DIY Murphy Bed Kit Queen Vertical | Murphy Bed Hardware for Wall Cabinet, Vertical Queen Frame, Deluxe Mechanism Kit with Bonus Tools

Really fabulous kit and instructions! This was the first piece of furniture we have ever made, but we are DIYers so we have experience with lots of other home improvement work. The instructions for this kit are superb! The instruction book lays out all materials you need to purchase and outlines every single cut. I recommend buying high quality plywood from a wood supplier (not from a big box home improvement store) and take your time with the edging and be sure to stain or paint everything prior to putting together. We had a few questions and sent a couple of emails to the company and they promptly replied. Highly recommend this kit to anyone wanting to make a Murphy bed themselves. If we had bought a kit of this quality, we would have spent $5-6k easily. The materials including the price of the kit were only about $900.Highly recommend!

This item is great and works as expected. It comes with two books, one with instructions, and the other with a cut list. You can also easily find these instructions online. You can follow the cut list, or if you are experienced you can design the cabinet yourself. Mine came with a slightly non-functioning piece (a pin that holds the sides together was locked closed) and when I emailed the company they sent me a replacement part within the week. The customer service was great, and besides that hiccup, everything works as expected.

The hardware seems to be off good quality. Lots of instructions, but a simple blueprint would be helpful. I struggled to find dimensions and how they related to the adjoining.paets without a diagram. It forces you to rely on the cut sheets and stickers. They spent a lot ofomey on videos with no sound,(I double checked other videos had sound).really nice booklet.too. the warranty is also a plus.

Instructions were great, cutsheet for material was easy to follow, just took the sheet to store with me and they made all the cuts for me. Took me a couple of days to assemble but following instructions was easy. Make sure you have plenty of screws the correct length. Makes my guest room now a workout room.

You do need to have woodworking tools and skill.The instructions were pretty good. On the cut list, the measurements did not match on one sheet, printing error. And another spot it said to use 1 1/4 screws to connect a 2x2 to a 3/4” ply……ya, use 2”😅. And you don’t need to band everything they say. But unless you have intimate knowledge of the parts, you’re just going to have to band everything. And one or two smaller print mistakes like if you want a twin support rod, it’s not 39” like in the book, if it sounds fishy read shared and make your decision.Customer service is very quick to respond.I asked them if I could take 2 singles and make a bunk and if they had plans for that. They said, no, do not make a bunk out of it. As you can see in the pictures, I did it anyway. I made a couple modifications.1- side boards are double tall so it’s one piece.2- reversed the legs on the top bunk for a roll bar….. not sure that was worth it 🤷‍♀️.I painted before I put together because it is way easier to paint before hardware and corners are created. I painted one side of each banded board. And I read ahead and found a few more un-banded boards that would need paint.This project did take me working for several days (I do get interrupted a lot).The instructions were easy to follow. The video was helpful, but super annoying not to have words. Maybe people complained about the audio before🤷‍♀️.Yes, I recommend this item.

Directions were very well done, and the hinges seem very sturdy and well made. Took me about 10 hours to make this bed, I did make mine with pine and not plywood and I was very happy with the outcome. You should have a good idea of how to work with wood and be very handy to take on this project.

Hardware works great. Easy to open and close. Took a star away because the Murphy bed building instructions could be better. Several errors and I often found the instructions were for building a vertical bed although I got the one for horizontal beds. You definitely need to have carpentry skills to catch the mistakes before you get too far.

I haven't built the bed yet, just been too busy. The directions and cut sheets are outstanding! I'm a cabinet maker, so I knew I could build this reguardless.I really just needed the hardware. The instructions for this are extremely well written and easy to understand. They're even large print! You can read them from 5 ft away!I'll update after I get the bed built, but I don't think there will any change. Seems like a great product!
