Will it be easy to secure it to a standard metal bed frame or will I have to buy some sort of attachment kit?

You can connect it to a regular bed frame,there are several holes to do this. However, on my frame, only one set of the holes worked, so another set had to be drilled. It does work with just one set of holes on each side bolted, but it is not as secure. I've noticed that others here have said they have had to drill an additional set of holes as I did.

yes, as long as the holes on the headboard line up with your bed frame, I had to drill a new hole in the headboard to get it to align with my bed frame, hope this helps

I secured mine to my standard metal frame, and it works fine. The screws you'll need are included in the package.

On my bed frame the holes matched up and it was simply a matter of securing two bolts per side. Very simple and easy.

Any metal bed frame has a place where a headboard can be attached to it so I'm sure your sleep number bed frame is no different. You should be able to attach it without any problem.

I easily attached it to a standard queen size metal bed frame. I used only the hardware included. Mine is solid hardwood, not particle board, and I am very pleased with the quality for the price. The headboard is shipped unassembled. I put it together by myself without too much difficulty, but another set of hands would have been helpful.

I would either Google it, see if you can find a company site or customer service number. If all else fails go to your nearest hardware store and purchase the generally hardware needed to put a metal frame on it.

That's correct . A good bed frame and box spring will do it. Walmart or other discount store such as ikea might have it.

Not sure what kind of bed frame you have. We just have hollywood metal frame and it attached with a couple screws and bolts. Love it!

most bed frames have the brackets as part of the frame so you just need some bolts that are long enough and washers and nuts to get it all nice and tight. All of which you can get at any hardware store for not much.

You only have to attach the metal pieces to the headboard, then attach them to the bed frame.

That depends on the kind of frame. Mine only had one end that I could attach to, so I flipped it around, attached the bottom end, and then pushed the bed against the wall the hold the head board. Not the greatest, butnitnworks just fine and I have not had any problems with it.

You mount it to a metal bed frame. It has pre-drilled mounting holes ready to go. It took us five minutes. So easy and we have loved this for a year now!

I installed this on a 40 year old bed that had metal side rails. I used self-tapping screws. If you are handy, a metal frame should not be a problem. If not, you will need help.

Our bed was an antique full size bed & we had no trouble with attaching it to our bed frame, however we did have to add height to the center post because our antique frame sat up higher than the newer bed frames. The brackets for the width of the bed were adjustable sliders that were secured with a bolt. We are very happy with the converter.

Annie -- it should work but wont have any thing to connect too-- just the weight of the bed will hold it in place. When it's on the metal frame in bolts on.

I use a regular box spring and standard metal frame under it and have the headboard attached to the metal frame. The headboard looks great I just love it. It's slightly lighter in real life than the pictures. Amazon doesn't sell the complete bed ( the matching frame with would hide the box spring) but an easy solve was getting a tailored bed skirt. It really looks great. As far as the metal platform you're referring to I'd assume as long as there is somewhere on the bed to attach the headboard to it should work. But I think just a standard box spring frame would be all that's needed. I hope that was helpful.

Hello. No you do not need a bed frame it's slips right on top of metal perfectly. This is why I purchased it. Hope that answers your. ? Good luck I love mines .

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.

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.
