Straight ladders take up less space, while stairs can provide more safety features, such as handrails and built-in storage.

The size of the mattress on the top bunk needs to be taken into consideration.

The majority of bunk bed manufacturers recommend that you use a twin-size or full-size mattress on the top bunk and twin XL or twin-sized mattresses for the bottom bunk.

It is also important to consider the age of your children when choosing a bunk bed. Children younger than six years old shouldn't be sleeping on the top bunk as they can easily fall off and injure themselves. Set firm guidelines for your children and make sure they follow them.

Safety

While bunk beds are fun and exciting, they have safety issues to be considered. It is essential to follow the guidelines set forth by the manufacturer of your bunk bed, and to frequently check for any missing or loose parts. It is crucial to ensure that the frame of your bunk bed is sturdy and secure, particularly when sleeping in the uppermost space. Children shouldn't be allowed to play on the top bunk and they should be taught that only one person is allowed to sleep there at a time.

Another crucial safety measure is to ensure that the mattress on the top bunk is fitted properly. The mattress on top should be no deeper than 15cm. It should fit snugly within the guard rails of the bunk bed. A deeper mattress could cause the side guards of the bunk bed to deflect from the wall. This could result in an unintentional fall from bed. The bottom bunk mattress should be supported by wires or slats that are directly underneath and are secured securely at both ends. If the mattress was held up by the bed frame, or slats, it could fall to the bottom bunk, causing injury to the child.

The mattress's size and thickness can have a significant impact on how well a bunk bed will work in your space, which is why it's important to take accurate measurements prior to purchasing.
