Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are a great way to maximize space while reducing the cost of separate rooms. Find beds with solid foundations and mattress supports that stop gaps or spaces where children could get stuck or caught.
Another thing to consider is how the bed is accessed: bunks usually feature staircases or ladders and angled ladders take up less room than standard vertical ones.
Space-Saving Design
Bunk beds are the perfect way to make the most of a tiny space. Whether you're looking to outfit an attic bedroom or the smallest room in your home, bunk beds for kids will help you save floor space, without giving up any comfort or style. Most bunk beds offer twin over full or twin over queen designs so that your kids can sleep side by side while still having their own space. A bunk bed for three is also a great option, especially if you plan to use the lower bunk as an office or playroom during the day.
The majority of bunk beds come with an escalator or ladder built into the frame. To ensure safety, the height of the ladder should not exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling. This is to avoid bumped heads while making sure that the kid sleeping on the top bunk isn't too high.
Consider a wooden bunkbed with stairs for your kids' bedroom furniture to look stylish. Not only will this add an extra stylish touch to your kids' room however, it also offers ample storage for every book, toy or items they'll require to put away.
Some bunks can be expanded from a bed to a futon. This lets your children make use of the lower bunk bed as a couch during the day, and then pull out the top futon to make an ideal sleeping space at night. This type of bunk is great when you have a room and your kids are old enough to handle the extra sleeping surface.
If you don't have enough space for the traditional bunk you can consider options such as a corner loft or bunk. These beds are positioned in the corner of the room. This allows room for other furniture such as shelves or dressers. Some bunk beds have an attached desk, so your kids can do their homework while still in bed. This will help them focus and develop good habits for studying.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds can be the ideal solution for kids who want to sleep in separate rooms but do not have the space for two separate rooms. Most of our bunk beds come with a ladder that makes it simple for children to climb up the top of the bed. This is much safer than climbing over the sides of the bed, which could be risky. Children should only climb on the top bunk when they are able to safely climb it. This is usually at least six years of age.
Many parents are tempted by the straight ladders on bunk beds, but we suggest angled ladders to increase safety and convenience. These ladders are easier to grasp and provide a more comfortable experience. To climb up, kids simply set their feet on each rung one at a and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Look for a ladder with anti-slip grooves and handhole cutouts to allow children to hold onto the ladder while they climb.
If you're looking for a permanent solution, we offer several different types of stairs that can be permanently fixed to the frame of the bunk bed. They have a railing that encircles the staircase to provide additional security and also an extra wide tread to avoid falls and slips. You can pick an option with built-in drawers for an attractive appearance. This is a great choice to keep your child's room clean and organized.
Another option to save space is to choose an loft bed that doesn't connect to the bottom bunk by a ladder at all leaving plenty of room underneath for children to play and sleep.
