Buying Bunk Beds Kids Bunk beds for children are a great way to let siblings share a room without compromising personal space. They are also a great option when hosting sleepovers. Depending on the model that you select, these beds could include ladders or stairs to access the top bunk, and they can be made from a variety of materials like wood and metal. Size Check the dimensions of your room to the measurements of a bunk bed before you buy it. It is important to ensure that there's enough room for your children to climb up and down the ladder (or stairs if the bunk has stairs) and to maneuver around the loft without bumping into walls or furniture. It is also important to take into consideration the dimensions of the bunk bed as well as headroom in relation with your child's standing and sitting height. You might need to purchase an earlier-sized bunk to accommodate smaller children, whereas older children might prefer a higher-upset. Bunk beds for kids generally come in two different configurations including twin-overtwin and full-overfull. Both are great options for accommodating multiple kids in one room. Some bunks include the option of a trundle to allow for additional guests for sleepovers. If your children are young, consider a low-level bunk bed so that the lowest bunk is not more than 50 inches above the floor. This will keep your children from falling out of their beds, which is a safety hazard. Another feature to consider is the amount of space between the top bunk and the guardrails. The CPSC recommends that the top bunk's mattress to not be higher than 5 inches above guardrail. This will stop your children from slipping out of bed in the middle night and falling into the guardrails. This could lead to an entrapment or even a fall. The most suitable bunk beds for children are made of sturdy materials and meet CPSC safety standards, according to Ganjian. You should also look at the design of each bed to make sure that it's made of high-quality wood and isn't overly fragile or unstable. Some of the more expensive bunk beds for kids also feature mortise and tenon joints, and are Greenguard Gold Certified. The triple bunk bed from Pottery Barn will work well as a guest bedroom or as a holiday home or even to sleep your children. It's simple to assemble and includes all the necessary tools. If your kids outgrow it, you can turn it into three freestanding beds. It is available in a neutral finish that can be matched with muted or vibrant shades, such as brushed gray or weathered blue. Safety Bunk beds are a great and exciting addition to any child's bedroom however, they can be dangerous if they are not correctly assembled or used. Bunk bed injuries can occur to children of any age but they are more frequent in children younger than six years old. It is important to follow the manufacturer's safety and assembly instructions and use the correct mattress size, and place the bunk beds so that they do not interfere with windows, heaters, or hanging lights. It is also recommended to check the bunk bed for signs of wear and tear, and make repairs as required. The top bunk's height should be kept to a maximum of four feet, and there should be a guardrail on both sides of the bed. The space between the guardrails should be no larger than 3 ½ inches to avoid suffocation and ensure that your child doesn't fall under the guardrail when sleeping. The mattress at the bottom should be supported by slats or wires that are directly beneath the bunk and are fastened securely at both ends to avoid the possibility of a gap that your child might fall through. Ladders and stairs should be securely attached to the bunk beds and provide a safe method to get to the top level. Be sure that the ladder isn't in close proximity to any dangers and that your kids know they can only use it to climb up into bed. Avoid rough play on the bunks as this can compromise their stability. It is not possible to determine a specific age at which children can sleep in bunk beds. However, many experts suggest that children do not sleep on the top bunk until they are at least six years of age and are mature enough to sleep in a still position. If you're unsure if your child is ready to climb the top bunk, go for a twin/full size bunk. Style Bunk beds allow kids to share a room and stay close to their peers while making the most of space. They are also a great way to foster teamwork among younger children and make sleepovers more fun for everyone involved. Bunks that include desks are ideal for teenagers and older kids because they incorporate sleeping and study furniture into one. Bunks with stairs or ladders make it easier and safer for kids to climb to the top bunk. You can personalize your bunk bed by choosing the size, style, and other features you'd like to have. The kind of mattress you select will determine the level of comfort your bunk bed will feel. At Slumberland we have a wide selection of premium-quality mattresses for all types of bunk beds.

Other features of the style to consider include ladders and stairs, safety rails, and additional storage options. Some bunk beds come with standard ladders that attach to the sides of the frame, whereas others feature a set stairs built into the frame. Staircases are a good option for older children and teenagers because they are more secure than standard ladders and offer modern, sleek design. You can also customize your bunk beds by selecting the color scheme that best matches the personality of your children or the decor of your rest room. Some bunk beds are finished in white, while others are finished in dark cherry wood or natural wood. If you're purchasing an wooden bed you can paint it to match the color scheme of your children's rooms or stain it to keep an authentic look. You can add a personal touch to your bunk beds by investing in decorative lighting that matches the theme or design. For kids bunk bed , recessed lights can be hung from the ceiling to provide ample lighting without occupying floor space. If you have a wooden or metal bunk bed, you may also want to add swag lights that hang from the ceiling. They offer soft lighting. Storage The main feature of bunk beds is their ability to create more space in your child's bedroom by stacking two beds one over the other. The design often allows these beds to be stacked until your kids get older and tweens, or they can be divided into separate free-standing bed frames, which is ideal for families that are often moving or living in smaller homes. These bunk beds are available in various configurations. They include the classic twin over twin, full over twin and queen over queen (like Crate & Barrrel Babyletto TipToe White and Waxed Natural Wood Bunk Bed). They can be set up in various heights, and some even come with a step-ladder inclined to make it easier to climb. When choosing a bunk bed, you should also consider its construction. Certain models are constructed from a mix of medium-density fibreboard and kiln dried hardwood. While the former is less expensive and has more modern appearance but the latter is sturdier and more durable. Bunks with mattresses that trundle are great for sleepovers. Some models allow for the addition of another trundle with another configuration. These beds can comfortably accommodate three children or adults, which can be ideal for a space that encourages family bonding while maximising the use of space. The color and design are the last aspects to take into consideration. Crisp whites, neutral greys and subtle finishes in clay can be combined with any decor for bedrooms. A clean white bunk bed is an excellent pick for cottage, coastal or bright bedrooms and a neutral gray or clay option will seamlessly blend with the various palettes as your child grows and develops into a person. While the cost of a bunk bed will vary, most models come with an affordable price that is comparable to other types of bedroom furniture. Some lower-priced bunk beds are made of less expensive materials, however many of our top-rated models are durable enough to endure through childhood and beyond.
