The first step is to ensure that the bunk bed or loft bunk single bed bed is placed correctly in the room. It should not be against the wall as this can cause children to become trapped between the bunk's wall and the top. Instead, leave a space of at least 3.5 inches between the bottom edge of the guard rail and the top of the mattress foundation.

When placing the bunk be sure to keep it away from blinds, curtains and windows that might block a child’s view or cause them to fall off. The bunk bed should not be placed close to anything that hangs from the rails such as toys or cords.

Also having a night lighting placed on the top bunk will aid kids in finding their way back down in the dark.

Another crucial safety measure is to install a loft safety net, that can be attached to the corners of the top bunk and keeps children from falling off. They are available in a wide assortment of sizes and colors to match any decor in the bedroom, and they are easy to install.
