How to Set Up an Adjustable Platform Bed?
1. Lay the adjustable bed on the platform slates: This is the most common way when using an adjustable bed for a platform bed. The user should consider the overall height of the adjustable bed profile before laying the adjustable bed on the slats. This way, the bed has a low profile and isn’t tall.
2. Remove the slats and use the legs on the adjustable bed: The legs of the base should have room to move during adjustments. The user should ensure that the rails that hold the slats are removed or that the adjustable bed is high enough to clear the slat rail.
