can this frame be set inside my existing wooden frame if I remove the slats and box spring?

Hello Pat T. It might work if the inside measurements of your bed frame measure 36 /37 inches wide and about 83/84 inches long. I have a Twin Xtra long.

Yes, unless you have a bed frame that does not require a foundation or a boxsprings. For example, if you have a daybed that springs are build into the frame you will not need boxsprings or the foundation.

no the side rails will not be useable the boxspring sits ontop of the new metal frame

I did not simply because with the box spring on top of the platform frame slats the bed was about 4 1/2 feet off the ground. so we just put it directly onto the slats...if you purchase just be careful during construction as some of the wood is kind of thin and soft so screws can shred or tear if you have to screw in/unscrew and screw again

The slats are wide apart. So I bought a compressed board at lowes for $20, had it cut to fit the gaps and put mattress on it. It saves the extra height of the box springs

Yes you can use your existing headboard,foot board,and rails. Take the slats out of the middle and it will sit right down in between. It basically uses your bed as a shell around your adjustable unit.Thanks mark

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use the box spring. I'm using two painted pallets for my xl twin bed. Enjoy your bed.

Like you, we only wanted to replace the mattress not our box Springs & frame. I contacted the manufacturer about using their Mattresses on our old frame & box springs and we're told that we could. We've had this mattress for several months with no problems. So my "short" answer is yes you can.

I just use a wooden slatted platform bed and that is all that is required. DO NOT buy a box frame for reasons other than wanting to raise the bed higher off the ground. I would add that had I had it to do over again, I would have dropped from a 4 to a 1 or 2 since I like a very hard bed. a good product.

Our box spring (queen size) sits inside so I suppose you could do a full size and just have am inch or two of free space around the frame

No you do not have to get rid of your box spring for this bed frame. You bed overall may be higher. But try it to determine your preference.

Slat position is fixed since they fit into grooves in the frame. But if you're handy with wood, you could probably figure something out.

the top of this bed frame has slats on top as well, but I think that it would be fine. If you put this frame together correctly, you will love it. I had a boxspring that was really creaky and noisy--not any more. this frame is very sturdy and quiet...

it depends. if you have a regular spring mattress you're good to go. the slats are about as far apart as they are wide. i have a memory foam mattress and would have needed a box spring but opted instead to buy a large plywood slab the size of the bed.

You should be okay but call the vendor to be sure. I also have mine on 1x4 pine slats with 2" or so spaces in between the boards. I am sure you don't need a box spring though. The bed is absolutely fantastic!

Yes you can. The frame I used is a bit thick but I'm sure you could use a thin one also.

I bought this for an old wooden bed that used slats. They were lost, so I bought wider wood ( 6 ", I think) from Menards and used more pieces so that they were closer together and worked pretty much like a platform. No box spring. Enjoy your mattress!
