Will this work w/ a convertible crib that has a metal spring support under the mattress, not a wood platform?

Our crib has a metal bottom and it works fine. Our crib is slightly scratched on the surface where the rail touches it because my son shakes the railing.

The bed we use it on has a box spring under it, so I can't say for sure - but, if the bars that go under the mattress can rest on the metal spring support and not fall through, then I don't see why it wouldn't work. This bedrail also has a strap with a heavy piece of metal that acts as an anchor when you put under the mattress; it helps hold the bed rail in place. Hope this information helps.

Yes it will. The conversion kit is separate to turn it into a twin bed. I also purchased another mattress (3" one - dream on me) since the mattress provided is only 1" thick. I purchased this crib for over night stays with my grand daughter. When she is ready for the crib to convert I will need to do research on the kit. Most have stated there are no slots to support a box spring & mattress. I know a simple fix would be 4-5 slats or a pc. of plywood in order to obtain the safety of the bed. This crib IS lightweight yet very sturdy and is perfect for a small room.

I'd imagine that it would work. This set comes in 4 pieces, one for each side of the crib. If two sides of your crib are solid wood, you may be able to just not use those pieces. My crib has slats on all four sides and it works great!

Not really with the way its designed. It would become very unstable without all four sides unless you built something to support that side. Otherwise it would just "open up" and the mattress would fall. Just goes straight to full size bed and you have to buy the rails for that. I'm not even sure how I will like the look of it when its just a head board or foot board, but we will see. Good for just a crib though so far.

As long as you can push the bar between the mattress and hard composite piece it should work. The other issue might be the distance from the floor to the middle of the composite and mattress, the bars have to be able to adjust to that height. (In my case it was too high). A lower one should work

I don't think it would work with the mattress below the side boards. This item needs to be between the mattress and box spring.

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.

Havent tried. But its light enough to be able to. Would check the width of the door against the side of the crib. Good luck.

I secured my mother's to the boxspring below her twin mattress...so it depends on the sturdiness and design of the wood platform, I suppose--there is quite a bit strap(s) to work with but I don't know the measurements of your platform. The best I can do is have you compare to a twin size boxspring. The product is very well made, by the way.

Definitely. My 3 year old uses it. We have a convertible crib that lowers down, where the front comes off and is replaced with a toddler guardrail. We will keep this mattress until she transitions to a twin- when she won't roll off it.

This will ONLY work WITH a boxspring. This is not a platform bed.. It just looks like one :) I have a boxspring and it's perfect

You'd have to remove the legs (feet of the crib) but you won't then be gaining any ground, perhaps just an inch or two since at the lowest position mattress is at the bottom.

It's possible since the straps go all the way across to the other side. There is also a metal disc that would go between the box spring and mattress so that it can anchor flat against them to avoid sliding out. As long ad you can place this metal disc flat against the outside of the platform and mattress you should be fine. Only thing is you might want to put a small hand towel around he disc so it wouldn't scratch or ruin the wood platform. Hope that helps!!!

It should be fine because the metal frame that goes under the mattress is a solid piece that has a cross bar. What goes under looks the same as what you see on top, only it is longer - very stable. This is a good product that is very helpful for getting in and out of bed and when standing.

Valerie, I use this on a 4-way convertible crib. It is only meant for toddler size mattresses. It isn't meant to use on twin mattress set ups anyway. It comes with two ways to install. 1. No drilling required, snaps onto the spring platform that holds the mattress, or 2. drilling required to install a bracket onto the wooden platform your mattress sits on. I did option 2 as we don't have a spring platform. Does this help? Hope so!

It wouldn't be ideal because there are two panels and for the drop side to work, you would need to use one of the two panels on just the drop side. That means the remaining panel would need to stretch around the other three side of the crib. You could just use the two panels on the two long side of the crib and not wrap the short ends.

yes it would work and very well, I love this product it has stop my granddaughter from taking a tumble a couple of times. because there are straps that cross under a mattress when I have caught her leaning on it it didn't go anywhere.
