Double Bunk Beds Top and Bottom Bunk beds can add storage, design and function to a kids' room. Many of these sets also convert into separate beds, allowing them to expand with the kids and remain a practical sleeping option. Be aware that bunk beds need a high ceiling. It is important to ensure there's enough headspace for sleepers to get in and out of bed in a safe manner. Size Double bunk beds are available in a variety of sizes. It is essential to take measurements of the space in your room prior to purchasing. Also, consider the height of your ceilings as this will affect the safety and comfort. If your ceilings are very high, you may want to consider an lofted bed that can be disassembled into two twin beds. This will let you free up space in your bedroom and give each child their own bedroom that is theirs to use for sleepovers and parties. Some lofted bed designs have built-in drawers that can be used for storage which is particularly useful if you have limited floor space to work with. The type of ladder or staircase that is used to construct the bunk bed is an additional important aspect to think about. A few bunk bed designs use a straight staircase and others have an angled or a staircase with handrails. Both options are easy to climb and safe for children, however which style you choose depends on the space you have in your bedroom. Straight ladders are more space-efficient, but stairs offer additional safety features like handrails and storage built into them. The size of the mattress on the top bunk needs to also be considered. It is important that the mattress on the top bunk isn't too thick. This can cause the sleeping person to fall and become injured. The majority of bunk bed manufacturers recommend that you choose a twin-size or full-size mattress for the top bunk, and twin XL or twin-sized mattresses for the bottom bunk. When you are choosing a bunkbed, you should also be aware of the age of your children. Kids under six years old should not be sleeping on the top bunk, as they can easily slip off and harm themselves. You can help keep your kids safe by establishing strict rules and ensuring they adhere to them. It is also important to teach children how to use the ladder safely and not hang anything from the guardrails of the top bunk. This includes scarves and belts. They can be a strangulation hazard for kids so it is important to make it clear that the top bunk is not a playground. Install a clip-light right next to the staircase, which will aid your children in finding their way down the stairs in the dark. Style There are many style options when it comes to bunk beds. Some bunk beds have a more traditional design while others have a more relaxed rustic feel. Others offer furniture with a sleek, simple style that is ideal in the modern bedroom. No matter what style you choose be sure to keep safety always a top priority. Position the bunk beds so that your children don't be pushed against each other while getting into and out of bed. Check that the bunk beds are far enough from lights, ceiling fans as well as heaters, blind cords (which can strangle your child) and windows. When it comes to style, bunk beds are available in a variety of colors and finishes. Some bunk beds have beautiful wood grain, while others are painted with a variety of colors, from neutral stone to vibrant blue. The wood finish will also affect the overall appearance of the bed, so it's important to think about your kids' room color scheme when choosing a bunk bed. If you'd like your child's' bunk bed to grow with them, opt for a model that can separate into two free-standing twin beds when they're ready to move into teens. This design by Harper & Bright comes in a variety of stunning painted finishes as well as rich walnut. Many parents choose to go for a double bunk with stairs, as this allows their children to easily climb into and out of the top mattress without having to worry about falling off the ladder. However, if you have kids who aren't yet ready climb the stairs there are many alternatives to choose from. For example, this twin over queen bunk bed from Harper & Bright can accommodate three mattresses and comes with a pull-out trundle with a convenient trundle design that can accommodate a single mattress within the space of one rail. Whatever style you pick, make sure your children understand that the top bunk is intended for sleeping only. This rule should be reinforced often, especially when guests come in and are tempted to use the top bunk. Also, ensure that double over double bunk beds reinforce the safety rules when your children are invited to sleepover. Safety While bunk beds may be fun and exciting, there are some safety issues that need to be considered. It is important to follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of your bunk bed, and to regularly check for missing or loose parts. Also, you should ensure that the frame of your bunk bed is sturdy and secure, especially when using the uppermost sleeping area. Children shouldn't be permitted to play on the top bunk and they must be taught that only one person is allowed to sleep there at any one time. This may seem like a difficult rule to apply, but it's for their safety. Another crucial safety measure is to make sure that the mattress on the top bunk is fitted properly. The mattress on top must not be deeper than 15cm and should be snugly seated within the guard rails of the bunk bed. A mattress that is more deep could cause the side guards of the bunk bed to deflect from the wall. This could lead to an unintentional fall from the bed. Similarly, the mattress on the bottom of the bunk should be supported by wires or slats that run directly underneath and are secured securely at both ends. If a mattress was only held up by the bed frame or slats, it may fall to the bottom bunk, causing injuries to the child. It is also essential to select a ladder that allows your child to safely climb up to the top bunk. There are many manufacturers that offer an angled ladder that is more stable than the traditional vertical ones. They are ideal for smaller children. It is also worth installing a nightlight to help your child locate the ladder at night. The most frequent accidents that happen to bunk beds are falls, and more than half of these occur in children younger than six. Children who are too young to be sleeping on the top bunk can be injured by falling off during a nap, or while playing. The majority of falls are preventable by taking simple safety precautions. It is also recommended to put a full-length fitted sheet on the top bunk and to put guardrails on both sides of the upper bunk. Mattress Bunk beds can be ideal for roommates and families with limited storage or living space. They allow two, even three people to sleep comfortably in a single bedroom by stacking a bed on the top of another. These fun, space-efficient frames can be used to accommodate twin, full, or queen mattresses and can be combined with storage options like drawers and trundles, which can maximize the available sleeping space. The mattress's size and thickness can have a significant impact on how a bunk bed can work in your space, so it's crucial to take accurate measurements before making a purchase. The thicker the mattress of your bunk bed, the more space you will have between the sleeping person's head and the ceiling. It is also essential to select a mattress that is the right height for the top bunk so you can comfortably use the rails and get in and out of bed easily. It's a great idea to choose a thicker mattress on the top bunk and an elongated trundle bed that can be tucked into the lower frame. This will give you more headroom between your lower and upper beds. This will reduce the risk of hitting your head while reading a book, or getting ready for bed. It also makes it easier to switch between bedding and mattresses. There are many different types of mattresses to pick from for your bunk beds, including innersprings, hybrids, latex and memory foam. A memory foam mattress is ideal for the top bunk due to the fact that it is designed to conform to the body, and eliminate pressure points. It is also lighter than other types bunk bed mattresses. This helps lessen the chance of overheating during warm nights. If you're looking for a long-lasting and cost-effective alternative, a coil mattress may be the best choice. These mattresses are made from metal springs, which create solid foundations for a bunk. They are generally less expensive than other types. These mattresses are great for teens and older children who require more support when sitting in bed to study or playing games.
