Installing Bed Rail Fasteners
Male Hook Plates are screwed directly to the inside of the bed rails. Screw length should be almost the thickness of the bed rails.
- #6001 bed rail fasteners have a cast flange. A saw cut groove should be cut to accept the flange.
- #6000 bed rail fasteners have 2 cast buttons. 2 small circular holes should be routed in the rail to accept these buttons.
By fitting and screwing these rail fasteners directly against the bed rail the male plate is stabilized and movement is minimized.
Female Connection Plates are mortised into the bed posts. These mortises should be slightly inside of the center line as the end of the male hook plate is not directly centered on the end of the bed rail.
