Re: Squeaking box spring
Squeaking is always caused by something rubbing against another object. The question becomes what is rubbing? That's hard to determine, I'd suggest one of you be on the bed and move around to replicate the noise, the other on the floor playing investigator trying to isolate the area making the noise. In my experience, bed squeaks are caused by one of the following with # 1 being most prevalent, and # 4 the least.
1) The bed frame itself (if wood) may have a loose joint. This is the most common cause.
2) Where the box spring rests in the frame, or brackets, is having a friction point.
3) The box spring frame is loose on a corner, friction when moving is causing the squeak
4) An internal spring in the box spring is rubbing either another spring or a frame component.
See if you can isolate the source of the noise.
