They can rest directly on the slats of a bed frame without adding to the height or bulkiness of the bed.
Can you use a bunkie board on a metal bed frame.
The good news is that you ll almost certainly be able to find a bunkie board that matches the dimensions of your metal frame which can help deliver the support you need.

For a plain metal bedframe like that you ll probably want at least 5 8 or 3 4 inch plywood.
You can also use them with memory foam or other foam mattresses since they add solid even support.
If your platform bed or bed frame has a solid plywood top rather than slats there is no need for an additional bunkie board.
My bed is not a bunkie bed just regular bed frame can the bunkie board sit on the frame ok.
It depends on the bunkie board and how substantial it is.
Or do i need to drill holes thru the board and screw the board into the frame.
For this reason bunky boards work well with platform beds if you re looking to add some additional support to the slat system.
Just be sure to carefully place the bunkie board on the frame or you could tear the fabric.
Do you need a bunkie board.
Currently i have a full size boxspring and a mattress sitting on top of a metal bed frame.
People sometimes purchase an inexpensive bunkie board when their bed starts to sag to stave off purchasing an entirely new set.
Bunkie boards can be placed between the bed platform and the mattress between metal or wood bed slats and the mattress or on top of a box spring beneath the mattress.
Whether or not you need a bunkie board depends on the kind of mattress you own.
