I don't believe so Jean. My husband put it up and thought it was fairly easy to assemble. He would have mentioned something if he'd been missing parts. I can double check with him and let you know.

I had no problem attaching the bed frame with the headboard. The bed frame was a little narrow had to force it a little bit to get the bolt throught.

One side of metal frame was bent but I made it work - if I recall correctly there was only bolts and washers. Otherwise pretty easy...

I'm afraid I won't be much help because I just propped this headboard behind the bed and pushed the bed against it so that it's snug with the wall. I don't recall there being brackets included in the package but I could be mistaken. Sorry I couldn't give you a better answer!

If you want to add a head board you will need special attachments to do so. Amazon sells these attachments. Otherwise, if you already have a complete bed frame this just slips inside of it. I hope this information was helpful to you.

They do not attach to the frame. The bed legs sit on top of the bed risers. If you were very handy, you might could attach the riser to the bed legs, but they don't generally lend themselves to do so. With enough side pressure like someone running and jumping on the bed, they could tip over. But it would be extremely difficult to do that.

You are going to want to attach it to the bedframe. If you don't it will rattle everytime you get in and out of bed and eh hem... if you are getting cozy with your sweetheart. You have to put it together so make sure you have everything laid out and check for all finished edges before you get it assembled and find you have put one piece in correctly like I did :(

You can purchase brackets that attach to the frame and allow a headboard and/or footboard to be bolted on, but they don't come with the bed itself, you have to purchase them separately. Also, because of how the brackets are attached (like on mine), expect the headboard to be a little wobbly.

I don't think the brackets are long enough to provide the needed support. I have two beds with these and one I used a 2x6 and the other a 2x8. Found them at Menards if that helps!

Sorry it took me a while to answer. We used the openings on the corners to screw the frame to the headboard. you can drill holes if you have to. Whatever works for you. Good luck.

We ended up having to pay a handyman to put this together, even with the instructions! I have the instruction files they sent me but I don't seem to be able to attach them here &#128563;

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.

These are part of the legs of the headboard. They are a very snug fit so some pressure is needed to seat the upper parts into the lower parts. I found it easiest to loosly attach the lower parts to the bedframe then carefully push the top down to until the parts are completely assembled. I needed no tools to accomplish this.John

I attached it to a free standing queen size metal bed frame. It came with screws to attach it

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.

U need a specific frame. I wish I would have known this before I purchased the bed.

No brackets are included. But there are holes drilled into it for that purpose. In fact- you have to be careful with this- the frame is high, so as to eliminate the need for a box spring, so the headboard we ordered did not fit properly because it was designed for a traditional lower bed frame (it was also slightly wider than the frame). My husband made his own brackets (from wood) and bought proper size screws and bolts, etc., and we were able to make the headboard work, especially since it is up against the wall. Overall, when all was said and done- the entire bed ensemble looks great once the mattress and bedding (comforter, pillows, etc) was added. No brackets are included.

Use the hardware provided and follow the directions also provided. My metal bedframe has holes that lined up with the headboard. My daughter attached it for me with just a screwdriver and pliers. I held it for her to stabilize it until she got the screws started through the holes. Good Luck!

I have a metal frame for my boxspring and mattress. There are screws that come with the headboard, and they easily fit into the predrilled ones on your bed frame. The headboard has also got predrilled holes. I screwed them together before I put the uooer part of the headboard on so I could easily align the holes. Just make sure to read directions carefully before starting.

I don't recall a t bar reference. My bed is raised 6" in the front and in order to support the (raised) bed frame I attached the Bed Claw supports to the metal bed frame by drilling holes at strategic support points and attaching the Bed Claw with screws. Seems to be supporting the bed fine.
