How to disassemble the playpen

Many parents are faced with the problem of disassembling the playpen. If the child has grown up and such a design no longer suits him, then it is time to remove it. Folding the playpen is quite simple if you still have the instruction manual. But usually by this point it is lost and impossible to find. We suggest you use the general rules and will describe all actions in order.

What types of playpens are there?

Currently, there are a lot of developments for children in clothing, furniture, and food, which are created with the aim of improving their development and safe life. For the safety of the child and the peace of mind of the parents, special structures with high sides have been developed that do not allow the child to fall out and get injured. There is a range of models that differ in characteristics:

• the material from which the body is made: metal, plastic, wood;
• shape: round, square, rectangular, etc.;
• fencing method: crib, fence in the form of an opening screen made of wooden fencing;
• type of wall covering: mesh, longitudinal partitions;
• sizes - individual for each child.

IMPORTANT! Such a device remains relevant only until a certain age and growth of the baby, until he can climb over the edge on his own.

Previously, the structures were solid, which was a big drawback. Playpens, after they were no longer needed, were put away in storage rooms and took up a lot of space.Now they have been replaced by collapsible options that can be folded and neatly placed on a shelf.

How to disassemble the playpen

If you still have the instructions or you roughly remember how you assembled the crib, then taking it back apart won’t be too difficult. Just follow all steps in reverse order. Each model has its own design and installation steps.

IMPORTANT! All parts must be removed carefully and without sudden movements. Do not try to forcefully solve the problem, this will only damage the frame.

If the instructions have not been preserved, and the box has long been lost, then you should adhere to the following plan.
