It doesn’t line up with newer frames. And our frame needed an extension piece to take a footboard in addition. Then the footboard still didn’t line up so my husband added some metal plate. Don’t buy this if you Aren’t handy or don’t have a handy person readily available to help you make it work. The price is great and the quality of the headboard and the footboard are very good considering the price. Just be warned, I doubt this will be a perfect fit for any frame old or new right out of the box.
