Bunk Beds Add Style and Character to Kids' Rooms

Bunk beds add character and style to children's rooms. They come in a variety of styles and configurations, from the classic twin full and futon, to the L-shaped.

Most bunks have ladders, that are much easier to climb than stairs and do not take up the floor space. Some bunks have a fixed staircase while others mount an incline on either the left or right sides of the long bunk.

Size

There are several sizes of bunk beds to accommodate the requirements of families. The standard bunk bed is comprised of two twin mattresses placed on top of one another vertically. However, other sizes of mattresses like queen, full or twin XL could also be used. Additionally the height of the top mattress can be adjusted to increase or decrease the distance between the mattress and the ceiling.

Some manufacturers recommend that there should be at minimum 6-8 inches of space between bottom of mattress and the top of the slats. This ensures that top sleepers have enough room to move around and avoid hitting their heads against the ceiling as they climb into or out of the mattress. The bottom of the mattress is also often fitted with a guard rail to prevent a fall from happening while asleep.

Triple bunks are available in a variety of different designs and configurations. The configuration is typically comprised of two full beds stacked horizontally, and Double Bed bunks a twin bed at the bottom. This type of bunk beds is ideal for siblings that share rooms or for summer camps and college dormitories where students are required to live in a shared space.

Safety

Bunk beds are a popular choice for rooms for children. They can be hazardous, however, if they are not properly inspected and constructed. Each year, about 36,000 injuries resulting from bunk beds require emergency room treatment. Fortunately, most of these injuries are minor. Children younger than 5 are at most risk of injury because they don't have a full-blown sense of space. They are more likely to use their beds for play and jump off the top bunk. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises parents to not let children younger than six years old sleep on the top bunk.

Following a few simple guidelines can aid parents in ensuring that their children's bunk beds are safe. A ladder shouldn't be put within the bunk bed instead, it should be placed on the outside. Additionally, the rails must be at least five inches higher than the mattress and the opening for climbing in and out of bed should not be larger than fifteen inches. The beds should not be placed in close proximity to windows or behind furniture that could fall onto children while they sleep.

When building a bunk bed parents should adhere to the instructions of the manufacturer to the letter. Screws should not be tightened so much that they crack the wood. The bed should not squeak or move. It is also a good idea to get the bunk beds checked by a professional after they are put together, and have an expert test them before giving your children the ability to use them.

Bunk beds can be a great way to save space in a child's bedroom and can add style. However, it is essential that parents establish a set of rules for their children and supervise them with care to avoid injury.

Children should also be taught that playing rough with one another is not appropriate on furniture or beds.
