I was looking for the perfect headboard to go with my bed which is a little tall. This one was exactly what I was looking for! The headboard comes with a template to help with the mounting process. Just make sure you use your level. My 7 year old son did most of the work with my guidance. This company makes it that easy to do!! You need a pencil, drill, level, and hammer. That’s it!! I highly recommend this headboard.
