Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are a great way to maximize space while saving money on separate rooms. Look for models with solid foundations and mattress supports that eliminate gaps or areas that children might get stuck or caught.
Another thing to consider is how the bed can be accessed: bunks usually feature ladders or stairs with angled ladders taking less space than traditional vertical ones.
Space-saving Design
Bunk beds are the ideal way to make the most of a tiny space. Whether you're looking to outfit an attic bedroom or the most compact room in your home, bunks for kids will help you save floor space without giving up any comfort or style. The majority of bunk beds are twin over full or queen over twin designs, which means your kids can share a bed, while having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is also an excellent choice, particularly if the bottom bunk will be used as an office or playroom during the daytime.
Most bunk beds have a ladder or staircase built into the frame. The ladder's height should not exceed 5-6 feet above the ceiling due to safety concerns. This will avoid head bumps and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk doesn't sleep too high.
If you're looking to keep your kids' bedroom furniture in style look into a wooden bunk bed with stairs. This will not only add a chic accent to your child's bedroom, but also provide ample storage space for all the toys, books and other knickknacks that they might need.
Some bunks also offer the ability to convert from a standard bed into the futon. This allows your kids to use the lower bed as an extra sofa during the day, and pull out the top futon at night to provide a comfortable place to sleep. This kind of bunk bed is great for those who have plenty of space and your children are old enough to manage the extra sleeping surface.
If you don't have the space to fit the traditional bunk bed, consider a corner loft or corner bunk. These beds are positioned in the corner of your kids' room, which leaves the remaining space for other kids' furniture, such as shelves or dressers. Additionally, some bunks have beds with a desk attached, which makes it easy for your little ones to do homework while lying down in the bed. This helps them remain focused during study time and encourages good habits.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are great for kids who want to sleep separately but don't have enough room to have two bedrooms. Many of our beds have a ladder that makes it easier for kids to reach the top bunk. This is safer than climbing the sides of the bed, which can be risky. Children should only climb onto the top bunk only if they are old enough to be able to do it safely, which is usually when they are at least six years old.
Many parents are enticed to buy bunk beds with straight ladders, we suggest choosing beds with angled ladders to increase safety and convenience. These ladders are easier to grasp and provide a more pleasant experience. To climb, kids put their feet on the rungs in a sequence and then move upwards until they reach the top bunk. Consider a ladder that has anti-slip grooves as well as handhole cutouts to allow youngsters to hold onto the ladder while they climb.
If you're looking for an option that is permanent, there are many different styles of stairways that can be permanently mounted to the frame of a bunk bed. They have a railing that encircles the staircase for additional safety and also a larger tread to prevent accidents and falls. You can select a set with built-in drawers for an attractive appearance. This is a great choice to keep your child's room clean and organized.
A loft bed that doesn't have an attached ladder to the bunk below is another method of reducing space. This allows more space for kids to play in and sleep underneath. These loft and bunk beds typically resemble a treehouse, making them an excellent choice for children who love being outside. Some of our bunk and loft beds include a slide to add an extra thrill.
