Safety

Safety is a major factor when buying a bunk bed. Bunk beds are dangerous in the event that they are not constructed properly or if children do not adhere to the rules. It is important to determine the area you plan to place the bunk bed, and compare the dimensions of the frame with the measurements of the mattress. This will help ensure that your mattress is perfectly sized and that there is enough room for your child to get in and out of bed without issues.

A key safety feature to look for is guard rails on both the top and bottom bunks. These should be a solid wood and securely fastened to the frame of the bunk. Any gaps, openings, or holes in the frame of the bunk bed should be small enough that children's legs, heads or torsos don't get trapped in the gaps. It's also an excellent idea to make sure that any ladders or stairs used to climb up and down the bunk bed are part of the frame itself or that they're securely secured to it, to avoid them coming loose and creating a tripping hazard.

Another important safety rule is to not let children under the age of six to sleep on the top bunk. The majority of bunk bed-related injuries happen to children under six years old, and more that half of these injuries are caused by falls. In addition to that it's an excellent idea to establish specific rules regarding the use of the bunk bed and make it clear that the top bunk isn't for playing, jumping or anything else.

You can buy clip-on shelves that can be easily attached to the sides of the bed and provide your child a place to keep their essentials for the night so that they don't have to get up from the bed to search for them in the dark.

Many bunk bed owners appreciate the possibility of adding under-bed storage drawers and trundles. These add-ons can be placed under the bunk bed to store clothes or blankets. These accessories can also be used to create additional space for guests to visit.

Trundles can also be found for bunk beds as pull-out mattresses. These mattresses are accessible via one step and are located beneath the bunk bed's bottom. This can provide a comfortable spot for one additional sleeper when guests are visiting and also eliminates the need to pull out an air mattress.

Anyone who is considering purchasing bunk beds should take into consideration the safety features. Check for side rails in the upper and lower bunks to prevent children from falling off the top bunk. It's important to also consider how thick a mattress can be comfortably fitted on the upper bunk. A mattress that is too thick could cause a child slide off the railings and injure themselves.

Some have a shorter ladder that is attached to the front of the upper guard rails. This is perfect for children because it makes climbing to the top bunk more comfortable and safer.
