How to Install Luroy Bed Slats

A Few Things You Need to Know Before Installing Luroy Bed Slats

If you’ve ever had the joy of dealing with a broken or sagging mattress, you know how important bed slats can be. Bed slats provide support for your mattress and keep it from sagging in the middle. They also help to distribute weight evenly, which can prolong the life of your mattress.

Luroy bed slats are a type of bed slat that is becoming increasingly popular. They’re made of durable plastic and have a honeycomb design that makes them very strong and sturdy. Installing Luroy bed slats is a relatively simple process, but there are a few things you need to know before you get started.

1. Measure the Width of the Bed

The first thing you need to do is measure the width of your bed. Luroy bed slats come in two sizes: 70 cm and 90 cm. Choose the size that is closest to the width of your bed. If you have a queen-size bed, for example, you will choose the 90 cm slats.

2. Choose the Right Type of Slat

There are two types of Luroy bed slats: rigid and flexible. Rigid slats are made of a single piece of plastic, while flexible slats are made of two pieces of plastic that are connected in the middle with a hinge. Each type has its advantages and disadvantages.

Rigid slats are more durable and will last longer, but they’re also more difficult to install. If you’re not confident in your ability to install the slats correctly, it’s best to choose flexible slats.

Flexible slats are easier to install, but they’re not as durable and may need to be replaced more often.

3. Follow the Instructions Carefully

Once you’ve chosen the right type of slat, it’s time to install them. Luroy bed slats come with detailed instructions that you need to follow carefully. If you don’t, you risk damaging the slats or your bed frame.

4. Test the Slats Before Use

Once you’ve installed the slats, it’s important to test them before you use them. Lay on the bed and make sure that the slats are supporting your weight evenly. If they’re not, you may need to adjust them or replace them entirely.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do You Secure Luroy Slats?

Is There Anything Else I Should Know?

The Luroy slat system is designed for use with mattresses that are 80 cm (32 inches) wide or less. If you have a wider mattress, you may need to purchase additional slats to ensure proper support.

How Are Bed Slats Placed?

Bed slats are placed horizontally across the bed frame and are typically spaced about 3-4 inches apart. They provide support for the mattress and help to keep it from sagging. Many bed frames come with slats included, but they can also be purchased separately.

Should Bed Slats Be Curved?
