Great platform, Heres How to Connect a Headboard...
Someone had a question about attaching a headboard. We bought a headboard (Atlantic Furniture Windsor Headboard, Queen, Natural) made out of the same wood in the same color and hooked them together. See attached photo. This picture is looking down the wall that is at the head of the bed. You can see the headboard is wider than the bed frame, The little block of wood is part of the headboard (see headboard pic) and the holes through it were setup to attach to a standard steel bed frame. I marked the holes on the wood bed frame legs and drilled all the way through the leg. Then, at our ACE hardware store I got really long bolts (the same style the bed was assembled with) and the matching nuts and bolted the wood block to the bed leg. Then I also added the angle bracket for extra support u sing large 1 screws. You cannot see the angle because it is between the wall and head of the bed frame. The result is a sturdy, very nice looking bed, with great storage underneath. Note: doesnt always have this headboard but a number of places sell it including some big box stores. Use the name I listed and do a search. Other headboards should also work.
