Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space

Bunk beds for kids are a great way to save money and maximize space. Find beds with solid foundations and mattress supports to avoid gaps or spaces where children can become trapped or entangled.

Another consideration is how the bed is accessed: bunks usually feature staircases 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 help you reduce floor space without giving up any comfort or style. Most bunk beds come in twin over full or queen over twin configurations, so your children can share a bed, while having their own space. A bunk bed for three is also an excellent option, particularly if you plan to use the lower bunk as an office or playroom during the daytime.

The majority of bunks have a ladder built into the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. The ladder's height should not exceed 5-6 feet above the ceiling for safety reasons. This is to prevent bumped heads while ensuring the younger kid sleeping on the top bunk doesn't get too high.

If you're looking to keep your children's bedroom furniture in style think about a wooden bunk bed that has stairs. This will not only add a fashionable touch to your child's bedroom and provide plenty of storage space for all the books, toys and knickknacks they may need.

This allows your kids to make use of the lower bed as an extra sofa during the day, and pull out the top futon in the evening for the perfect place to sleep. This type of bunk is great if you have the room and your kids are old enough to handle the extra sleeping space.

If you don't have the space to fit a traditional bunk bed look into a corner bunk or loft. These beds are placed in the corner of the room.

This will help them stay focused during the study period and helps them develop good habits.

Easy Climbing Ladder

A majority of our beds feature a ladder that makes it easier for kids to reach the top bunk. This is safer than climbing the sides of the bunk bed, which could be dangerous. Kids should only attempt to climb up onto the top bunk when they are mature enough to climb safely, which typically happens when they reach six years old.

These ladders are more comfortable to hold and provide a more comfortable experience. To climb up, kids simply set their feet on each rung one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Think about a ladder that comes with anti-slip grooves as well as handhole cutouts to make it easier for children to hold onto the ladder while they climb.

If you're looking for a more permanent solution, we provide various styles of stairs that can be permanently attached to the frame of the bunk bed.
