Installing a Murphy bed is an important step that must follow a very specific procedure. It's a safety issue. How do you install a Murphy bed? You can do it yourself or hire a professional.
A three-stage installation
Whether you choose a Murphy bed with ceiling use or a wall bed, your installation is done in several steps . First, you must install the box or cabinet that will house the entire mechanism of the Murphy bed, in the space of your choice. This structure must be fixed to a load-bearing wall, using brackets. Next, you must tackle the assembly of the bedding : that is to say, the bed frame, the front, the retractable foot and the slatted base. Finally, the two elements will have to be assembled and the mattress will have to be placed. For a cabinet, it is essential to strap the mattress to the base.Install a Murphy bed yourself to save money
Murphy beds are flat-pack furniture that you can easily assemble yourself . We still recommend that you have at least two people for the installation. Start by sorting all the parts (panels, brackets, screws, etc.) before proceeding with the assembly . Follow the instructions carefully because there is a specific order to follow when installing your Murphy bed, to prevent the mechanism and its jacks from getting stuck. Finally, the furniture must be assembled directly in the room where it will be installed since you will have to fix the structure to the wall from the start.Have the Murphy bed installed by a professional
A space-saving piece of furniture that combines comfort and design , the Murphy bed does have a slight drawback: its assembly and fixing are not necessarily easy if you are not a DIY enthusiast. To ensure proper installation and optimal safety, it may be wise to call on the services of a professional for assembly.
This operation will cost you a certain price, but it may be the one worth paying for peace of mind. And to make your space more pleasant, don't hesitate to personalize it with decorative accessories and choose a good bed. Once all this work is finished, enjoy your Murphy bed!
