Metal Slats Replacement

While I was pregnant, we had work done in our home which meant no access to the primary room. Contractors came to move all our furniture to one side. I ended up giving birth a month early so they were still finishing up while I was in the hospital. They rushed when they found out I was delivering. We have been laying on this bed for 4 months. The headboard screws on but the hooks face down, so every so often, it loosens and falls. I thought perhaps they just didn’t attach the headboard and it was something we could address later when I was recovered. I just lifted the mattress to find the slats completely in shambles—metal warped and a peg missing. What can I do here? They do not sell spare parts. Should I unscrew the metal slats and glue Velcro on the sides and stick the wooden slats from ikea? Hoping to not have to purchase a new frame. Any advice would be helpful. Tl;dr— Metal slats on bedframe warped. What can I do? submitted by /u/savpala [link] [comments]
