Modern Four-Poster Bed

Straightforward construction and elegant styling combine to create a restful retreat for years to come.

From the tall tapered posts to the frame-and-panel headboard and footboard, classic design elements make this bed a showpiece that’s at home in just about any bedroom decor. In addition to the style considerations, you'll appreciate the ease of construction and attention to the overall structure. Since the bed will be moved at some point, you can't use permanent joinery to attach the headboard and footboard to the rails. Fortunately, modern knockdown hardware makes it possible to accommodate almost any design. We've chosen some very common hardware and assembly ideas for this bed.
