1) Submitted by Thanthon, from York, ME on 10/2/2009 Customer Rating: I first used the bed bolts when building a massive, oak, queen-sized bed for my daughter and am currently using another set while restoring a 170 year-old Jenny Lind bed that is in very rough shape with no side rails. I'm making new rails and will use the bolts with them. Bed is originally made with walnut and basswood; new rails are basswood. I find power mitering chisel works well in setting the nuts for the bolts.

2) Submitted by Bogie, from Helotes, TX on 9/23/2009 Customer Rating: Our youngest Daughter sent us a sketch of a bed she wanted us to build for her. I purchased the Bed Bolt Wrench, Bed Bolt Covers, Sheraton Style Antique brass and 3/8'' Dia. Bed Bolts because I had used the same ones from Rockler for our Grandson's crib and I knew they were high quality and a reasonable price. bogie

3) Submitted by Nick K., from Rocky Point, NY on 8/25/2010 Customer Rating: I designed and hand made a custom cherry wood queen bed which I was ready to use bed-rail clips. I read the reviews about bed bolts and spoke with a contact person who wrote a review that had experience. I then spoke with my brother-in-law who delivered furniture for a large manufacturer. I was advised to switch to bed bolts which I am so glad I listened because these are really solid connections that won't loosen up. They look professional and I would recommend them to anyone who has the patience and the skill to install them. I am definitely going to make my next bed project for myself with these bolts! Thanks Rockler for stocking them along with the wrench and coverplates! Custom Queen Bed (click to see full-size picture in new window)

4) Submitted by Walter Ligon, from Marietta, GA on 4/1/2009 Customer Rating: My bed was an old (1960's)which was assembled with dowels and glue. The glue was old and brittle, so that the joints were loose. Installation of the bolts solved the problem.

Bed Bolt, Bed Bolt Wrench, Bed Bolt Covers, Sheraton Style Antique brass, Cross Dowels and Connector Bolts) were purchased to build a bed for our youngest daughter a project that is on hold until I recover from Rotator Cuff surgery three days ago.

6) Submitted by Fred Wojtas, from Hamburg , NY on 3/30/2009 Customer Rating: I have used bed bolts on a number of beds I made. They secure better and more rigid than any other means. The wrench tightens well and looks good. I attach it to the headboard so it is always available to tighten or disassemble the bed. (click to see full-size picture in new window)
