Great set of plans
Murphy bed is finished and could not have done this project without the plans. Project took longer than I anticipated because I finished all the wood with stain and poly before assembly. I only have a small amount of work space, did one pannel at a time and spent a lot of time waiting for the finishes to dry. Assembly went quickly and got help from my son when I attached the bed to the wall.

I've always wanted a Murphy Bed and we like the design, the plans, the hardware and are excited to put it together. We love woodwork, building furniture, toys, homes and barns. This looks great, but we will put our own character into it, with a few changes.

What about floor or wall installation ?and one finger put away?
Pamela on Jan 20, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Sorry went with a custom built shelf unit to surround my bed. Didn't really need Murphy part.
Are the book case designed to have a pull out table for each side of the bed?
Mark J on Aug 16, 2015
BEST ANSWER: The bookcase design is for 3 drawers on each side. But it doesn't mean that you can't modify it to work with a pull out table
are the plans full size or queen size?
William M on Nov 10, 2017
BEST ANSWER: The plans aren't specific to any bed size. There are two width options, one for 24" wide and one for 18" wide. They should fit next to the bed cabinet regardless of the bed size.
is the bed plan part of the hardware package? Does the bookshelf plan include the bed plan?
Wendy R on Mar 21, 2018
BEST ANSWER: I purchased the plan separately from the hardware kit. Plan for the bed part included plans for the bookshelf. Do not attempt to do this yourself without the plan unless you are an expert and have built a Murphy bed previously.
I have this murphy bed in my spare bedroom. I dont remember how this bed is attached to the wall. Can anyone help me?
J D on Aug 29, 2018
BEST ANSWER: It is probably lagged into the wall at the wall studs. There are a couple possibilities, at the top and at the board that goes across the back. You may have to take the bed frame away from the casing to get to some of them.
Are the drawers behind the doors on the bookcase system?
Gail M on Aug 13, 2016
BEST ANSWER: On this plan, item #31942 there are no drawers in the plan.
We have a plan for the deluxe murphy bed that has drawers. item #43707
You can download the plan for free from that page on our website
