is there a headboard bracket or kit for this?

It did not come with one as it appears this unit is intended only to be a platform bed which normally I've not seen with any headboard. If the company has one I have not seen one available for purchase, but you could try contacting them to ask before purchasing this unit.

i have only tried it for the foot board. Headboard brackets are usually part of the standard rails and should not need any more brackets or rail extensions.

The frame does not have brackets with it. There are pre-drilled holes in the frame (perhaps for a bracket kit) that I could use to directly bolt into my headboard. However they will not align every headboard.

My headboard is solid. Seems to me when I assembled I didn't exactly follow the instructions as I wanted a better chance of things lining up. Don't remember the specific steps though.

The box spring has an attachment at bottom (head side) for you to put a headboard on. Doesn't have to be the headboard in pic. Looks like you can attach any headboard! Good luck!

No, there were no headboard brackets. The frame would have been nice if the hardware hadn't been missing and the frame hadn't been damaged in shipment. I never did get the correct hardware. Amazon was wonderful about taking it back, though.

Attaching a headboard would just be a matter of drilling a couple holes. Should be easy to do.

Depends on how thick your headboard is. Ditto the getting longer bolts if it's too thick. Brackets are very sturdy. Hope that helps!

The frame does not include brackets so it would have to be drilled or possibly find brackets that work with the headboard.

There are bolts on the frame that attach directly to the head board. I used a metal frame with mine as well.

Yeah, it doesn't come with one! That was nice to find out when I opened it. You have to buy the bracket separately. You can get it at any Lowe's or Home Depot type store for just a few bucks. I thought it was kind of silly myself.

Nope, just the headboard is included.You can attach it easily to a metal (or wooden) bedframe that you already have or can get at just about any mattress store.

same here; I bought only the headboard. My old bed frame had the vertical bracket only on the head of the frame to attach it.

No answer unfortunately. Wondering if you ever found a place to buy the brackets?

not unless you created some sort of dock&latch port. there is no system in place to attach a headboard. i did buy the headboard (the one wtih the shelving units) that is associated with the product and just pushed the bed up against it and it worked great. but there is nothing in place to attach a headboard

Not sure...you probably have to adapt the frame (add something to it) -- maybe buy an old antique frame on Craigslist and take the piece from it that headboards attach to? There are often frames like that for about $50 or so...just a thought. Good luck with your project!!!!
