Is the metal ring heavy? Where I am staying may not have a fixture over the bed to hang it from. Any suggestions? Walls are cement.

This is probably the lightest net ever . I have it over my bed , and it was easy to put up. I live in an older house so the ceilings and walls aren't too good but this net isn't heavy at all. I love it.

Ring is not heavy. If you can't screw a cup hook to the ceiling, how about fixing to the walls and stringing a line between? The tension (pulling out force) on the wall fixings will be more than on the ceiling, and especially if you tighten the line. A sagging line would be better. In either case, fixing to the wall will require drilling and fixing the hooks with a wall plug or masonry anchor.

It's not heavy. It comes with a anchor to put in the ceiling and hook that goes into that, from which the whole thing hangs.

No the mental ring isn't heavy at all. I hung it directly from the the ceiling. I don't know how it would be done with cement.

The ring isn't heavy. If there is no way to hang the net, I would maybe go and get that heavy duty Velcro and use that to attach the ring to the ceiling. I used that stuff once to hang my framed photographs in a show. When the show was over, the glass and frames broke from trying to rip them off of the walls. In other words... that Velcro is intense.. and WORKS.

Bulky yes, heavy no. Just keep in mind you may need someone to help you hang it up when placing it.

It is designed to be mounted to the wall. The headboard and nightstands hang on the wall behind the bed. I doubt you could safely re-engineer it to mount to a metal frame.

Use the hardware provided and follow the directions also provided. My metal bedframe has holes that lined up with the headboard. My daughter attached it for me with just a screwdriver and pliers. I held it for her to stabilize it until she got the screws started through the holes. Good Luck!

My rails are wood. I must be careful when Tightening my unit. I have not had a problem so far. I take it down in the winter. I would not hang something really heavy from it.

You can just hang it from a ceiling hook. It has supports built in to keep its shape above the bed.

Mine is definitely attached to the bed. Not sure if you can get creative and somehow mount it to the wall. It's a great looking headboard though!

i am sure it could be attached to a metal bed frame. it is not pre-drilled for it though. you would have to drill it to attach it. i debated about doing that. but i currently just have it against the wall with the frame against it.

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.

Put it this way, it is HEAVY, not flimsy material. It looks great in our spare bedroom, along with the headboard. I have the same colour of panelling on the bottom of our walls and a light/medium blue above. Friends just LOVE that room.

Too heavy . Do not recommend to hang it to dry wall. You need to anchor to house structure.

I think it is way too heavy. This is an actual quality piece of furniture which surprised me. I don't see this on any wall.

I am not allowed to hang things from ceiling in the facility where I teach, so did not address that issue when I got them, and they are locked up at the facility. I won't be back there until next week. My gut feeling is no. I think it is too heavy. Rather, you could put it on top of a big ladder, or a high shelve, etc. I love the fact that if the music is loud enough you can set it to sync with the beat of the music and the lights pulse the beat! Totally cool dude :) Hope this helps..if not let me know.

I used it with a metal bedframe. It's not elegant and needs to be adjusted occasionally. Does the job but not what it was designed to do.

It is quite heavy. At least I cannot lift the package by myself. The crystals account for a lot of the weight. An electrician installed it for me. I believe he used a normal junction box.

Okay J - Thank you so much! I am a visual learner and I had no idea how those metal things attach/clip, whatever and if it is hanging from the ceiling already, I guess it's not for support, but just to: Raise The Curtain if you will. Got it. Thanks

It's not heavy at all. Hung mine using a regular nail and it's been up for months :)
