Ladders

A bunk bed is an excellent option to make space in a child's bedroom without sacrificing security features.

The ladder should be fixed to the side of the frame of the bunk. It should not extend beyond 5 inches over the top of the end panels or guardrails. This will stop a child from being trapped between the ladder and the guardrail.

The number of rungs is an additional aspect to take into consideration when choosing a bunk ladder. Ideally the ladder should have seven or more rungs and should be evenly spaced apart.
