Can I just replace the slats, and if so do you sell them? (they are not screwed in, just slot into the sides and middle where there is a central column of wood going down vertically. The slats are 6cm wide, with a gap of 5cm between them. 16 slats I think – if they don’t come apart in the middle, which I’m not sure about – if so, 32 slats, 16 each side of the bed). Or can I just turn the slats over - or will them break?
Otherwise, I have been advised to buy a piece of plywood (not sure which thickness) to put either over the top of the slats or instead of. Size needed 2005mm x 1525mm but with holes drilled in so air can get through - I have a latex mattress. But this doesn't seem an easy option if you don't know a good DIY person to help. Not sure if you can help with this, or any other ideas. Many thanks for your advice. Sarah
