My bedframe is on carpet, so I’m not sure whether it would scratch the floor or not. I imagine you would be fine putting sliders on it. How I’m using it, it does not need to ever move. I bought the California King size, to use as a base for a wooden frame water bed mattress, in the specs it said it could hold 3500lbs. I put plywood on top of the frame, used my wooden waterbed frame on top of that and bought a new California king waterbed mattress kit. Everything fits perfectly, and it’s working out great. I would definitely recommend this frame
