Metal Ear Type Bracket on a 1997 Simmons Baby Crib

Is there a store online where I can order the ear type brackets for a 1997 Simmons baby crib that are needed to hold the metal hooks? Unfortunately, a few ears of the ones that came with the crib have have been broken so we can not put the crib mattress on the bed.

Could everyone please check in your parts inventory and let us know whether you have that part lying around?

starstarstarstarstar 		Use 1/2” Conduits
by: Anonymous

I purchased four 1/2" conduits. I removed the broken plastic brackets but used those screws to add the new conduit. I used the top hole that was already made for the plastics bracket and drilled a hole for the bottom screw. It is easily moveable when the mattress needs to be moved down. It was easy and cost only a few dollars to fix!

I purchased four 1/2" conduits. I removed the broken plastic brackets but reused the same screws. I used the one hole that was already made from the bracket and drilled a second hole for the bottom screw to attach the conduit. You can easily adjust the conduit down when you need to adjust the mattress. It was simple and only took a few minutes to fix!

by: Jim / Grand Pa

We are going to need some of these too.. I am going to make some, anyone else want some? let me know... these will be made of metal or Nylon, got to talk to my shop guys. These won't break like plastic and if made of nylon, they won't squeak.

by: Anonymous

I too was looking for these brackets because one of the hooks snapped off when I placed the crib spring on.

I found this website but they are expensive.

I made myself some using steel, little thin flat stock and small round bars. They work great and will probably outlast the crib. It wasn't hard to do.

by: BNelson

I have been looking for 4 crib spring hooks. Sometimes they are called tunnel hooks. They attach to each corner of the springs to adjust height of mattress. I've looked everywhere.

Not sure when these requests were printed, but as of now, I have two sets of these crib brackets left over from the assembly of a crib we had for our granddaughters.

If anyone wants them, I will send them to you for the price of postage.

starstarstarstarstar 		I need the same brackets
by: Janet

I am in need of the same brackets for my children's bed, bought in 1983. The bed is in perfect condition except for the plastic brackets that broke when I tried to reassemble the bed for a grand nephew. There are safety recalls on some of the Simmons beds.....but this bed was used by many children other than my two and is safe ..This in a very special piece of furniture to our family....Surely there are parts somewhere!

Hi Lulu,

I'm sorry to say but I was unable to find these brackets (as they have been discontinued a long time ago) and had to buy a new crib for my baby. Thanks!

I am need of the same thing. My 1982 crib came back 20 years ago missing 2 of these ear type brackets and I just realized it today as I am cleaning it for a grandbaby. Did you ever locate these? I have seen on another website that they are no longer made and we have to convert to a bolt-in type support which do not work with the hangers attached to the spring unit. Here's hoping you were successful.
