ID:	107591 our new rv came with an over an bed but no bed rail to keep our granddaughter from rolling out. A trip to Lowes and some poplar fixed the situation. It slides into the ladder hooks

I am very interested in building this, but I just can't seem to get the orientation from the picture - and I am standing on my head.....

Sorry having issues with photos. It was pretty simple. 1x3 poplar ripped to fit in the ladder brackets. 1/2"x3 horizontals and end verticals. Glue and screws used to assemble. Drops right into place. 48" wide. 15" tal

Not bad - I experimented with cargo netting - did not turn out great

I fashioned a similar railing out of 1/2 PVC pipe to save weight. Solera runs close to the max. Works great to keep grandkids in.

Seems like a natiral

I keep wondering why Forest River does not offer something to fill this need. There have to be a lot of people with kids or grandkids who sleep and roll around up there. Sure did not want my grand daughter to roll out. Will probably look at PVC for the second gen.
