Headboard/Footboard VidaXL 856880 — Wood construction, Width 1400 mm, Headboard height 102.5 cm

VidaXL 856880 is a wooden headboard and footboard set designed for beds 1400 mm wide. The headboard reaches a height of 102.5 cm and the complete unit has a depth of 185 mm, offering both structural support and a decorative finish for bedroom furniture. Made from wood, the set can be used to replace or refresh existing bed frames and contributes to a coherent bedroom aesthetic with a solid, natural appearance.

Advantages

The wooden construction delivers robustness and a traditional appearance while keeping the weight manageable for handling and installation. With a height of 102.5 cm, the headboard provides visual presence and back support for sitting up in bed. The 1400 mm width matches standard narrow double bed frames, enabling a straightforward retrofit or upgrade without significant modification. The 185 mm depth allows for stable attachment to most bed base types and contributes to an integrated look.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Replacing or upgrading the headboard and footboard of a 1400 mm wide bed
• Restoring vintage or rustic bedroom furniture using natural wood elements
• Providing a supportive backrest for reading or watching media in bed
• Stabilizing and finishing a custom or DIY bed frame project

When it may not be suitable

This wooden headboard/footboard set is intended for beds with a 1400 mm width; it will not fit wider or narrower frames without modification. The product is a structural and decorative component and does not include an integrated mattress platform, slats, or storage; those must be supplied separately if required. If a lightweight, highly portable or highly moisture-resistant material is required (for example for outdoor use or very damp rooms), a different material choice may be preferable.

Key specifications

• Material: wood construction
• Width: 1400 mm
• Headboard height: 102.5 cm
• Depth: 185 mm
• Intended use: headboard and footboard for bed frames

How to use

Position the headboard and footboard against the corresponding ends of the bed frame aligned to the 1400 mm width. Secure the units to the bed base using suitable fasteners compatible with the frame material (screws, bolts or brackets), ensuring the depth of 185 mm is considered when choosing fixing points. Check that the headboard is vertically level and that connections are tightened but not over-torqued to avoid wood damage. If the existing frame requires adapters or brackets for attachment, install those according to the frame manufacturer’s guidance before fixing the headboard and footboard.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm bed frame internal width is 1400 mm to ensure direct fit
• Check the type of bed frame material and available fixing points for compatibility
• Decide if additional components (slats, bracket adapters, or fasteners) are needed
• Consider the room environment—wood performs best in normal indoor humidity conditions

Usage recommendations

For stable installation, use corrosion-resistant fasteners appropriate to the frame material and periodically check connections for tightness. If refinishing or painting, prepare the wooden surfaces with light sanding and use compatible primers and finishes to maintain durability. To protect the wood, avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity or direct sunlight.
