An adjustable height device for aiding in the stretching of a sheet. The device may include a bracket for attaching the device to a bottom surface of a bed frame, a first connector attached to the bracket by a first rotating element so that the first connector can rotate about the first rotating element with respect to the bracket, a telescoping shaft attached to the first connector by a second rotating element so that the telescoping shaft is rotatable about the second rotating element with respect to the first connector, and a gripping device attached to the telescoping shaft by a second connector. The telescoping shaft may be made of an inner shaft slidably inserted into an outer shaft. The gripping device may include a base having a first gripping surface and a movable element having a second gripping surface rotatable about a rotational axis with respect to the base.
