Can this be used when bed sits inside frame and not on boxspring? My daughter hs a trundle bed where the mattress sits inside the frame.

I don't think that this would work in your situation. I tried to install this on a bed without a box spring- the mattress sat on the wooden slats. The rail part (which is what you see in the picture) is a round metal tube perhaps 3/8 inch diameter- so there would have to be a gap between the bed and the frame. The other issue I ran into was the round piece at the end of the strap to hold the rail flush against the bed (the straps run under the bed and are meant to wedge between the box spring and mattress). Since I was trying to install it with a mattress on a flat surface the circle was unable to lay flush against the bed and would slip free. Both issues meant that I was unable to secure the bed rail to our child's bed and I ended up having to return it. I went with the little bumpers that slip under the sheets and that has worked wonderful for us. Since you are using this on a trundle bed I would expect you to run into similar issues.

Yes, unless you have a bed frame that does not require a foundation or a boxsprings. For example, if you have a daybed that springs are build into the frame you will not need boxsprings or the foundation.

The Beds Up Insert can sit on the slats which your box spring is sitting on. There needs to be an opening for the center legs to go to the floor for support. Feel free to send a picture of your bed for review. Cordially, jerry

There are brackets that hold the back to the sides and the side to the front. These brackets are what the inside frame mount to and what the mattress sits on. So if it's one of those that doesn't move up and down then I don't see why not.

Yes - it should work fine, there are plenty of wooden slats to hold the mattress. It depends on how tall the memory foam mattress is for the trundle bed, there is a pretty good clearance, we have a thin mattress on ours but leave the pillows and comforter on it and push it under with no problem.

Not at all. I put my mattress in a bedbug cover and laid down a skirt for the frame, popped the bed right on top. I even got under the frame with my wife laying on the bed to check if a box spring could prove beneficial and it would probably make the bed sag if you were to use one. The support of the frame is phenomenal, and no box spring would be better. Not to mention you'd need to jump to get into bed with one, the platform is pretty high, and if you use a deep mattress your already pretty high off the ground.

Yes. The manufacturer makes a trundle that works well with this bed. http://www.kdframes.com/catalog.php5?id=16

As long as you have a foundation. This is not a platform bed, the slats are made to support a boxspring, not act as one.

Yes. There are mattress frames that remove the need for a box frame that work great.

I'm not sure what a trundle is, but i do put storage boxes that i bought from wal mart and container store down there below. In terms of a mattress i guess its possible but you'd have to put it down directly on top of it ( meaning put the matress down where you want it first on the floor and then put the frame directly on top of it) It should be possible to fit a twin under there, but i doubt a queen would fit)

In my opinion no. It does not completely encase the mattress (think of it as like a little bit larger than a fitted sheet with the terry top) so the bottom of the mattress is still exposed to the boxspring.

I don't see why not. I put an inner spring mattress with a memory foam topper on it. The only thing to be careful of is that you don't go any higher than 10 inches. That is the maximum height for the trundle to be able to fit underneath. I used a 8 inch mattress with a 2 inch topper. The bed is so well made, there is plenty of support for a foam mattress.

I would say not, it will make it too hight and not stable for box spring and mattress on it. I think this tine is intend to use instead of box spring. That just my opinion

I have a traditional box spring foundation and it's fine, no problems at all. I think this mattress would be best on a solid type of surface like the top of a box spring or a platform type foundation--I'm not sure about a slatted bed frame, but the mattress is very firm, and the bottom is a different, stiffer fabric that is stretched tighter and it isn't padded and soft like the top of the mattress is, so I think it would be fine even on a slatted bed.

I suppose you could put a boxspring on top of it, as long as the boxspring and the mattress did not slide around each other. The way it's designed though, you don't need a boxspring. The boards/slats have some flexibility. Mine is very comfortable with just a mattress.

This bed rail is between the mattress and box spring. I would think if the bed frame were solid wood instead of slats it may work. If the mattress sits on bed slats of several pieces of wood, the bed rail could slip. Our use is for a Parkinson's patient who has difficulty arising and his bed is a double. He has been very pleased with this bed rail, it is sturdy, easy to install and has made a wonderful difference for him.

Ideally the rail should fasten with the belt around the boxspring with the mattress on top. I agree that it is not tall enough to go below a mattress and a boxspring. I have not tried to use this product without the boxspring. It seems plausible that it would function with a mattress on top of the bed frame. My primary concern would be the stability of the belt fastened around a bed frame. I'm afraid too much pressure would be placed upon the belt.
