Other sizes of mattresses, such as queen, full, or twin XL, may be utilized. The height of the top bed can also be adjusted in order to increase or decrease the distance between the ceiling and the sleeping beds.

Some manufacturers recommend that there is at least 6-8 inches of clearance between the mattress's bottom and top of slats.

Fortunately, most of these injuries are minor. The risk of injury is greatest for children who are younger, as they lack a full sense of space. They are also more likely to jump on or off the upper bunk, and also to use their beds for play. This is one reason that the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends parents do not let children under six years old to sleep on the top bunk.

Parents can make sure their children's bunk beds are safe by following a few simple rules. A ladder should not be placed within the bunk bed instead, it should be placed on the outside. The rails must be at least 5 inches above the mattress, and the opening for climbing in and out of the bed shouldn't exceed 15 inches. The beds should not be placed in close proximity to windows or behind furniture that could fall on children while they sleep.

Parents must strictly follow the instructions of the manufacturer when building a bunk bed. Screws should not be tightened so much that they crack the wood. Additionally, the bed should not creak or rock.
