Metal Crib Mattress Springs Support Hooks

Does anyone know where to buy replacements for the crib mattress springs support hooks for a reasonable price for my "vintage" crib manufactured in the late 1980's?

I put this baby bed away after my youngest child outgrew it and these parts were apparently misplaced while it was in storage.

I am now searching high and low for replacements for the four (4) metal hooks that attach the frame that supports the mattress springs. These parts are not in a commonly seen shape.

Crib Mattress Springs Support Hooks

The hooks have to be in place to support the mattress springs.






See what's available in crib replacement hardware on Amazon





The hooks are part number SH15 according to the information that I have seen.

It is also called a metal clip or some type of spring handle and is generally sold in sets of 4 which is what I need but I can't find them.

They are necessary for me to be able to hang the mattress springs frame from the headboard and footboard brackets of the crib.

I have attached a picture of the hardware to use as a reference.

If anyone has any suggestions for a resource that carries these crib mattress frame support hooks, please send me an email using the space below including your contact information so that I can get in touch with you if I need to.

Unique Baby Gear Ideas encourages our visitors help Susan find the hooks she needs if possible.

Rating sh15 spring handle hooks by: Anonymous found these hooks for sale on the web There is a company that advertises that they have the SH15 hooks available for order. I'm not sure if they are still in business though.

Rating Want to buy support hooks for crib mattress springs by: Anonymous I see that a lot of people are trying to find and buy these supports so surely some vendor will have them for sale. About 20 years ago I found and bought some replacements. Since that time I have let other family members use the crib and sadly it is now missing parts again. I would dearly love to find another set of these hooks so my granddaughter can sleep in the same crib that all the other babies in our family have slept in since back in the 1950s. Thank you all for your time and efforts in advance.

Rating Is there a replacement part by: Anonymous FWIW, I did find some of these hooks for sale but the seller was asking $50 for a used metal hook! If these exact style hooks are no longer available for a reasonable price, can anyone recommend a reasonable and safe alternative?

Rating SH 15 Hooks by: Anonymous We need 4 SH 15 hooks, also. Someone with a machine shop somewhere should start making them. They could sell a lot of them since it looks like they are in high demand

Rating Sh15 Crib Mattress Support Hooks by: Anonymous I am also unable to find the SH15 crib mattress support hooks that so many are searching for. It is very unfortunate that an entire crib is made unusable due to the lack of a simple part that should cost less than one dollar $1!
