Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Bunk beds for children are a great choice to save money while maximizing space. Find beds with sturdy foundations, and mattress supports to prevent gaps or areas where children can become trapped or trapped.
The method by which the bed is accessed is also important. Bunk beds are usually accessed via stairs or ladders, and angled ladders take up less space than standard ladders that are vertical.
Space-Saving Design
Bunk beds are the ideal way to make the most of a tiny space. If you're looking for a way to decorate an attic bedroom or even the most compact room in your home, bunks for kids help you reduce floor space without giving up any comfort or style. Most bunk beds have twin over full or twin over queen configurations, so your children can sleep side by side while still having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent option, particularly if the bottom bunk will be used as a playroom or office during the daytime.
The majority of bunk beds have a ladder or staircase built into the frame. For safety reasons the ladder's height should not exceed 5 to 6 feet from the ceiling. This will avoid head bumps and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk doesn't rest too high.
If you want to keep your kids' bedroom furniture in style, consider choosing a wooden bunk bed that has stairs. This not only provides an additional stylish element to your children's room however, it also offers ample storage space for each book, toy and knick-knack they may require to store away.
Some bunks can also be converted to a futon. This lets your children use the lower bed as an extra sofa during the day, and pull out the top futon at night to provide an incredibly comfortable bed. This type of bunk bed is great when you have enough space and your kids are old enough to be able to handle the extra sleeping space.
If you do not have the space to fit a traditional bunk bed, look into a corner bunk or loft. These beds are positioned in the corner of your child's rooms, which leave the remaining space for other kids' furniture, such as shelves or dressers. Some bunk beds come with an attached desk, which means that your kids can do their homework while still in their bed. This helps them remain focused during study time and encourages good habits.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are perfect for kids who want to be able to sleep independently but don't have enough room to create two separate bedrooms. Most of our bunk beds come with a ladder that makes it simple for children to climb up to the top bed. This is more secure than climbing the sides of the bunk bed, which can be risky. Children should only climb on the top bunk when they are able do it safely. This is usually at least six years of age.
Many parents are tempted by straight ladders on bunk beds, but we recommend angled ladders to increase the safety and ease of use. These ladders are more comfortable to hold and offer a smoother experience. To climb, children place their feet on the rungs in a sequence and move up until they reach top bunk. To ensure security, you should consider a ladder that has grooved anti-slip steps and hand holes that make it easier for children to hold onto as they climb.
If you're looking for a permanent solution, we offer 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 to provide additional security, and they have an extra wide tread to avoid slips and falls. You can select a set with built-in drawers for a more decorative appearance. This is a great option to keep your child's bedroom organized and tidy.
A loft bed that doesn't have a ladder that connects it to the bunk below is another way to save space. This leaves more room for kids to play and sleep on. These loft and bunk beds often resemble a fun treehouse, which makes them an excellent choice for children who love being outside. Some of our loft and bunk beds come with a slide for an extra touch of fun.
