Safety

Bunk beds are a wonderful addition to any child's room, but they can also be risky if they're not properly used. It's vital to follow the safety guidelines when using bunk beds and teach your children the proper method of using them. By doing this will eliminate any dangers that are associated with these kinds of beds, and your kids can continue sleeping in them comfortably.

One of the most common causes of bunk bed accidents is when a child slips off the top mattress or gets stuck. It is essential to ensure there aren't any gaps or other spots where your child could get stuck in. The best way to check this is to make sure that the edges of the bunk bed are smooth, and that there aren't protrusions that could entangle children or cause injury.

Guard rails are a crucial security feature. Idealy, they should be at least 5 inches higher than the bunk bed's lower level. This will prevent children's faces from getting stuck between the mattress's bottom and the guard rail. The guard rails must be identical in height on all sides, and never less than 3.5 inch apart.

It's also essential to check that the gap between the mattress's foundation and the wall on which the ladder is located is less than 5 inches. It should fit well and be tested to make sure that there aren't any neck-entrapment dangers. To ensure this, you'll need to test the openings at both ends of the lower bunk with wedge blocks. The block should be able to pass through the opening without difficulty and also be possible to test for neck entrapment passing a sphere that is rigid to 9 inches through the same openings.

Last but not least, make sure that your bunk beds don't block ceiling fans, blinds, curtains or heaters. All of these could present the risk of strangulation. This will reduce any fire or tripping hazards and help keep your children from becoming overheated while they sleep.

Design

Think about the overall design of a bunkbed before choosing one. This includes the overall style and how well it will fit in the room of your child. Bunk beds are available in a variety of sizes, such as twin over full, twin over twin and full over double. You can also purchase a futon style bunk bed that combines an upper bed with an lower couch or platform that can be used as a sleeping area. Some bunk beds may also feature stairs that lead to the top, instead of a ladder. Stairs are generally safer for younger children, but they may take more space than a ladder. If you decide to go for stairs, ensure that they are positioned with a suitable guard rail and a suitable gap between the steps to avoid accidents.

Some bunk beds can be split into single beds when your children grow out of them or need their own space in a separate room. This will save you money on a new bed, and also give your children more room in their bedroom for activities.
