Size

A bunk bed is an excellent way to save room in your bedroom. It's also an excellent option for families with multiple children sharing a space or if you wish to provide additional sleeping space for guests. Bunk beds are usually built one over the other and are accessible through the ladder. They can be either metal or wood and come in a variety of sizes to fit your space. The size of the bunk bed is determined by the size of the mattress and the frame type. Traditional twin-over-twin bunks can accommodate standard twin mattresses while contemporary bunk beds usually have roomier full-size mattresses. Trundle, trundle-like or L-shaped beds can accommodate a queen or even king-sized mattresses for those who want more sleeping space.

The majority of bunk beds require 33 to 36 inches of space between the upper and bottom bunk mattresses. However, it's important keep in mind that a higher bunk might require more space, especially if children are on the top bunk. A bunk bed that is high can also be difficult for children to climb on, particularly those who are young. This is one reason why many parents opt to buy bunk beds that are divided into individual lofted beds. These beds offer the added benefit of providing more privacy for children and giving them the ability to adjust the height as they age.

A model with built-in futons is a great way to expand the space you sleep in. These beds can also serve as a comfortable seat during the day. Some even feature built-in storage drawers.

When selecting a bunk bed, it's worth taking into consideration the kind of ladder you'd prefer. A lot of models come with a straight ladder and others come with an angled ladder, or a staircase. Straight ladders are easy to assemble and take up less space. Staircases may look more stylish, but they will require a bit more assembly time. Some bunk beds have a slide that can be an ideal option for any child's bedroom.

Safety

While injuries to bunk beds can occur, they are typically a result of unsafe practices and poor construction, rather than a fault in the design or manufacture of the beds. It is essential to examine the safety features of your child's bed prior to allowing him to sleep in it. Also, ensure that any guests staying over are aware of how to use the bunk bed safely.

One of the most important aspects of bunk bed safety is that it has to be strong enough to withstand the weight of two children sleeping on it without breaking or falling over. It is also a good idea to ensure that all wooden parts are smooth and free of sharp edges or corners that could cause injuries. Additionally, any metal fasteners should not protrude from the bed's frame as these are prone to cutting or snagging clothing for children.

Another important security element is the guard rails. They should be at a minimum of five inches tall, and should be positioned along all sides of the mattress. There should be no gaps, openings or holes in the mattress or wall in which a child's head or body could be caught. These could pose serious strangulation hazards.

Also, ensure that your children do not hang anything on the bunk bed, including belts or scarves, as they could become tangled and create an extremely strangulation risk. It is also important to keep any sporting equipment from bunk beds, such as skipping ropes, as they can be an entanglement risk.

You should only let one child sleep on the top bunk, unless the child is older than six years older and you've taken the necessary steps to ensure they can safely climb the ladder up and down each day. It's also a good idea to store the ladder away at night so that children can't reach it and fall off the bunk bed. Remember to inspect the bunk bed on a regular basis for wear and tear or damage that could cause an accident.
