There are a few different styles when it comes to the metal bed frame and most will be quite basic.

The typical metal double bed frame will come with two long side rails, which attach to two bars at both the top and foot of the bed. The side rails are angled so that they can old wooden cross bars, which will be what you can place your box spring on. These bars will help to support your box spring and mattress and provide and easy way to keep your bed up off the floor. Additionally, because many of these frames come with wheels, it is easy to move the bed away from a wall for cleaning or making the bed.

Many people will create a freestanding head board which can be decorated any way you choose and when you feel like changing the decor, you can easily change your headboard to match.

Another fun way of utilizing metal double beds is to set your bed out from the wall and use a canopy attached to the ceiling directly above the bed. Sheer panels can encase the entire bed in a very ethereal and relaxing type of atmosphere.
