Hello, Mary -

Are you asking about a Pinehurst model crib made by Babi Italia and imported from China by LaJobi? If so . . .

That model of crib was recalled by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission in 2009. Read the information here:

By the way,

. . . LaJobi is no longer in business and repair kits are no longer available for recalled LaJobi products. Any LaJobi-made products that have been recalled should be discarded or destroyed.

Someone who is "crafty" could choose to re-purpose the crib into something else, like a bench.

Best wishes.

We have neither any hardware, not do we know how to get you some.
Please contact the manufacturer, using the computer .
God bless your efforts.

Thank you

Storkcraft had a recall on some of their cribs.IF it is a Storkcraft you have to call them and give them the model number.
These cribs were made between May 2000 and November 2008.They were sold until Jan.2009.
Even if your's isn't a Storkcraft you should be able to call the manufacturer of your crib and ask them.
Storkcraft,for one,did not post the model numbers that were recalled.
The manufacturing date can be found on the lower right hand corner of the instruction sheet which is glued on the mattress base.
The cribs were sold in various styles and finishes. The manufacture date, model number, crib name, country of origin, and the firm's name, address, and contact information are located on the assembly instruction sheet attached to the mattress support board. The firm's insignia "storkcraft baby" is inscribed on the drop side teething rail of some cribs.For more information, consumers may contact Stork Craft toll-free at 866-361-3321 anytime to order the free replacement kit or log on to the firms Web site.
These cribs have had recalls as well:
Jenny Lind crib model 6982 with lot numbers 8021, 8024, 8025, 8052, 8053, 8055, 8056, and 8070 and model 6983 with lot numbers 8022, 8023, 8026, 8027, 8031, 8032.
Aspen 3 in 1, Aspen 4 in 1, Nursery-in-a-Box, Crib N Changer Combo, Chelsea and Pooh 4 in 1. The recall also involves the following Simplicity cribs that used the Graco logo: Aspen 3 in 1, Ultra 3 in 1, Ultra 4 in1, Ultra 5 in 1, Whitney and the Trio.

The recalled cribs have one of the following model numbers, which can be found on the envelope attached to the mattress support and on the label attached to the headboard: 4600, 4605, 4705, 5000, 8000, 8324, 8800, 8740, 8910, 8994, 8050, 8750, 8760, and 8996.
13 babies in the US alone died as a result of the Simplicity cribs...in Canada most of them were sold in Zellers...but don't try to take it back there.
LaJobi and CPSC announced two recalls for 4,900 cribs.

First, 2,000 Bonavita "Cabana" cribs were recalled for slat failure -- the slats can come loose and/or break. LaJobi had ten reports of slats coming out of the rails and six reports of slats breaking.

Also, 2,900 Babi Italia "Pinehurst" cribs and Bonavita "Hudson" cribs were recalled for drop side failures.
Step 1 Register your baby crib as soon as you bring it home so you will receive product recalls automatically. Usually manufacturers ask you to register to validate warranty information but this will also register you to receive product recalls.

Step 2 Check the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission website regularly for recall information. This is a dependable resource that many consumers are not aware of.

Step 3 Visit your crib manufacturer's website occasionally and type in your crib name or number under their search option.

Step 4 Monitor the recall website www.recalls.gov that constantly updates recall information on all consumer products including baby cribs.

Step 5 Stay up to date with current news reports and printed media outlets. They are often the first to announce safety recalls and possible product issues.

EMAIL THIS PERSON. THEY SENT ME THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE BABI ITALIA GINA CRIB. IT WILL COME IN PDF FORM.
