kids bedding for bunk beds Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space

Kids bunk beds are ideal for maximising space while saving money on separate rooms. Look for models with solid foundations and mattress supports that stop gaps or spaces that children might be trapped or entangled.

Another consideration is how the bed can be accessible: bunks typically have stairs or ladders with angled ladders taking less space than standard vertical ones.

Space-saving Design

Bunk beds are the perfect way to maximize a small space. If you're looking to furnish an attic bedroom or even the small space 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 share a bed while still having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is also an excellent option, especially if the bottom bunk can be used as a playroom or office during the day.

Most bunks come with a ladder built into the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. For safety reasons it is recommended that the ladder's height should be no higher than 5 to 6 feet away from the ceiling. This will stop heads from bumping and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk doesn't rest too high.

Consider a wooden bunkbed with stairs if you want your children's bedroom furniture to be elegant. This not only provides an additional stylish element to your kids' room but it also provides ample storage for every book, toy and knick-knack they may require to store away.

Some bunks also have the ability to convert from a standard bed to a futon. This allows your kids to make use of the lower bed as a sofa during the day, and pull out the top futon at night to provide a comfortable place to sleep. This type of bunk bed is great for those who have plenty of space and your children are old enough to be able to handle the extra sleeping surface.

If you don't have the space to fit the traditional bunk bed, consider a corner loft or corner bunk. These beds are positioned in the corner of your kids rooms, which leave the remaining space for other kids' furniture such as shelves or dressers. Additionally, some bunks have beds with a desk that are attached, making it simple for your little ones to do homework while lying down in bed. This will help them stay focused during the study period and promotes good habits.

Easy Climbing Ladder

Bunk beds are an ideal solution for children who want to sleep in separate rooms but don't have enough space to have two separate rooms. Most of our bunk beds come with a ladder that makes it simple for children to climb to the top of the bed. This is more secure than climbing up the sides of the bunk bed, which could be dangerous. Kids should only climb the top bunk when they are able to safely climb it. This is usually at least six years of age.

Many parents are attracted by the straight ladders on bunk beds, but we recommend angled ladders to increase security and ease of use. They provide a smoother climbing experience, and they're also more comfortable to hold. To climb, kids place their feet on the rungs in a sequence and then move upwards until they reach top bunk. To ensure safety, choose a ladder that has grooved anti-slip steps and hand holes that allow kids to hold on to when they climb.

If you're looking for a more permanent solution, we have many different styles of stairs that can be fixed to the frame of the bunk bed. They have a railing that encircles the staircase for additional safety and also more treads to prevent slips and falls. For a more decorative look, you can choose an stairwell with built-in storage drawers, which are an excellent way to keep your children's rooms organized and tidy.

Another way to save space is by opting for a loft bed that doesn't connect to the bottom bunk using a ladder at all and leaves plenty of room underneath for children to play and to sleep. These bunk beds and lofts typically resemble a treehouse, making them a great option for kids who enjoy spending time outdoors. Some of our bunk beds and lofts also feature an optional slide for an extra touch of fun.
