attach it to both the bed fame and the headboard. It isn't real sturdy this way but it works fine for aesthetic purposes.

I have a sleigh bed also and was concerned that it would work within the headboard, footboard and thick side rails. Mine also has three wooden slats to support the box spring. It worked fine with mine because you adjust it as you put it together. It's very sturdy.

The MightlyLift supports attach to bed rails in a much the same way that wooden slats would. With wooden rails, a single wood screw attaches each end of each MightyLift support slat to the top side of the rail. These screws bare no weight. They simply keep the support slats from moving. I'm not familiar with SVELVIK, but I'd think that with most metal rails, you would drill holes in the rails (if holes aren't already present) and use either machine screws, lock washers and nuts or sheet metal screws (like a wood screw for metal) to attach the MightyLift support slats. I hope this helps.

That would depend on the width and depth of the space between the headboard & footboard, and from side to side. Get those measurements and compare them to the measurements provided in the product description. If you have an existing frame with rails, you may want to consider adding extra slats between the rails to support a foam mattress (if that's your intent) which would eliminate the need for the metal platform.
