A crib dropside assembly is provided by the invention, including hardware for permitting the dropside to be raised or lowered with respect to a crib. The dropside includes a pin track including relatively long and relatively short, generally vertical segments, and a connecting segment connecting the relatively long and short segments. A pin access slot extends into one of the segments, and has an open end for permitting the entrance of a pin. The pin is preferably coupled to one of the crib endboards. A movable gate is provided for blocking the pin access slot when in a first position and opening the pin access slot when in a second position. An end cap may further be provided for providing access to a second slot formed in the dropside. The end cap may include a glide surface which bears against a crib corner post, thereby allowing the dropside to operate smoothly.
