Bed struts

Are you looking voor bed struts? A pull down bed is stored vertically, with the bottom of the bed serving as a wall. By pulling down the bed, it is placed horizontally on the floor, so it can be used as a bed. The reason why a pull down bed can be easily folded and unfolded is due to the use of gas struts. Without a gas strut, folding the bed in and out would be much heavier. The gas strut provides a springy effect, which dampens the movement. If the gas strut loses its strength, you will have to fold the bed in and out on your own.
