Assembled bed frame with bedding in a bedroom

Bed assembly.
Done proper.

From box to bed.

  • Step 1

    Tell us the item.

    Brand, model, and configuration are enough for us to scope a bed assembly job. Send a product link and we'll come back with a fixed price and a booking time that holds.

  • Step 2

    We turn up.

    Right tools, right van, on time. Bunk beds, gas-lift bases, and superking frames may need two builders so the frame stays square and the rails sit true.

  • Step 3

    We assemble.

    We build, level, and finish the frame. Headboard attached, slats in, fittings torqued. The bed is ready for the mattress before we leave the room.

Hassle to handled.

What bed assembly covers

Bed assembly covers a wider range than it sounds. A simple slat frame is a 40-minute job. A gas-lift superking with a padded headboard is a different category. Here's what the work covers.

Bed frame assembly

The core build covers timber bed frames, upholstered fabric beds, slat platform beds, sleigh beds, four-poster frames, and the dozens of variations on those shapes that come out of NZ retailers. The work is the same in principle: lay out the parts against the manifest, build the long rails to the head and foot, attach the headboard, insert the slats, and tighten everything to spec. The detail that separates a good build from a bad one is squaring the frame before final tightening (so the rails don't sit in a slight parallelogram) and torquing the bolts properly so the bed doesn't creak under load six months later. We level the feet on uneven floors and pad them where needed.

Gas-lift, bunk, and complex builds

Some beds aren't a one-person job. Gas-lift bed bases (also called ottoman beds or storage beds) have a tensioned lifting mechanism and a heavy top frame that one person can't safely hold in position while another drives screws, so they may need two builders. The same goes for bunk beds, which are heavier than they look and need their rails seated square or the upper frame will rack and creak over time. Mirrored, brass-trimmed, four-poster, and superking frames fall into the same complexity tier. Two builders, more time on site, and a fixed quote when the job calls for it. For bunks specifically, we check guard-rail heights and ladder fixings before we leave.

Disassembly and cleanup

Bed frames are some of the most-disassembled-and-rebuilt furniture in Auckland, because they're awkward to move whole. Take them through a doorway in one piece and you risk dings to the frame and the doorway; take them apart wrong and the fittings strip. We disassemble in reverse order, label and bag each piece's fittings, and protect the rails and headboard for transit. At the destination, we rebuild from the same fittings and re-level the frame on the new floor. On standard new-build jobs, the work finishes with packaging: cardboard, polystyrene, plastic wrap, slat ties, and the bag of dowels you'll never need all leave with us. The room is swept before we go.
