Instructions for installing the Valpas Bed Legs

Last updated 10 days ago

A Valpas-certified guest room combines smart bed legs and basic bed legs for complete protection.

The smart bed legs capture bed bugs discreetly at first contact, using a patented design that draws them in before they can reach the bed.

The basic bed legs complete the setup, ensuring every bed remains stable and fully protected—without chemicals or disruption to your guests.

Step 1: Get prepared

Make sure that you have all the required materials and tools for installation.

Step 2: Configure the smart bed legs

Install one smart bed leg per sleeper at the head of the bed, with a minimum of two smart bed legs per room.

Step 3: Attaching the smart bed legs to the bed

Smart legs are installed in the pillow end of the bed and basic legs as the remaining bed legs. See the pictures below for correct placement.

Install the basic legs at the remaining corners of the bed.

Make sure that the smart leg traps are easily accessible for inspection.

If the bed is positioned in a room corner with two sides against the wall, install the smart leg in the corner facing the room, not the corner against the wall, for easier access.

To attach the legs to the bed frame, use the provided adapter base plate or screw them into the existing threaded sockets on the frame. The pictures below illustrate both methods.
