How to assemble a transforming bed: step-by-step assembly scheme

The children's room should have a minimum of furniture and a maximum of free space. A regular bed takes up too much space. A transforming bed will come to the rescue, which has received many positive reviews among people.

Transforming Crib: Assembly Tips

When choosing a crib-transformer, you should pay attention to the following:

1. Security. Make sure that the materials are environmentally friendly. The bottom should be slatted so that the bed can breathe. And between the rods there should not be a large distance so that the head of the child does not fit there.
2. Cots can be on wheels, legs and runners. All options have their advantages and disadvantages.
3. For newborns, cradles are suitable.
4. Transformer cots are very popular in the modern market, because they are not only similar on standard beds, but also have spaces inside where you can store items to care for the kid.

Important! The size of such furniture is different. But transformers can be disassembled to the size of a large bed, and assemble to save space. The advantage is that when assembled, the bed is suitable for children under 4 years old, and when unassembled, for any age.

Advantages and disadvantages of the transformer crib

Such designs have their pros and cons:

1. You can remove the bedside table, as this will help increase the length of the bed.
2. The width cannot be increased. Therefore, such a design is more suitable for newborns.
3. Materials - wood, metal or plastic, all environmentally friendly.
4. A mounted cabinet will allow you to take all the things necessary for the baby, without leaving the bed.
5. The presence of a table for changing diapers simplifies the work.

Attention! The price of such furniture is average. It all depends on the material, size, as well as the number and size of additional devices (cabinets, drawers, bedside tables).

First you need to buy all the necessary materials. Most often, transformer beds are made of wood, because it is environmentally friendly. Of the tools you need only a screwdriver. All necessary mounts are sold complete with a bed. The process of collecting the structure is as follows:

1. To get started, make a project with drawings.
2. Prepare a place where the bed will stand. Cover it with a light cloth so as not to lose small parts (bolts and cogs).
3. Assemble the bed frame. To do this, connect the lower sides to the backs. Lock the frame so that it does not bend during operation.
4. First you need to attach a fixed wall to both walls of the crib. All necessary mounts are included. Note! Correctly install the top and bottom of the wall.
5. Now let's take a place to sleep. Very often it is already finished, in the form of a bed, and it remains just to put it. But if there is no bed, then it is in the form of lamellas. They need to be inserted into the grooves on the sides and attached with screws.
6. Now you need to install the facade wall. It is important that it is mobile. Everything is held together by cogs.
7. Now you need to assemble the bedside table from the parts in the kit. It is fixed with cogs. She will stand at crib level.
8. Now you need to collect the second bottom for a small bed.
9. Check all grilles on the sides again.
10. If the structure is on wheels, it must be turned over to mount the wheels in the grooves.
11. If there are pendulum skids, they need to be assembled and installed.
12. We collect boxes where clothes and other items for the baby will be stored.
13. We attach the side wall (where the boxes are).
14. We install boxes.
15. We put the design on the pendulum. Do not forget about the clips.
16. We close all the screws and nuts with plugs (so that the baby does not get scratched during sleep).
17. We fasten a table to the bedside table, where we will change the films of the baby.
18. We collect all the shelves and insert them into the structure.

The assembly of the transformer bed is completed. It remains only to prepare a bed for the baby.

Depending on the selected kit, slight differences in assembly are possible. Most often, along with the kit there is an instruction that will help to assemble the bed.
