Check for Loose Joints It is essential to regularly inspect your bed frame to ensure there are no loose joints or screws. If you detect any, tighten them to maintain the bed’s structural integrity and stability. • Polish and Wax Ensure to wood polish or wax once every 4-6 months to maintain the original radiance of the bed and cover up from any rough surfaces and scratches developed on edges or rails. Also, it will make the texture look rich and glistening.
Regular Cleaning Develop a habit of regularly cleaning your bed from all corners, edges, and primary surfaces using a clean, damp cloth and gently wiping off dust, dirt, and spills.
