Frequently Asked Questions

Does this product include a finished bed frame, headboard, or mattress?
No. This product is sold as a mechanism kit only. Cabinetry, decorative bed frames, and mattresses are not included.

Will this work with my mattress type?
Yes, provided the combined weight of your platform and mattress closely matches the lift capacity. Proper weight matching is essential for smooth lifting and controlled operation.

What is the difference between side-opening and end-opening models?
Side-opening models lift from the side of the bed and are ideal for narrow rooms or limited clearance. End-opening models lift from the foot of the bed and are the most common configuration for standard bedroom layouts.

Can I replace the gas springs in the future?
Yes. Replacement gas spring sets are available for end-opening models only. Side-opening models do not use replaceable gas springs.
