Kids Beds Bunk
Bunk beds add drama to kids' rooms and provide a sense of adventure. Ms. Keenan adds a shelf to hold books or a reading light in every sleeping nook to make bunk beds more attractive to children.
Many of our kids beds can be converted into two twin beds in one which is ideal if you intend to have your children move into their own bedrooms at some point. Choose from finishes like white, brushed gray and rich walnut.
Stairs and ladders
If you're looking for bunk beds for kids, you have the option to select between stairs or ladders. Ladders can be easily installed and are also less expensive. They also provide an easy way to get into the top bunk bed. They are also considered to be safer than staircases, as they have a wider area for children to step on and a built-in handrail. Ladders often have grooves in the steps to prevent slips when climbing up and down the bed.
If you like the design and look of stairs, then they can make an elegant addition to your bunk bed. They can also be used in rooms with limited space as they do not protrude like ladders. They can be made from metal or wood, and they can match the wide variety of bedroom styles. Some staircases come with storage drawers which can be an excellent way to expand the size of bunk beds.
When choosing between a ladder or stairs, you should also consider the age of your child. While it is recommended that no one sleeps on the top bunk below the age of 6, older children who are comfortable with vertical climbing might be better off using stairs instead of a ladder. If you plan to use your bunk bed for guests, for example, younger children or adults with limited mobility, it's best to use stairs.
A straight staircase along the sides of the bunk requires a minimum of 95" of space on each side. If you don't have the space, you can choose the u-l shaped bunk beds for kids stairs that does not require as much space, but still allows you to reach the top bunk in a safe and securely. Certain beds let you remove the stairs when they are not in use. This reduces the footprint of the bed and makes it more adaptable to multi-purpose spaces. You can also find stairs that connect to the end of the bed and eliminate the requirement for a separate handrail, and makes it easier for children to climb up and down.
Guard Rails
Guard rails allow kids to climb in and out of their beds independently, giving them the feeling of independence and confidence. However, they must be placed properly, making sure that there are no gaps or loosening occurs between the rails of the guard and bed frame. Follow the instructions of the manufacturer when installing guard rails, and be sure to inspect them on a regular basis to ensure they are not loose or have holes that could result in the entrapment.
Keep bunk beds away from electrical appliances and other things that could become projectiles when your children are playing or sleeping. Place bunk beds away from windows to prevent the risk of falling when your children climb up on the upper floor.
One safety feature you might think about is a night lighting for the ladder; it will help illuminate the path up and down in the event that children awake at night to go to the bathroom or are woken during a storm, and need to get out of their room safely.
Another great security feature for bunk beds is a safety net, which can be placed on the top of the bunk to keep children from falling off while asleep or playing. This is a great idea for older children who are more likely to sleep on the top bunk.
Guardrails must be firmly attached to the bunk bed structure and not removable without the use of tools. The openings in the guardrail above the mattress base must not be more than 3.5 inches wide to avoid strangulation or entrapment. Place the wedge block shown on Figure 1 in every opening in the uppermost guardrail member, and above the mattress foundation. Apply 33 lbf (147 N) in a perpendicular direction to the plane of the largest edge of the block for a minute.
It's a good idea to inform your children to not hang any objects on the guardrail or ladder like belts, clothes, or sports equipment. Instead you should make use of an organized rack to keep these items from becoming an injury to your child. Make sure that no more than one child sleeps on the top bunk. This could lead to an unsafe imbalance and fall.
Mattresses
When choosing a mattress for bunk beds, consider your child's size and age. A bunk mattress should last at least eight years or until siblings are no longer sharing a bedroom. You'll want to choose one that can grow with your child, and still provide enough comfort as they age.
There are a myriad of options for bunk mattress sizes. They are typically full or twin size. If your child has asthma or allergies, choose an hypoallergenic mattress with a dust-mite barrier as well as a moisture-wicking cover. Mattresses that have an antimicrobial layer will protect the foam against harmful bacteria and germs.
The feel of your mattress is also crucial. Kids are usually heavier than adults and require a mattress which is firm, yet comfortable. Many hybrid and latex mattress come with a firm and softer side to meet the needs of both kids bunk bed bedding and adults.
Memory foam mattresses are good for kids but we don't recommend them as they tend not to cool effectively and can be hard on the spines of young children. Consider a latex or hybrid mattress, which provides strong support and cooling infusions for your child or guests to sleep comfortably.
Low-profile mattresses are usually the ideal choice for bunk beds for children. These are designed to be smaller than standard mattresses and increase safety rail height for the top bunk. They also reduce "filler" materials to provide premium quality in an ultra-slim design.
If your child would like to test a mattress that's more hefty than a regular bed, consider an hybrid or innerspring mattress with upper comfort layers that can be removed or replaced as the child grows. These models can provide you with an idea of the longevity of the mattress as your child grows. You can also add an extra bed skirt or mattress pad to prevent it from sliding. Some beds have a built-in lip or side rails to stop this from happening.
Stores

If you are unable to build a staircase to your bunk beds A ladder is a good alternative. They are constructed with a single socket Flange, Single Socket, and 90 Degree Side Outlet Fittings.

Another method to maximize space in a room that has bunk beds is to put up loft beds for kids that can be moved down to just above the floor. This lets you move desks, dressers or toy chests directly under the elevated beds. This is a real maximize of space and is a great choice for smaller bedrooms, or in a huge family home where the beds need to be able to accommodate several sleepers.
