Full Size Metal Bed Rails are angle iron supports used to attach a headboard to a footboard, thereby supporting a box spring and mattress. For full size bed rails to work, you must use both a headboard and a footboard. There are two types of full size bed rails; hook-on and bolt-on. Following is a description of each type:
- Hook-on full bed rail sets have two hook-on prongs on each of the end of the rails.
- Work with most standard beds that require bed rails that hook-on.
- Use with your existing hook-on headboard and footboard.
- Bolt-on full size bed rail sets bolt on to your existing headboard and footboard.
- Work with most standard beds that require bed rails that bolt-on.
