Do screws screw into the wood or into metal?

From what I remember, metal for all the major connections. The bed is very sturdy. I have 2 that my kids jump on all the time, no problem at all.

Into wood. It has pre-drilled holes so it was very easy. VERY well made bed. I am so pleased with it.

Ideally flat head screws, cone headed screws have more risk of cracking the wood if you over tighten a bit

Yes, it simply lies in the metal. So as long as your wood has the same dimensions it would be an easy switch.

you can use any screws but you WILL split the wood fairly often. When compared to regular wood screws, these typically cost about a dollar more for a 50 pack.

The wood base is just more pleasing to the eye (my opinion). *Note: At any rate, never use the plastic-dry-wall screw-holds that come in the plastic baggies. (Toss 'em out). Drill the screw directly into your dry wall, straight into a stud/wood beam.

I have never tried regular wood screws, I think the threads on wood screws won't give it the same bite

They screw right into the wood frame of the the swing set. The screws you get with the set are really heavy-duty so they anchor in tight. I hope that helps.

I strongly recommend carefully predrilling before adding screws---to minimize wood stress/splitting risk. (some 'self tapping' screws automatically do this, but one must be especially careful not to over tighten/strip out the holes!!)

The screws appear to be brass, are sunk into the wood and tightened with an allen wrench (hex wrench). They are high up on the bench, fasten very tightly and have not rusted or stained anything.

Both. Just make sure the provided screws aren't longer than the thickness of the cabinet.

The brackets are not plastic, they are metal. Yes, they screw into the wall. We are happy with ours. It looks nice and the curtain stays clean longer.

These need to be screwed into something like wood. I suppose you could drill holes in your metal slats and them use nuts and bolts rather than the screws that come with these, but drilling the slats would be tough without the right drill and bit. You might be able to get wood slats if your metal frame has a channel for them and then screw these in.

The screw goes all the way through. The metal on the front is part of the screw. Hope that helps

I used stainless steel screws . You can use liquid nails. But be sure its in exactly the right place if you do.

Correct - screws are short. We bought cabinet screws from lumber yard and clipped them to length with a heavy pair of pliers Please note these screws had blank spaces ( no threads) to clip otherwise you may ruin the screw. Unfortunately going to the lumber yard is an added step - the knobs look sharp for the price.

You are going to have to get a metal drill bit and drill holes for the screws. There is no other way as it is plastic.

I have no trouble driving 2" deck screws into fresh wood; 3" into dry wood. Or sheet metal screws into aluminum or corrugated metal.
