Safety Bunk beds are popular due to the fact that they can be used to save space, however they also pose a security risk to children who are not yet old enough to be able to sleep on the top bunk. Kids can fall off the back of the lower mattress or fall into the gap between the ladder and the bottom mattress. To make sure your kids are sleeping in a safe manner, look for bunk beds that meet the safety standards of the nation and is accredited by an independent testing lab. Make sure the bed is fitted with guard rails throughout, with gaps of no more than 3.5 inches to avoid strangulation. Make sure that the mattress foundation is not too deep and solid. A mattress that is too deep could cause the guardrails to fall. Avoid bunk beds with ladders that extend beyond the frame. These ladders are more prone to getting tangled up in curtains or other objects. Children should not climb or play on the side or bunk bed. Also, they should not use toys or other items on or near the ladder. The best spot for a bunk bed is in the corner of the room, so that both beds are hugged by walls on both sides. It is essential to keep bunkbeds away from ceiling lighting and fans, as they can be a danger to those who bump their heads on them when seated upright in bed. Stairs or ladders must be secured to the bunk bed and come with anti-entrapment devices to prevent accidents when climbing up and down. It's a good idea for children to climb up and down on a sturdy surface, like carpet or a stairs-runner. It is important to teach children the rules to follow when bunk beds, like not jumping on or playing on them and only using them for sleeping. Also, teach that they should use the ladder only to go up and down, not as an exercise stool or a climbing frame. Children should be taught not to hang objects such as belts or scarves on bunk beds. Jump ropes and decorations can also cause strangulation. Convenience If you have two kids sharing a room the bunk bed is an excellent option to reduce space and make it easier for them to get to sleep at night. But, it's essential to take a look at the security features of each bunk bed prior to making a purchase. Some bunk beds are equipped with stairs, while others include ladders. Both are useful, but it's crucial to ensure that they are made of solid, sturdy wood and will not come loose or cause a risk when used. Staircases are generally more secure than ladders as they are built directly into the frame of the bed. Ladders aren't safe for children as they are easy to climb and can cause falls if not properly secured. Another excellent bunk bed convenience feature is a trundle, which lets you add an extra sleeping area for guests. This is a great solution for kids who like to host sleepovers with their friends, and can also help reduce the requirement for an additional dresser or chest of drawers in a tiny bedroom.

Some bunk beds include a desk so your children can complete their homework or study in the privacy of their bedroom. This is a great benefit for children who are at school and have to continue their studies. It will help them develop solid work habits that they can carry forward into the future.
