The 10 Scariest Things About Kids Bunk Bed
Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are ideal for maximising space while reducing the cost of separate rooms. Look for models that have solid foundations and mattress supports to avoid gaps or spaces in which children may become stuck or entangled.
The way the bed is accessible is also a crucial aspect. Bunk beds are typically accessed via stairs or ladders and angled ladders take less space than traditional ladders that are vertical.
Space-saving Design
Bunk beds are the ideal way to maximize a small space. If you're looking to furnish an attic bedroom or even the most compact room in your home, bunk beds for kids can help you reduce floor space without giving up any comfort or style. The majority of bunk beds are twin over full or queen over twin configurations, so your children can share a bed, while having their own space. A bunk bed for three is also an ideal option, especially in the event that you plan to use the bottom bunk for a playroom or office during the daytime.
Most bunks come with an attached ladder to the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. For safety reasons the ladder's height should not exceed 5 to 6 feet away from the ceiling. This will prevent bumping heads and ensure that the child who sleeps on the top bunk does not sleep too high.
Consider a wooden bunkbed with stairs if you want your children's bedroom furniture to appear elegant. This will not only add a chic accent to your child's bedroom and provide plenty of storage space for all the books, toys and knickknacks they may need.
Some bunks can be converted to a futon. This lets your children make use of the lower bed as a sofa during the day and pull out the top futon in the evening for a comfortable place to sleep. This kind of bunk is great for rooms with a lot of space and your children are old enough to handle the additional sleeping space.
If you don't have the space for traditional bunks, look into options like a corner loft or bunk. These beds are placed across the corner of your children's rooms, which leave the remaining space for other furniture such as shelves or dressers. Some bunk beds have an attached desk, which means that your children can complete their homework while in their bed. This will help them to stay focused and instil good habits during study time.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are the ideal solution for kids who want to sleep in separate rooms but do not have the space to have two separate rooms. Most of our beds come with a ladder to make it easier for children to reach the top bunk. This is much safer than climbing over the sides of the bed, which could be risky. Kids should only climb the top bunk when they are able do it safely. This usually happens at least six years of age.
Many parents are enticed by straight ladders on bunk beds, but we recommend angles to increase security and ease of use. These ladders are easier to grip and provide a more pleasant experience. To climb up, kids simply place their feet on each step one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Think about a ladder that comes with handhole cutouts and anti-slip grooves to make it easier for children to hold onto the ladder as they climb.
If you're looking for a permanent solution, we have many different styles of stairs that can be permanently attached to the frame of the bunk bed. The stairs have a railing that surrounds the staircase for additional safety, and they have more treads to prevent falls and slips. You can select an option with built-in drawers for an appealing appearance. This is a great way to keep your child's bedroom neat and tidy.
A loft bed without a ladder that connects it to the bottom bunk is another option to reduce space. This allows more space for kids to play in and sleep underneath. Many of these bunk and loft beds are designed to resemble a treehouse or other fun structure, so they're a great choice for kids who love spending time outdoors. Some of our loft and bunk beds also feature an optional slide to add an extra element of fun.
