Can support legs be high enough for a four posted bed the is pretty high. Will the legs remain stable? And can they be used on bed with metal sides

It should work fine, the legs are adjustable and it also comes with height extensions that I did not need with my four post bed. It will work with a metal frame, you will just have to drill and bolt it if you want it attached. Either way, it shouldn't move with the mattress on it, attached or not.

It has to screw into the metal bed frame, but as long as whatever you put under the legs raised them to the same height as the screw holes in your bed frame, I expect it would work. Just a note, the legs have to be attached to the headboard with several screws on each side. Most of them were fine, but one of the holes on the leg did not match up AT ALL with the holes on the headboard. And since this is not made from solid wood, I could not drill a new hole for it. It is still sturdy enough though without it, since there are other screws.

I agree with others. The sides and backs have a slip in feature to hold them but that high being so lightI doubt they would be stable. Mine are two high like the picture on my desk and are just fine.

The metal is fairly thick, so if you were to attach it in enough places, I don't think that you would need the legs that it comes with. Essentially, if I am to understand what you plan to do. I guess what I would be concerned with would be the weight and activity in the bed. Is it for a child or an adult or two adults? This would be a matter of using your best judgement. The frame metal is your standard frame metal, so if you think that will work for you, this will too. Hope this helps. (Hard to know without too much information)

No, I don't think the bed would be stable--even with no jumping--unless the bed legs fit down into the recessed part of the risers. In fact, I wouldn't advise jumping even if the risers fit properly. We have five risers on the five legs of our sofa. It has toppled off the risers a few times when teenaged grandchildren plopped down too hard on it!

Sorry do not check this e-mail often:) but no they are not stable if stacked on top of each other. Can you do it? sure, but would not recommend it.

Ours has four legs which we believe contribute to its instability. Three legs would be stable even on uneven ground. It is very light and easy to carry, but Herm found the seat small.

It can be but it's pretty big in the bed. Ours is a king bed, and it seemed a bit much. It worked fine stacked on something right next to the bed. As far as the sides being up, it'll be wobbly with only two sides up like that.

IMHO, a metal frame would not work. You need wooden slats to hold up the matress. However, the slats that come with the bed are questionable at best. If you buy this bed, go to Home Depot and buy a supportive peice of plywood to go underneath instead of the slats ($20).

I ordered the metal support frame with mine, it works fine except the side legs are too close to the edge, very easy to stub your toes...and very painful.They really should have recesses the legs on the frame. I would think a regular box spring would work fine too.

Most certainly but you must have a supportive crossboard on bed/framework to stabilize the steel flanges accompanying the 'risers' as shown; ours (we used 8 on our furniture piece)were secured into framework on bottom of large 2 pc sectional (which came with legs too short to vacumn beneath)..no problems once screwed into steel flange which has to be inserted on framework

you will not be able to use the standard plastic/or wood risers designed for the metal frames that have wheels. you will require a flat riser, you can however construct your own bed risers - http://organizeyourstuffnow.com/wordpress/diy-bed-risers

This bed requires a firm surface. It must be on a flat surface or a spring support surface. I would suggest a 1/2 inch sheet of plywood be placed on the metal bed first if there is not consistent support on the entire surface.

Probably they can be stacked 3 to 4 high, but I don't know how stable they'll be. I have them stacked 2 high to bring a table up to adequate level and they remain very sturdy. I say give it a try !

If you stack them to raise it 5 inches I don't think they would be stable. A block of wood with a middle indentation for the wheel would be better. Even double stacked is not stable. The least little move of the bed and they come undone. I don't think I would even use them for the 1 inch lift.

I wouldn't use them for support standing up. I have potty next to my bed and use a bed rail to get up.

I am using the legs on several 4'x4' tables I constructed which I use separately or bolted together for hobbies, slot cars, ping pong, etc. I did add detachable metal sway bars and when set up with the sway bars attached, the tables are rock solid. My experience with various hobby and game tables is that sway bars are essential unless all you need is a light weight card table construction. I considered card table legs, but decided my tables needed stronger support. I think it will be difficult to find any legs (folding or otherwise) that without bars, won't sway under weight. Good luck!
