Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Will this fit my bed size? A: Yes! This rail adjusts from 32.6" to 42.9" wide and works with twin, full, queen, and king beds. The height adjusts from 12.6" to 19.7" to accommodate mattresses from 7" to 14" thick (including mattress pad).

Q2: Is installation difficult? Do I need tools? A: No tools required! Assembly takes 3-5 minutes. Simply extend the legs, slide the base under your mattress, adjust the height, and tighten the knobs by hand. Full instructions included.

Q3: Will this damage my bed frame or mattress? A: No. The flat base slides between your mattress and box spring/bed frame without causing damage. The rubber feet protect your floor. No drilling, screws, or permanent modifications needed.

Q4: Can the rail fold down when I need to get out of bed? A: Yes! Pull the attached cord to fold the rail 180° flat against the bed. This allows easy bed exit without removing the entire rail.

Q5: How much weight can this support? A: This rail is rated for 350 lbs and is tested to 150% of capacity for safety. The reinforced carbon steel frame provides hospital-grade stability.

Q6: Is this safe for someone with severe mobility issues? A: Yes. This rail meets ASTM F3186-17 safety standards (the same standard used in hospitals). However, always consult with a healthcare provider about your specific needs. For severe mobility limitations, consider additional safety equipment.

Q7: Can I use this on an adjustable bed? A: It depends on your adjustable bed model. The rail works best with standard flat box springs. For adjustable bases, measure carefully and test stability, as the base movement may affect the rail's grip.

Q8: How do I clean the handles? A: Wipe the foam handles with a damp cloth and mild soap. The moisture-resistant foam dries quickly. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the foam.

Q9: Will this work with a thick pillow-top mattress? A: Yes, as long as your total mattress height (including pillow-top and pad) is between 7" and 14". Adjust the leg height accordingly so the rail sits at a comfortable level.
