Victorian Bedstead Fixings

All our brass and iron beds bedsteads are available with the cast knuckle fixings used on original Victorian beds.

Hand cast and poured using traditional gravity casting techniques The fixings (shown here) slip in to place and lock. The fixings are cast onto angle iron side rails and cross members giving you the most solid base system you can get.Once in place the bed will not rock or squeak and will continue to get more and more solid as gravity locks the fixings together. We suggest the fixings are given and initial hit with a rubber mallet to get them locked together. This will need to be repeated when the bed is taken down. The bed will go back together every time and remain solid every time.

This is the same fixing used on original Victorian brass beds and brass iron beds and these remain as secure as the day they are made. When an old bed is restored these fixings do not get restored just a new coat of paint because they will be solid as the day they were cast. Our beds will be antiques in the future.
