Buying Bunk Beds Kids

Bunk beds for kids are a great way to let siblings share a space without compromising personal space. They can also be used as an excellent option for hosting sleepovers. Based on the model you choose, these beds might have stairs or ladders that access the top bunk, and they can be constructed out of a variety including wood and metal.

Size

Compare the dimensions of your room with the dimensions of a bunk bed before you purchase it. You'll want to ensure there's plenty of space for your children to climb up and down the ladder (or stairs if your bunk includes them) and to maneuver around the loft without crashing into walls or furniture. You should also take into consideration the dimensions of the bunk bed as well as headroom in relation with your child's sitting and standing height. It may be necessary to purchase a shorter bunk to accommodate younger children, while older children might prefer a higher-upset.

Bunk beds for children are available in two different configurations - twin-overtwin or full-overfull. Both are excellent options for accommodating multiple kids in a single room. Some bunks also include a trundle bed to accommodate more guests at sleepovers. If your kids are still young, you should look for an extremely low bunk, with a bottom bunk that is less than 50 inches off the ground. This will stop children from falling out of bed, which could be a danger to safety.

Another aspect to consider is the amount of clearance between the top bunk and the guardrails. The CPSC recommends that the height of the top bunk mattress to not be higher than 5 inches over the guardrail. This will prevent your children from falling out of bed in the middle night and crashing into the guardrails. This could lead to entrapment, or even a fall.

Safety

Bunk bed injuries can occur to children of any age, but they are most frequent in children younger than six. It is important to follow the safety and assembly guidelines, use the right mattress size, and place the bunk beds so that they do not interfere with windows, heaters, or hanging lights. It's also an excellent idea to regularly inspect the bunk bed for any signs of wear and tear and make repairs as needed.

The height of the top bunk should be kept to a maximum of four feet, and there should be guardrails on both sides of the bed. The space between the guardrails should be no wider than 3 1/2 inches to avoid suffocation and ensure that your child doesn't roll under the guardrail while sleeping. The bottom mattress should be secured with wires or slats extending directly beneath the bunk. They should also be secured on both sides. This will stop your child from falling through gaps.

Ladders and stairs should be securely attached to the bunk beds and provide a safe way to climb to the top level. Make sure the ladder is not near any dangers and that your children are aware that they should use it only to climb into bed, not as an activity area. Avoid rough play on the bunks because it could affect their stability.

There is no specific age at which children are too old for bunk beds, however many experts recommend that children should not sleep in the top bunk until they are at minimum six years old, and able to stand still when sleeping. If you are unsure about your child's capacity to climb on the top bunk, think about a full-size or twin bunk instead.
