Hello everyone,
I am facing the following issue: I have an IKEA Malm bed that I want to securely fix to wooden floors without damaging the floor or choosing a fastening method that could affect the frame or floor in the long term. My main concern is the bed’s stability under normal use and how to prevent it from slipping.
Does anyone have experience securing Malm beds on wooden floors? Which fastening methods are effective, floor-friendly, and still reliable? Would it be better to use direct screwing, special clamps, or anti-slip mats, or are there possibly specific IKEA accessories designed for use on wooden floors?
I would appreciate any helpful tips or personal experiences!

Felt is usually too smooth.That’s a good point. Many recommend felt to protect the floor, but if it loses grip, it’s not helpful in the end.
I think I’ll get some thicker rubber pads and try them out in a few spots first.
Thanks to everyone who has supported me here with advice and detailed explanations!
