Bunk Beds Add Style and Character to Kids' Rooms

Bunk beds add style and character to kids' rooms. They are available in a broad range of designs and configurations, ranging from classic twin over full to futon to L-shaped.

Size

There are a variety of sizes of bunk beds that suit the needs of every family. The standard bunk bed is comprised of two twin mattresses that are stacked on top of one another vertically. Other mattress sizes like queen full, twin, or XL, can be utilized. The height of the top bed can be adjusted to increase or decrease the space between the ceiling and sleepers.

Some manufacturers recommend that there be at least 6-8 inches of clearance between bottom of mattress and the top of the slats. This will ensure that the top sleepers have enough space to move around and not fall on their heads against the ceiling when climbing in or out of bed. The mattress's bottom is often also fitted with a guard rail to prevent a fall occurring while asleep.

A few simple rules can aid parents in ensuring that their children's bunk beds are secure. For instance ladders should be placed on the outside of the bunk and not inside of it.

The beds should not be placed in close proximity to windows or behind furniture that could fall onto children as they sleep.
