Ultimate & Easy Way For Locking Futon In Bed Position
The futons are available in many varieties. Futon frames come with automatic locking mechanisms that hold them in folded up shape that will prevent the frame from sliding forward and flattening out. It totally depends on the type of frame, that the user can either pull on the seat or the back to unlock the frame. Best way to lock futon in bed position is shown below:
Bi-Fold Frame
- Move: The first step is to move the futon at least one foot away from the wall. However, the model's assembly instructions are the exact clearance user need.
- Grab: Hold down the 2 handles on the front of the seat frame, or if in case the frame is not having handles, that time grasp the edge of the seat frame.
- Pull: In order to disengage the locking mechanism pull frame up or both handles. As the user pulls up, pull toward themselves. The futon frame will begin to flatten out.
- Step Back: While continuing to pull set back, this will give the futon room to fully open up. Continue the process until the frame is fully unfolded. Some of the models require nudging the edge of the frame away from the user to lock down the frame in the flat position. To unlock these frames or refold it into a couch position, simply reverse the nudging process and carefully pull the edge of the seat frame in the forward direction.
A-Frame
In the case of the A-Frame follow the steps mentioned below:
- Move: Simply begin the process by moving the futon away from the wall so that it will be given good clearance.
- Stand: The next step is to stand in between the wall and the frame and start pulling out the portion of the back "A" which is closest to the user. Continue the process to pull and lift, the frame will begin to unfold.
- Edge: Secure the edge of the frame down to the support leg exactly the smaller leg which is attached to the edge the user has been pulling.
- Push: At last, its time to push the frame's edge after it's completely flat to lock it in the bed position. In order to release the lock or refold, simply pull the edge back towards the user and lift from the "A" top hinge.
