Installation Instructions
Installing the Bedrail
As shown in Fig 5, unlock the Locking Buckle that
holds the Safety Straps in place. Repeat on the other
side. The Locking Buckles should remain unlocked as
you install the Bedrail onto the mattress. Unbind the
Safety Straps. It may seem that you have an excessive
amount of strap for the size of the mattress but this
will be taken care of in the final adjustment step. Lift
the mattress slightly and slide both legs of the Bedrail
between the mattress and the box spring. The Bedrail
must be oriented 9 inches from the head of the bed,
as shown in Fig. 6. Please refer to the ruler printed
along the side of the instruction page for accurate
measurement. With the help of a second person, lift
the mattress sufficiently to extend the Safety Straps to
the opposite side of the bed. Make sure that the Safety
Straps are not twisted or tangled and make sure that
the Anchors are facing up. Bring the mattress back
down. Check that the Bedrail is still 9 inches from the
head of the bed and make any necessary adjustments.
Tightening the Safety Straps
To secure the Bedrail against the side of the mattress
pull the loose end of the Safety Strap that is protruding
from the Bedrail, as shown in Fig. 7. Pull the Safety
Strap towards you until the Anchor is flush against the
mattress on the opposite side. If the Safety Strap does
not pull through smoothly it is most likely twisted under
the mattress. Correct this before continuing.
Once the Anchor is flush with the mattress insure that
the smooth part of the Anchor is directly under the
mattress while the ridged part is snug against the side
of the mattress, as shown in Fig. 8. It is critical that
the Safety Straps with Anchors be pulled very tight
against the side of the mattress. To do so, pull on
the Safety Strap until the Anchor creates significant
indentations in the mattress, as shown in Fig. 8.
You may need to pull on the Safety Strap several
times in order to get the required tightness. Once
sufficiently tight, continue to pull the Safety Strap
with one hand while locking the Locking Buckle
with the other. Ensure that no slack was created in
the process of locking the Locking Buckle. Check
to make sure that the process of tightening did not
cause the mattress to bow and that the mattress
still lays flat against the box spring. Once sufficiently
tight, repeat the steps to tighten the Safety Strap on
the other side.

Check for Correct Installation
The mesh panel of the Bedrail and the Anchors should
be firmly against the sides of the mattress with no gaps.
