Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space

Bunk beds for kids are a great way to save money while maximizing space. Look for models that have solid foundations and mattress supports to stop gaps or spaces in which children may become stuck or trapped.

The way the bed is accessed is also important. Bunk beds are typically accessible via ladders or stairs and angled ladders use 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, bunk beds for kids can help you save floor space, without sacrificing any comfort or style. The majority of bunk beds are twin over full or queen over twin designs, which means your kids can share a bed while still having their own space. A bunk bed for three is also an ideal option, especially if you plan to use the lower bunk beds for kids with stairs for a playroom or office during the daytime.

Most bunks come with ladders built into the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. The ladder's height shouldn't exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling to ensure safety. This is to prevent bumped heads while ensuring the younger child who is sleeping on the top bunk doesn't get too high.

Think about a wooden bunkbed that has stairs if you want your children's bedroom furniture to look elegant. This will not only add an elegant touch to your kids' room but it also provides ample storage for every book, toy or items they'll require to put away.

Some bunks can be converted to a futon. This allows your children to utilize the lower bunk bed as a couch during the daytime, and then pull out the top futon to make a comfortable sleeping area at night. This type of bunk is great for rooms with a lot of space and your kids are old enough to handle the extra sleeping surface.

If you don't have the space for a traditional bunk consider alternatives such as a corner loft or bunk. These beds are placed in the corner of the room. This allows room for other furniture like dressers or shelves. Some bunk beds come with an attached desk, so your kids can do their homework while still in their bed. This can help them focus and develop good habits for studying.

Easy Climbing Ladder

Bunk beds can be an ideal solution for children who want to sleep in separate rooms but do not have the space for two separate rooms. A lot of our bunk beds are equipped 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 can be dangerous. Kids should only attempt to climb onto the top bunk when they are old enough to do so safely, which is usually when they are at least six years old.

Many parents are tempted by the straight ladders on bunk beds, but we suggest angle ladders to improve security and ease of use. These ladders are more comfortable to hold and provide a more comfortable experience. To climb, kids simply put their feet on each rung one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Consider a ladder that has anti-slip grooves and handhole cutouts to help children to grip the ladder as they climb.

If you're seeking a permanent solution there are a myriad of styles of stairways that can be permanently mounted to the frame of a bunk bed. The stairs are equipped with a railing around the staircase to ensure safety. They also feature a wider tread to prevent slipping and falling. You can choose an option with built-in drawers for a more decorative appearance. This is a great option to keep your child's space neat and tidy.

A loft bed that doesn't have an attached ladder to the bottom bunk is another way to save space. This leaves more room for kids to play in and sleep on. These loft and bunk beds typically resemble a treehouse, which makes them an ideal choice for children who love spending time in the outdoors. Some of our bunk and loft beds come with an optional slide for an additional touch of excitement.
