Kids Beds Bunk Bunk beds can add drama to kids rooms and provide an excitement Ms Keenan adds a shelf to hold books or a reading light in each sleeping nook to make bunk beds more appealing to children A lot of our bunk beds for kids can be made into two twin beds This is a great option for those who plan to move them to their own bedroom in the future Choose from finishes like brushed gray cream white and rich walnut Stairs and ladders When you are choosing a bunk bed for your kids you have the option to choose between stairs or ladders Bunk Beds Store are more affordable and easy to install and provide an easy way to climb into the top bed They are also considered safer than staircases because they have a bigger surface for children to walk on and have a builtin handrail Ladders often have grooves in the steps to prevent slips when climbing up and down the bed However if you prefer the design and style of stairs they could be a beautiful addition to your bunk bed Staircases are also ideal for rooms that are limited on space since they dont obstruct the space like ladders do They can be constructed of wood or metal and are able to match a wide range of bedroom designs Some staircases are even equipped with storage drawers They are a great way to add more space to the bunk bed When choosing between a staircase and a ladder you should also consider the age of your child It is recommended that nobody sleep on the top bunk under the age of 6 children who are comfortable with climbing vertically might be better off using stairs rather than a ladder In addition when youre thinking of using your bunk bed as guest beds for smaller children or for adults with a limited mobility stairs are the most suitable option A straight staircase that runs along the side of the bed will require 95 of space on either side If you do not have enough space you could opt for a u shaped staircase which doesnt require as much space but allows you to access the top bunk in a safe and securely Some beds have the option of removing the stairs when not in use which reduces their footprint and makes them more suitable for rooms that can be used in multiple ways You can also find stairs that connect to the bottom of the bed which eliminates the requirement for a separate handrail and makes it easier for children to climb up and down Guard Rails Guard rails give children the confidence and independence to climb into and out of beds on their own They must be set in a proper way to ensure there arent any gaps or loosening between the guardrails and the frame of the bed If you choose to use guard rails make sure you follow the manufacturers instructions and check them on a regular basis for any holes or looseness that could lead to the entrapment Keep bunk beds out of electrical appliances and other items that can become projectiles while your children are playing or sleeping Make sure you place bunks away from windows which can cause a risk of falling if kids get up on the top of the bed It is possible to install a nightlight on the ladder to light the way up and down if your child wakes at the end of the night to use the bathroom or if they are woken by an erupting storm and have to leave their room A safety net can be put up on top of the bunk to stop children from falling out when they sleep or play This is a great idea particularly for older children who tend to sleep on the top bunk The guardrails must be securely attached to the bunk beds They cannot be removed without tools The openings in the guardrails that are above the mattress foundation should not be more than 35 inches to avoid entrapment and strangulation Place the wedge block shown on Figure 1 in each opening of the uppermost guardrail member and above the mattress foundation Apply an amount of 33 lbf 147 N in a perpendicular direction to the plane of the largest edge of the block for 1 minute Its a good idea instruct your children not to hang any items on the ladder or guardrail such as belts clothing and sports equipment Instead you should use a clothes rack to prevent these items from becoming an injury to your child Also ensure that more than one kid should not sleep on the top level of the bunk since this can create a dangerous imbalance which may result in falls Mattresses When choosing a mattress to use for bunk beds consider the size of your child and their age A bunk mattress should last for at least eight years or until siblings are no longer sharing a bedroom You should select one that can grow with your child and still provide adequate comfort as they age Bunk mattresses are usually fullsize or twin and there are a variety of options that will be suitable for either If your child has asthma or allergies choose an hypoallergenic mattress with an antidust barrier and a moisturewicking cover Kids are likely to experience many spills and accidents so a mattress with an antimicrobial layer will help keep the foam safe from harmful bacteria and germs Another factor to consider is the mattresss feel Children typically weigh less than adults which means they require a mattress that feels firm but also comfortable A lot of hybrid and latex mattresses have an extra firm side as well as a soft side to accommodate both childrens needs Memory foam mattresses are great for kids but we dont recommend them as they tend not to cool well and can be hard on the spines of young children Think about a hybrid or latex mattress that provides solid support and cooling infusions to your child or guests to sleep comfortably A mattress with a low profile is usually the best option for kids bunk beds These are designed to be slimmer than regular mattresses and maximize safety rail height for the top bunk They also eliminate filler materials to offer top quality and slim designs If your child is looking to test a mattress thats more hefty than a regular mattress think about an hybrid or innerspring model with comfort layers on the top that can be removed or replaced as your child grows These models will give you a clear idea of how the mattress will perform as your child grows and you can always add a mattress pad or bed skirt to stop it from sliding off the frame Some beds have side rails or lip builtin to prevent this Storage Bunk beds are a great option to make space in shared childrens rooms Bunk beds can also be a costeffective alternative to purchasing two large single beds Many bunks offer the option to add a trundle that can be placed underneath the bottom bunk when not being used To maximize storage and space in a room with bunk beds consider installing a combination kids bedroom furniture set that includes dressers desks or bookcases This will allow you to keep all your childs personal items clothing and toys in one place without cramming them into overstuffed closets or chests These sets of kids bedroom furniture are available from a variety of retailers They meet federal safety standards Stacked bunks are an ideal playground for the imagination as kids can transform the spaces beneath into cozy hideaways and secret play zones Designer Elizabeth Georgantas stacked 6 bunks in this room for the ultimate space for kids that can be used for playing sleeping and even twirling superhero capes The room is decorated with the bubble wallcovering of Chasing Paper and a ceiling painted in Benjamin Moore Blue Jean to create the ultimate getaway If youre unable to construct a staircase to your bunk beds then a ladder is a simple alternative The ladders are constructed with a combination of Single Socket Tee Flange and 90 Degree Side Outlet Tee fittings and can be easily adjusted to increase or decrease the distance between rungs of a ladder to make it easier for toddlers to climb The ladder rungs are set directly on the ground instead of above to make climbing easier Another way to maximize space in a room with bunk beds is to install loft kids beds which can be lowered to just above the floor This allows you slide desks dressers or toy chests underneath the beds on top This is an excellent way to maximize space in bedrooms that are small or in large family homes where beds have to be sufficient for multiple people to sleep
