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 eliminate gaps or spaces that children might be trapped or entangled.
The way the bed is accessible is also a crucial aspect. Bunk beds are usually accessed via stairs or ladders and angled ladders take less space than standard vertical ladders.
Space-Saving Design
Bunk beds can be the ideal option to maximize space in a small room. Bunk beds for kids are a great way to save space in a small room or attic. They also offer the comfort and style. Most bunk beds come in twin over full or queen over twin designs, which means your children can share a bed, while having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent choice, particularly when the bunk on the bottom will be used as an office or playroom during the day.
The majority of bunk beds have an entryway or ladder built into the frame. The ladder's height shouldn't exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling to ensure safety. This will prevent bumping heads and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk does not sleep too high.
If you're looking to keep your kids' bedroom furniture stylish think about an oak bunk bed with stairs. This will not only add a chic accent to your child's bedroom and provide plenty of storage space for all the toys, books and other knickknacks that they might need.
Some bunks also offer the possibility of expanding from a standard bed to an actual futon. This lets your kids make use of the lower bed as an extra sofa during the day, and pull out the top futon in the evening for the perfect place to sleep. This type of bunk is great when you have a room and your kids are old enough to manage the extra sleeping surface.
If you don't have enough space for a traditional bunk bed think about a corner bunk or loft. These beds are positioned in the corner of the room. This allows room for other furniture, like dressers or shelves. Some bunk beds come with an attached desk, which means that your children can complete their homework while in their bed. This helps them stay focused during their study time and helps them develop good habits.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds can be an ideal solution for children who prefer to sleep in separate rooms, but do not have the space for two separate rooms. Many of our bunk beds have a ladder that makes it simple for children to climb to the top of the bed. This is safer than climbing the sides of the bed, which can be dangerous. Children should only climb on top bunks only if they are old enough to be able to do it safely, which typically happens when they are at least six years old.
While many parents are tempted to
buy bunk Bed bunk beds with straight ladders, we recommend choosing beds that have angled ladders for more safety and convenience. These ladders are easier to grip and offer a smoother experience. To climb up, kids simply set their feet on each step one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. For even more safety, consider choosing a ladder with grooved anti-slip steps and hand holes that allow kids to hold on to as they climb.
If you are looking for an option that is permanent There are a variety of designs of stairways that could be permanently mounted to the frame of bunk beds. The stairs have an edging that is placed around the staircase for additional safety and more treads to prevent falls and slips. To give a more attractive look, you can choose an stairwell with built-in storage drawers, which are ideal for keeping your children's rooms tidy and neat.
A loft bed that doesn't have a ladder connecting it to the bottom bunk is another method of reducing space. This gives more space for kids to play and sleep under. The loft and bunk beds often resemble a fun treehouse, which makes them a great option for kids who enjoy playing outside. Some of our loft and bunk beds come with a slide to add a touch of fun.
Extra Storage
Many loft and bunk beds offer additional storage options to help children keep their rooms clean. These beds use vertical space to store clothing, books, toys and much more without taking up floor space. These beds also work well in traditional and contemporary bedroom designs.
