Montana Woodworks Montana Platform Bed

No, this is a platform bed designed with a robust foundation that supports your mattress directly. You do not need a box spring, which helps keep the overall profile of the bed lower.

The bed features six full-sized dresser drawers integrated into the frame. Because they use ball-bearing slides, they are designed to hold substantial weight and operate smoothly even when fully loaded.

The 'ready-to-finish' option arrives as raw, sanded wood, allowing you to stain or paint it to match your specific decor. The lacquered options come professionally finished, providing a protective, long-lasting clear coat right out of the box.

Assembly is required, but the bed is constructed using traditional mortise and tenon joinery, which is designed for straightforward, secure connection. You will need basic tools and likely a second person to help position the larger frame components.

Yes, lodge pole pine is a durable softwood known for its strength. By utilizing mortise and tenon joinery—a method where one piece of wood fits into a hole in another—the frame is built for heirloom-quality stability rather than relying on simple screws or nails.

The overall height of the unit is 47 inches. We recommend measuring from your floor to the bottom of your window sill to ensure the rustic spindle headboard fits comfortably beneath it.
