Crib Spring Mattress Support Hooks for a Simmons model 5306 94 117

According to the manufacturer’s published information, replacement parts were originally requested by locating the crib’s model number and submitting a parts inquiry through the manufacturer’s official parts or warranty channel. That process is typically referenced in Simmons documentation for older crib models.

While researching how these parts are described, I reviewed various crib-parts and DIY reference sites using search terms such as "Simmons crib mattress support hook" and similar phrasing. This turned up a range of unverified listings, which highlights how inconsistently these parts have been labeled over time.

This information is shared for identification and reference purposes only. It is not intended as guidance on selecting, installing, substituting, or using crib hardware.

When reviewing historical records, these hooks are typically distinguished by factors such as overall shape, mounting style, and how they attach to the mattress support frame and crib structure. Accurate identification usually depends on confirming the crib’s full model number (in this case, 5306 94 117) and locating any original manufacturer label still present on the crib.

Based on descriptions found in Simmons assembly materials, the part in question is often referred to as a small metal support handle or hook that connects the mattress spring frame to the crib’s support brackets.

Because this hardware is associated with older crib designs, listings found outside of manufacturer documentation are not verified for compatibility or safety. Only the original manufacturer can confirm whether a specific part was designed for a given crib model or whether it meets current safety standards.
