Millwest Lane Shaker Bed

Yes, this bed is designed to be used with a box spring. The dovetail slat system provides the necessary foundation for your mattress and box spring combination.

The frame is built for longevity using a secure lag and bolt rail system. This method creates a tight, durable connection that prevents wobbling and ensures the bed remains stable over time.

Assembly is straightforward, though it does require two people due to the weight and size of the solid wood components. The lag and bolt system is intuitive, but you should plan for about an hour to assemble the frame properly.

The bed is handcrafted from sustainable solid wood. Because Millwest offers various wood species and stain options, the exact grain and color will depend on the specific timber you select during customization.

The headboard stands at 52 inches tall. We recommend measuring from the floor to the bottom of your window sill to ensure the headboard clears the opening comfortably.

Dovetail slats are precision-cut to lock securely into the side rails rather than simply resting on a ledge. This design creates a more rigid, integrated support structure that resists shifting and provides better weight distribution for your mattress.
