What to Expect.

For specific questions, please refer to the "Need Assistance" section, where our team members are ready to help with billing, scheduling, and any additional details to ensure a smooth experience.
Preparing your Space
Every project is different. If you have any work planned before your wall bed is installed, such as refinishing floors, painting, or electrical work, you will likely need professional help.
If you do, it’s never too early to seek bids and select the right professional for your job. We can provide your contractor with assembly instructions, and our Project Management Team is always available to provide whatever support your contractor may need throughout the process.
If your order includes a wall bed, built-in storage system, or furniture requiring assembly, you may need to prepare your space in advance. Here are three key considerations:
Floors: For wall beds or storage systems, installation requires a finished, level floor. If you are refinishing floors, we advise doing so while your furniture is in production, allowing ample time for completion before installation day.
Baseboards: To achieve a flush, built-in appearance, baseboards may need to be removed. Your Sales & Design Consultant will have discussed optimal baseboard placements with you. If working with an independent contractor, ensure they are aware of these details for a polished installation.
Electrical: Verify that electrical outlets, switches, thermostats, vents, or access panels will not be obstructed. Your Design Consultant has provided an electrical layout to guide this process. If adjustments are necessary, now is the time to consult a licensed electrician. Note: Each Wand Light for wall bed systems requires a dedicated outlet.
For certain wall beds, there are specific guidelines regarding area rug placement:
- Oslo Sofa / Sectional: Rugs should be positioned beneath the sofa seat wheels.
- Tango Sofa / Sectional: Similarly, place rugs beneath the sofa wheels. Ideally, install the rug concurrently with the Tango.
- LGM: This model requires a hard floor surface due to its rotating mechanism. Rugs should be at least 18" from the unit’s edge.
For further guidance on rug placement, please consult your Sales & Design Consultant.
Wall material and construction determine if blocking is required for secure installation. Discuss this with your Sales & Design Consultant to confirm whether blocking is necessary based on your wall type. If using an independent contractor, ensure they are informed of the wall material and appropriate fasteners. Certain models, including Kali Duo, Penelope, LGM, and Altea, generally require wall blocking to guarantee safe installation.
