Learn how to safely raise a bed frame using Bamberry Bamboo Cube Raisers. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes, and storage tips included.
Quick answer
To raise a bed with Bamberry Bamboo Cube Raisers, place one cube under each bed leg after clearing the area and confirming the leg fits the slot. Choose the 4" or 6" height based on your storage and accessibility needs.
Why raise your bed?
Raising your bed frame adds valuable under-bed storage and can make getting in and out of bed easier for older adults or anyone with mobility challenges. The Bamberry Bamboo Cube Raisers come in 4" and 6" heights, so you can choose how much lift you need.
Before you start, check that your bed legs are round or square and fit within the cube's opening. If your bed has a solid platform base instead of individual legs, these raisers may not work — you would need a different solution.
Step-by-step guide
- Clear the area and check your bed legs: Remove everything from under the bed and ensure you have enough space to work. Check that each bed leg is round or square and will fit into the opening on top of the Bamberry cube. If your bed has a solid base or legs that are too wide, these raisers won't fit — stop and consider another method.
- Lift one corner of the bed at a time: Ask a helper to lift one corner of the bed frame, or use a sturdy block to prop it up. Never try to lift the entire bed at once. Always lift with a partner to avoid injury or damage to the frame.
- Slide the Bamberry cube under the leg: Position the cube so the leg sits securely in the recessed slot. Gently lower the bed and check that the leg is fully seated. Make sure the leg is centered — if it's off to one side, the bed could shift.
- Repeat for all four legs: Repeat the process for each corner. After all cubes are in place, press down on each corner to confirm stability. If the bed wobbles, lift that corner again and reposition the cube.
- Test the bed before use: Sit on the edge and then lie down. Make sure the bed feels stable and doesn't slide. Check that the cubes are sitting flat on the floor. If you notice any movement, double-check the leg placement and floor surface.
Product facts
- Bamberry Bamboo Cube Raisers: The Bamberry cubes are available in 4" and 6" high, made from bamboo, and come as a pack of 4. Choose the 4" height for a subtle lift that still fits under most beds, or the 6" height if you need more clearance for storage bins or easier access.
