Instructions
Step 1
Step 2
Attach back cleat to studs in wall with 2-1/2" wood screws. Then attach legs to the back cleat with pocket hole screws. One leg must be attached to studs in the wall, preferably both outer legs. We had a storage box built in in the corner, so attached the second outer leg to the storage box. This keeps the daybed from racking.
