Abstract

A modular headboard for a bedstead includes an upper headboard section and a lower headboard section selectively coupled together for convenient storage and transportation. The upper headboard section includes laterally-spaced, vertically-extending upper post sections and a headboard panel extending therebetween. The lower headboard section includes corresponding lower post sections, with cross rails extending between the lower post sections. A laterally-extending slat overlaps adjacent edges of the upper and lower headboard sections to facilitate alignment of the upper and lower headboard sections, and is secured to the headboard sections to form a stable headboard.
