Things You'll Need:
- Flat head screwdriver
- Philips head screwdriver
- Replacement part
-
Step 1
Assess the damage to the crib. Do not use tape or glue to repair any part of a crib. Structural damage to a crib will require an entirely new piece of that section to ensure the highest safety standard.
-
Step 2
Order a new part to replace that piece of the crib. You can either order directly from the crib manufacturer or another replacement part site. See Resources.
-
Step 3
Have your child sleep in another crib until the new part arrives and is installed. Having your child sleep in a damaged or broken crib can be very hazardous.
-
Step 4
Remove the broken or damaged part from the crib by unscrewing it from the remaining frame parts. Throw out the damaged or broken part.
-
Step 5
Attach the new part to the crib by screwing it directly into the same location as the previous part. The new part should fit snugly and securely without any gaps or breaks.
