Please note. This is a digital download, no physical item ships. These are generic DIY plans, not engineered or stamped drawings, and the bed has not been tested to any standard. A wall bed is heavy and can injure people if it is built or installed wrongly: anchor to wall studs, use hardware rated for the weight, keep children off, check local codes, and follow every tool manual. The builder is responsible for safe construction and use. Colors can look a little different on your screen and printer. For personal use only; please do not resell or share the files.
