A traditional option for a standard setup, our metal bed frames are designed to work with a box spring or our Box Foundation to provide support, breathability, and height to your bed. Super simple to assemble, our base metal frame doesn’t require any tools, frustration, or yelling. Plus, it works well with most headboards and has 6 inches of under-frame clearance.
