• Struts – These attach to your bed frame with screws, similar to floor-standing. The only difference? They're not full length. Instead, they use struts. These are pieces of sturdy material which attach to both your bed and single headboard.
• Wall-mounted – If the head of your bed is against a wall, you can choose a wall-mounted headboard. Usually, they're attached by hooking a cleat plate, on the back of the headboard, over a cleat screwed to the wall.
