Tips and Trick when Buying Platform Bed Furniture!

When you write about an industry for long enough like we have for the decor industry you start to pick up a few tips and tricks for many of the niches in the market and the Platform Bed Furniture topic is one that is usually hard to find any good info about without someone just trying to sell you something.

That’s why we thought we would put out the tips and tricks for the Bedroom Furniture category that we have picked up over time and share them with you here.

So, without further a due (I’ve always wanted to say that) here are the Tips & Tricks.

1. If you’re getting a platform bed with drawers underneath (and who wouldn’t) and if you’re getting the drawers on both sides of the bed make sure there’s a center rail in between the drawers on their backsides. This is to say that you don’t want the drawers to end butting up against one another inside the bed. Why? Well, for one this may cause excessive damage over time and lead to costly repairs.

And secondly, once the drawer guides become a little looser over time you don’t want the but ends of the drawers on one side to constantly be pushing out the facings of the drawers on the other side. They will always be offset from the face and look funny for the rest of the entire life of the bed.

2. Be sure that the center guide rail extends all the way to a center interior beam that runs the entire length of the inside of the bed. If the guide rail does not attach to something that’s really solid and sturdy over time the rail may sag or move from side to side which will cause your drawer to bind up on one side and become increasingly difficult to open and close.

Here is one of the best companies online that carry Platform Bed Furniture and their selection, prices and value is very hard to beat. Then on top of that, they offer Free shipping. Bedroom furniture can be very heavy and costly to ship, so in our opinion, Free Shipping is a very good thing!
