Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are an excellent way to maximize space while reducing the cost of separate rooms. Choose beds that have sturdy foundations and mattress supports that stop gaps or areas where children could be trapped or entangled.
The way 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 perfect solution to maximize a small space. Bunk beds for kids are a great way to free up space in a small space or attic. They also provide the comfort and style. Most bunk beds offer twin over full or twin over queen configurations so your kids can sleep side by side while still having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is also an excellent option, particularly if the bottom bunk is used as an office or playroom during the daytime.
The majority of bunks have a ladder built into the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. The ladder's elevation should not exceed 5-6 feet above the ceiling due to safety concerns. This will stop heads from bumping and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk does not sleep too high.
If you want to keep your children's bedroom furniture in style, consider choosing an oak bunk bed with stairs. This will not only add an elegant touch to your kids' room but it also provides ample storage space for every book, toy or items they'll require to put away.
Some bunks offer the possibility of expanding from a standard bed into a futon. This lets your children make use of the lower bunk bed as a couch during the daytime, and then pull out the top futon to create an ideal sleeping space at night. This kind of bunk bed is ideal for those who have plenty of space and your kids are old enough to manage the extra sleeping space.
If you don't have enough space for a traditional bunk, look into options like a corner loft or bunk. These beds are placed in the corner of the room. This allows room for other furniture, like cabinets or shelves. Some bunks also have beds with a desk connected, which makes it easy for your little kids to work while lying in bed. This helps them stay focused during the study period and encourages good habits.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are ideal for kids who want to sleep in a separate room but don't have enough room for two separate bedrooms. A majority of our beds feature an incline to make it easier for kids to reach the top bunk. This is safer than climbing over the sides of the bed, which could be dangerous. Children should only climb on the top bunk when they can safely do so. This is usually at least six years of age.
While many parents are tempted to buy bunk beds that have straight ladders, we recommend selecting beds with angled ladders for added security and ease of use. These ladders provide a more comfortable climbing experience, and they're also more comfortable to hold. To climb up, kids simply put their feet on each rung one at a and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Think about a ladder that comes with handhole cutouts and anti-slip grooves to make it easier for children to hold onto the ladder while they climb.
If you're looking for a more permanent solution, we offer many different styles 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 they have an extra wide tread to avoid slips and falls. To give a more attractive look, consider an stairwell with built-in storage drawers. They are a great way to keep your children's rooms organized and tidy.
A loft bed without an attached ladder to the bunk below is another way to save space. This allows more space for kids to play in and sleep underneath.
