I bet that van wanted the bottom half doors for the garage and didn't want the bed area wide open. If so, it would've been better to make a wall in the bedroom that would leave about 8 inches of hanging storage space for the full-length two door garage.

Hi matt, thanks for watching our videos, glad you liked them! 😁 Yes we did put a central support in, there was too much flex in the slats. We got them off of amazon, I've just had a look for a link for them for you but they are currently unavailable, I'm pretty sure there were quite a few on there tho when we were looking. I think our slats were approx 20mm thick.

May I ask what is the exact width of the gap inside the mid beam that your wooden bed legs slot up into (ie, the ends, not the rolled main length) ? My build is being held up for another 2 weeks waiting for delivery of two of these beams & because I don't know this measurement I can't install the legs, or my bulkhead & thus move on, I didn't bank on the 3-4wk delivery from Ikea... 🙈
