How far does this stick out from the wall? Moving from house to apt. Want headboard but thinnest possible so less space is taken up in room. Thx!

If you have the THICKEST part of the top knob flush against the wall, it looks to be about 3 & 3/4 inches. That would be as close as you could get it to the wall. My Drexel Heritage wooden headboard is only 1-1/2" thick, so there are definitely headboards that take up less room. There are also headboards with thinner knobs as well, I would imagine. This one is pretty much how the picture shows with the top knobs being the biggest thickness and thus preventing it being any closer to the wall. Hope this helps!

Approximately 3 inches. The knobs on the top are the thickest part of the frame.

if you have baseboard there will be space. We actually cut into our baseboard so it sat flush to the wall.

It's very slim. I think it only sticks out from the wall about .5" but the issue I had was the cable is not long enough to drop from my plugin down to the floor where there's more room to plug something into it. The cable needs to be about 6" longer.

You can certainly attach the headboard to the wall using a portion of the leg that is out of sight. I wouldn't recommend leaving it freestanding unless your bedframe can hold it securely against the wall. Frankly, if I'd only wanted a wall-mounted headboard, I'd have made it myself using plywood, batting and fabric. It's an easy task.

I suggest contacting the vendor you got it from directly. That's what I plan to do. In the processes of trying to move our California King bed to rearrange the room my husband and I have managed to split the wood away from on the head board

No it doesn't stick out at all. It is actually about 5-6 inches short, so no overhang. You have the closed end side towards wall (where you can attach headboard if need be). I'm a very big guy and this is by far the strongest metal bedframe I have ever had. It is super simple to put together. Just click together. Make sure all are pushed down. The middle section is the main reason. I have a tempurpedic and have had 0 issues. I've recommend this type of frame to all. I personally have a queen, but I ordered the king for my GF's bed and it works like a gem. Sorry for the long response.

Personally, I think that combination will be too high. We use the mattress only.I don't know about the headboard because I installed my own.

I wouldn't plan on hanging a headboard off of this. If the headboard was mostly self supported, you could tie into it for basic stability. We hung out headboard on the wall which is an alternate option.

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.

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.

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!!

I think mijcar has the truth of it. I'm doing a low-budget version of what you describe: I have two of these side by side and the slightly-more expensive rolled futon (from the same company) on top of that. It's very comfortable. I have some movement under the "bedroll" because I'm laying lengthwise on it, but if I understand your plan you intend to be lying "against" the grain, so to speak, widthwise. If so, it should be fine. Actually, once I get a new place with more room I might well do the same thing you suggest. It's a good idea.

I bought this bed for my mother so I do not actually use it. I did notice that the bed never touched the wall when the head is at fully raised position. 4" away from the wall sounds about right.

I would say 6 1/2 inches to be on the safe side. Also don't forget since it is a sleigh bed it will stick away from the wall a bit...I didn't take that into consideration

I have a fluffy bed spread, it more than fills the space between the bed and the draws. The headboard should be 3-4 inches wider.
