I want to turn it sideways up against a wall and use it more like a daybed. Is the top of the bed, where a headboard could go, finished?

Hello Tricia!Thank you for your interest in this South Shore Trinity Platform bed. The headboard panel (facing the wall) is unfinished. Do you already have this bed? If so, please contact me at 1-800-290-0465 (Sabrina) on week days. For additional information, feel free to contact our customer service at 1-800-290-0465 or visit our website at www.southshore.ca :)

Yes - but the platform is basically flush with the base at the head so it won't look quite symmetrical, but I doubt if anyone would notice unless they're looking closely.

It is finished, but the thing it is heavy to move and will break easily at the same time. Dont know it can sustain all thr poppong up and down

The headboard is attached to the matching wooden bed frame with wood screws. I suppose if you had the proper mounting angle irons you might be able to improvise, but this headboard was made for the matching bed frame. I would suggest careful measurements to see just where the attach-point might be, then you'd be into your own plans for the modification. Best wishes and good luck.

You can decide how high you wish to install the entire headboard including the night stands. The nightstands height cannot be adjusted after you secure it

This is will work well. I went from an old bed to a king bed frame. I had to add an extra clamp board around the back of head board post. Just using the hooks the head board isn't real solid. But it's easily done.

The headboard stands about 50" high and can be placed between the bedframe and wall. We'd previously secured ours to a frame, but now have it in a guest room with the bedframe holding it against the wall. I probably wouldn't use it this way unless something was holding it in place. The previous reply about anchoring the headboard is probably the best idea if you can't secure it to a frame.

I was going to suggest doing the same thing as Candyce mentioned (+1), i.e. they have a specific side, you can turn the bed around and "attach" the headboard either way.I didn't attach the headboard. I put felt pads to avoid scratching the wall, but the headboard, which can standup by itself, is squeezed between the wall and the bed frame.

Mine was the full sized headboard. It was the brown color. I did not attach the headboard to the bed, as my bed pushes it against the wall. I don't think it would be an easy process to attach the headboard to the bed with the hardware that was included. I discarded that extra hardwear.

We thank you for your interest in South Shore furniture. As there is no headboard or footboard on that bed, the drawers can be on either side, you just turn the bed around. Do not hesitate to contact us again is you have any other questions.

iam not so sure you can attach a headboard but you may be able to drill hole on either side of top frame and attach...but don't think it would be too sturdy..this is a heavy duty frame though.

The headboard will fit snugly against your frame, but it's a very lightweight piece, so it will flex an inch or two. You can't sit up in bed and lean against it without causing it to rub against the wall. It's more decorative than functional.

If you build according to directions no. You'd have to flip the way you build it if you wanted the drawers on another side or turn the already built bed another way.

It can be but it looks silly because it takes up most of the headboard. It goes well and is supported with just. Top mattess

The headboard is a separate piece but it is an integral/structural part of the bed. Not using it would require fairly significant modification.

I've moved away from the home where I had that bed, but I believe the unit just stands alone and has small brackets to attach it to the wall. There are panels at least a foot wide facing the top of the bed where a person could probably drill holes for bolts and attach a metal frame to the headboard. It is a heavy, sturdy unit. I was very happy with it and would happily get another one.

It would look best with a box spring. Without it you will have a big gap between your bed and headboard.

Can you adjust the headboard to make it not so high? I'm looking for a shorter headboard because The bed is in front of a window and I don't want to block it too much. Just want the headboard to show a little above the propped pillows. Thanks!!
