Kids Beds BunkBunk beds can add drama to kids’ rooms, and they also provide them with an excitement. Ms. Keenan adds a shelf to store books or a reading light in every sleeping nook to make bunk beds more attractive to children.Bunk Beds Store of our bunk beds for kids can be converted into two twin beds. This is ideal for those who plan to move them into their own bedroom in the near future. Choose from finishes like brushed gray, creamy white and rich walnut.Stairs or laddersYou can pick between stairs and ladders when you are choosing bunk beds for kids. Ladders can be installed easily and are cheaper. They also provide an easy way to get into the top bunk bed. They are also more secure than stairs since they provide a greater surface area for children to walk on and include an integrated handrail. Ladders often have grooves in the steps to prevent slipping when climbing up and down the bed.If you like the design and style of stairs, they could be a beautiful addition to your bunk bed. Staircases are also suitable for rooms that are limited on space since they don’t protrude into the space like ladders do. They can be constructed from wood or metal, and they can match a wide range of bedroom designs. Some staircases have integrated storage drawers that are a great way to increase the size of a bunk bed.When deciding between a staircase and a ladder it is important to consider the age of your child. It is recommended that no one sleeps on the top bunk under the age of 6, older children who are comfortable with vertical climbing might be better off using stairs rather than a ladder. If you intend to use your bunk bed to accommodate guests, such as older children or adults with limited mobility, it’s best to choose stairs.A straight staircase along the side of the bunk requires a minimum of 95″ of space on each side. If you don’t have that space, you can choose a u-shaped staircase that doesn’t require as much space but still offers a secure and safe means of accessing the top bunk. Certain beds let you disconnect the stairs when they’re not being used. This reduces the footprint of the bed and makes it more suited to multi-purpose spaces. There are also stairs that connect to the bottom of the bed. This eliminates the need for separate handrails, and makes it easier to climb up and to the bottom for children.Guard RailsGuard rails provide children with the confidence and independence to climb into and out of beds on their own. They must be positioned correctly to ensure that there aren’t any gaps or loosening between the guardrails and the bed frame. If you choose to use guard rails, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and check them regularly for any looseness or holes that could lead to the entrapment.One of the most important safety tips for bunk beds is to ensure they are kept away from electrical devices and other items that could become projectiles when your kids play or sleep. Make sure you place bunks away from windows, which can pose a fall risk when children climb up to the top floor.You may want to install a nightlight on the ladder to light the ladder’s climb and descent if your child wakes at night to use the bathroom, or wake up due to the sound of a storm and are forced to leave their bedroom.A safety net can be put up on top of the bunk to stop children from falling off while they sleep or play. This is especially a good idea for older kids, who may be more likely to sleep in the top bunk.Guardrails should be secured to the bunk bed structure and not removable without the use of tools. The guardrail openings above the mattress foundation should not be more than 3.5 inches wide to prevent strangulation or entrapment. Place the wedge block as shown in Figure 1 in each of the openings in the topmost guardrail member and over the mattress foundation. Apply 33 lbf (147 N) in a perpendicular direction to the plane of the large edge of the block for one minute.It is also recommended to teach kids not to hang anything on the ladders or guardrails for example, such as clothing, belts and sports equipment; instead a clothes rack should be used to ensure that these objects don’t become a strangulation hazard for your child(ren). Also, make sure that more than one kid should not sleep on the top level of the bunk, since this could create an unsafe imbalance that could result in falls.MattressesConsider the age of your child and their size when selecting a mattress for a bunk beds. A bunk mattress will last for at least eight years, or until siblings are no longer sharing the same bedroom and you’ll need to pick one that’s designed to adapt to the needs of your child and still provide adequate support as they grow older.There are a myriad of options for bunk mattress sizes. They are typically full or twin size. If your child suffers from allergies or asthma choose an hypoallergenic mattress with a dust-mite barrier and moisture-wicking cover. Mattresses with an antimicrobial coating will shield the foam from harmful bacteria and germs.Another crucial aspect to consider is the mattress’s feel. Kids generally weigh less than adults, which means they require mattresses that feel firm, but also comfortable. A lot of hybrid and latex mattresses come with a firm side and a soft side that can accommodate both children’s requirements.Memory foam mattresses are good for kids but we don’t recommend them as they tend not to cool well and can be hard on the spines of young children. Consider a hybrid or latex mattress instead, which offer solid support with cooling infusions that will keep your child or guest sleeping cool and comfortable.A low-profile mattress is often the best choice for children’s bunk beds. These mattresses are designed to be smaller than normal mattresses, and maximize the safety rail’s height on the top bunk. They also minimize “filler” materials to provide top quality and a slim design.If your child is looking to try a mattress more hefty than a regular mattress, think about an hybrid or innerspring mattress with upper comfort layers that can be removed or replaced as your child develops. These models will give you an idea of the longevity of the mattress as your child grows. You can also include an extra bed skirt or mattress pad to prevent it from sliding. Some beds have side rails or lip built in to prevent this.StoresBunk beds are a great alternative to save space in shared rooms for children. They also can be an affordable alternative to buying two separate single beds. Many bunks allow to add a trundle which can be put underneath the bottom bunk when not in use.To maximize space and storage in a room with bunk beds, consider installing a combination kids bedroom furniture set that includes dressers, desks and/or bookcases. This will let you keep all of your child’s personal items such as clothing, toys and clothes in one location without having to cram them into overstuffed closets or chests. The sets of kids bedroom furniture are sold at a variety of stores. They meet federal safety standards.The stacking bunks provide an ideal playground for children, as children can transform the spaces below into hidden spaces for play or cozy spaces. Designer Elizabeth Georgantas stacked 6 bunks in this room to create the ultimate kids space that can be used to sleep, play and even twirling superhero capes. The room is decorated with bubble walls covered with Chasing Paper and a ceiling painted in Benjamin Moore Blue Jean to create the ultimate escape.If you are unable to build an entryway to your stacked bunk beds then a ladder is an option. The ladders are constructed using a combination Single Socket Flange, Single Socket Degree Side Outlet Fittings. They can be easily adjusted in order to increase or decrease distance between the ladder rungs. The ladder rungs are also positioned in a straight line with the ground rather than above to facilitate climbing.Installing loft beds that can be lifted to just above the floor is another way to maximize space in the bunk bed room. This allows you to slide desks, dressers or toy chests underneath the beds that are elevated. This is a great method to maximize space in bedrooms that are small or in large family homes where beds have to be sufficient for multiple people to sleep.
