How high does the mattress, foundation and frame have to be so that there is no gap between the mattress and the headboard?

The actual frame of the headboard when placed on the floor, measures about 24" from the floor to the bottom of the main headboard. So a combination of your frame and mattress, as long as it adds up to 24" you should have no gaps. But, what I do to fix it is use a few pillows. Hope that helped.

The headboard is somewhat adjustable however it's ideally suited for deeper mattresses. A standard metal frame , box spring, and mattress is completely fine. Along with the adjustments there won't be a gap.

No. I originally purchased a regular sized box spring, which made the actual mattress/box spring so high that it took away much of the headboard. I am currently using a half-height box spring, though I don't believe the bed requires one.

The mattress sticks put a few inches past the frame. It's no problem unless you wanted to add a footboard. The problem with this frame is that it comes without nuts to hold the bed together and the bolts are fixed in place, so you have to try a couple of sizes to get the right fit and can only use one of the two bolts in each section. I would not but this frame based on that information.

If I understand the question, you are concern about the vertical gap between the leather front of the headboard and the mattress. The leather material of the front face of the headboard is going all the way down to the top edge frame of the bed's platform - right to where the bottom part of the mattress meets the platform. Hope it is clear enough.

I have a box spring and about a 12 inch mattress. These end about 4 inches below the first shelf. My only suggestion is to take a black marker after assembly to the back 1/8 inch edges so it blends in. Overall, I love this headboard for the storage No end tables needed!

Only about a foot, and I bought the frame to use with a full sized mattress and the middle piece doesn't fit, so check it immediately upon arrival to make sure they sent you the correct pieces...

Guesstimating, about 11 to 12 inches between floor and boxsprings, but I have 5-inch extenders under my bedframe to raise the height of the bed.

I initially used it without a box spring and had a plywood board across the slats..but, after a few months I was over it and decided to get a box spring. Unless you have a very thick mattress there is a pretty big gap between the mattress and bottom of the headboard. I feel it's much better now.

A little over a foot but I have box springs so the bed sits higher. This frame is only for a mattress

About a foot from the floor to the frame, plus about two more inches for the mattress.

Yes, I think you would have to use a box spring unless you add extra slats for support. If you used just a mattress you would need a really thick mattress to reach the base of the headboard or else there would be a gap. I currently have mine with a box spring and mattress and it works well.

It would look best with a box spring. Without it you will have a big gap between your bed and headboard.

It looks very natural. You end up with a small gap about 5", at the base of the bed. This is one of the most sturdy bed frames I ever owned. We have ours positioned were the top is about a inch from the wall and it looks great.

21 inches from the floor to the bottom part of the upholstered headboard. I use mine with a regular metal frame and box spring. There is no gap from the top of the bed and the headboard if that's what you were asking.

I'm so sorry I don't have a tape measure. But my bed is pretty high. I dont have a extra thick mattress, and there is about a 3 inch gap from top of mattress to bottom of the head board. Its not a big notice, as I said in my review. I have lots of pillows and shams that I use.

I did not note a big gap -- we have put the twin mattress from her old bed on this frame and it works fine -- also standard bedding -- the one thing to note is that it is very difficult for an adult to get onto this bed and so changing the bedding has had to be simplified to something my seven year old can handle by herself with instructions from me -- for us this meant using only a fitted sheet with a comforter on top

Yes. There would be a gap between the headboard and the mattress because of the height of the headboard if you didn't use a box spring with it.
