Ladders

A bunk bed is a fantastic way to save space in a child's room without losing security features. It is crucial to remember that children should not sleep on the top bunk until they reach six years old. The ladder used for climbing on and off of the top bunk could cause injuries if not used or installed correctly. To ensure that your child can safely get on and off the bunk, there are a few things to consider when choosing the ladder.

The first thing to take into consideration when selecting the right ladder is its height. The ideal ladder height is between 58- 60 inches, but this can vary depending upon the size of the bunk. The ladder should be secured to the side of the frame for the bunk and should not extend beyond 5 inches over the top guardrails or end panels. This will avoid a child being caught between the ladder and the guardrail.

Another factor to consider when choosing a bunk ladder is the number of rungs it comes with. The ladder should have at minimum seven rungs and they should be evenly spaced. The length of the ladder should be in line with your child's height and age so that they will be capable of using it easily. You should also select the ladder that has cushioned treads. They will provide a smooth surface that can reduce the chance of slippage and falling off of the bunk.

Many bunk beds come with an built-in staircase that is a great option for those who don't wish to purchase separate ladders. Some of these ladders are designed so that they fit in a flush position with the bottom of the bunk and don't interfere with the opening or closing of the lower trundle. Others are slanted and offer a safe, comfortable climbing surface that is suitable for both adults and children.

You can make your bed ladder even more comfortable by adding antislip tape. This is a quick and cheap solution that can help to improve your child's grip on the ladder while climbing. To apply the tape, you will need to take off the liner in black from the ladder and then cut it to the right size.

Headboards

While the maximum capacity of the top bunk is typically listed as being at or above a standard twin mattress most manufacturers recommend that the top bunk be used only with a mattress that is not thicker than 4 to 6 inches. If the mattress is too thick the sleeper could end up being higher than the guardrails. This could be a risk.

If your top bunk is straight, you can fix it to the bed with ladder hooks that are attached to the frame. Hooks can be put to either the right or left side of the ladder, except if they are blocked by a headboard. You can also pick angle ladders if you are looking for a more permanent solution.
