Will a twin bed frame fit a full?

The straight answer will be no. This is because a full mattress is twice the width of a regular twin bed frame. If you were trying to force a full mattress into a twin bed frame you will most likely break the bed frame or the twin mattress will be bent and no longer go back into a flat position anymore. As a result, it may not be usable in any bed frames. On the off chance it can go back into position, it may take a while and you may be better off buying a new mattress and selling the damaged full mattress to someone else for materials.
