Flat-Pack Furniture Doesn’t Have to Be Frustrating – Here’s How to Make Assembly Easy

Let’s face it — flat-pack furniture doesn’t have the best reputation. We’ve all wrestled with vague diagrams, missing screws, or that one tool you can’t find. But here’s the good news: assembling your new wooden bed frame doesn’t have to be stressful — especially when it’s from Nodax. (All our bed frames are designed with easy assembly in mind, and can even be disassembled and reassembled multiple times with ease, for example with house moves).

Here’s how to make the whole process smoother, faster, and (dare we say?) kind of satisfying.

1. Unpack and Lay Everything Out First

Before getting started, clear a bit of space and unpack everything fully. Laying out all the parts gives you a clear overview and helps you spot if anything’s missing before you begin. (Plus, it's way less overwhelming!)

2. Check Off All Parts and Fixings

Use the checklist in your instruction booklet to make sure you’ve got all the pieces, screws and fixings. This quick check can save you lots of time (and confusion) later.

3. Keep the Instructions Handy

Our step-by-step printed instructions are designed to be simple — but if you're more of a visual learner, we've got you covered. Watch our easy-to-follow assembly videos here:

4. Use the Supplied Ratchet Tool

Forget finding the right size tools or fiddling with an awkward allen key. Every Nodax bed frame comes with a ratchet tool for easier and quicker assembly. It’s smoother on your hands and cuts down your setup time — you might even feel like a pro!

5. Work with a Buddy (if possible)

While most of our frames can be assembled solo, having someone to hold parts steady or read instructions aloud can really speed things up.

Bonus Tip: Take Your Time

Don’t rush — a calm, step-by-step approach beats power-assembling any day. Think of it as a little DIY moment that ends with a beautiful new bed frame.

At Nodax, we know flat-pack furniture gets a bad rap — that’s why our designs are not only built to last, but also built to assemble with ease.
