Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Bunk beds for kids are a great option to save money and maximize space. Choose models with sturdy foundations, and mattress supports to avoid gaps or spaces in which children can become trapped or trapped.
The way the bed is accessible is also a crucial aspect. Bunk beds are typically accessed via stairs or ladders, and angled ladders take up less space than standard vertical ladders.
Space-saving Design
Bunk beds are an excellent way to maximize space in a small space. Bunk beds for kids are a great option to make space in a small room or attic. They also provide comfort and style. The majority of bunk beds come with twin over full or twin over queen configurations so your kids can sleep side-by-side while still enjoying their personal space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent option, particularly in the event that the lower bunk will be used as an office or playroom during the daytime.
The majority of bunk beds have an escalator or ladder built into the frame. For safety reasons the height of the ladder should be no higher than 5 to 6 feet from the ceiling. This is to avoid bumped heads while making sure that the child who is sleeping on the top bunk isn't too high up.
Think about a wooden bunkbed that has stairs for your kids' bedroom furniture to be stylish. Not only will this add an extra stylish touch to the room of your child but it also provides ample storage space for each book, toy or knick-knack they may require to store away.
Some bunks also offer the ability to convert from a standard bed into an actual futon. This allows your kids to use the lower bed as a sofa during the day, and pull out the top futon at night to provide a comfortable place to sleep. This type of bunk bed is great for those who have plenty of space and your children are old enough to handle the extra sleeping surface.
If you do not have the space to fit a traditional bunk bed look into a corner loft or corner bunk. These beds are placed in the corner of the room. This allows room for other furniture like dressers or shelves. Additionally, some bunks have beds that have desks that are attached, making it simple for your young ones to do homework while lying in bed. This will help them to stay focused and instil good habits during their study time.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are perfect for children who wish to sleep in a separate room but don't have enough space to create two separate bedrooms. Many of our bunk beds are equipped with a ladder that makes it simple for children to climb up the top of the bed. This is safer than climbing up the sides of the bunk bed, which could be dangerous. Children should only climb the top bunk when they can safely do so. This is usually at least six years of age.
While many parents are tempted to buy bunk beds with straight ladders, we would suggest choosing beds with angled ladders for added security and ease of use. These ladders are easier to grip and provide a more pleasant experience. To climb, kids put their feet on the rungs one at atime and then move upwards until they reach the top bunk. Look for a ladder with handhole cutouts and anti-slip grooves to allow children to grip the ladder while they climb.
If you're looking for a permanent solution there are a myriad of styles of stairways that can be fixed permanently to the frame of bunk beds. The stairs are equipped with an edging around the staircase to offer additional security. They also have a wider tread that stops people from sliding and falling. You can pick an item with built-in drawers to give it an attractive appearance. This is a great way to keep your child's room organized and tidy.
Another method to reduce space is by opting for loft beds that don't connect to the bottom bunk using an elevated ladder and leaves plenty of room underneath for children to play or to sleep. These bunk beds and lofts often resemble a fun treehouse, making them an ideal choice for kids who enjoy playing outdoors. Some of our loft and bunk beds come with a slide to add a touch of fun.
Extra Storage
Many loft and bunk beds provide additional storage options that can help children keep their rooms tidy and clean. These beds make use of vertical space to store clothing books, toys, books and more, without taking up valuable floor space. These beds can be used with both modern and traditional bedroom styles. Pottery Barn Kids has a numerous twin over full beds that can be adapted to your child's room and their needs.
The classic Maxtrix loft bed with drawers is a great option as a storage solution to your child's bunk beds. It has two large drawers that can be used to store shoes, clothes, bedtime necessities, and other items. The drawers have unidirectional casters which make it simple for children to open and close them. This is a great choice for children who share rooms, since it can help keep each other's possessions away from each other's reach.
This Maxtrix loft features a built-in desk and hutch that can be used to create an area for study. The solid wood desk for kids is easily removed from underneath the bed and folds up when not in use, preserving space in the room for play. It's a smart solution for kids who like to craft all day or use the computer for school assignments.
When it's time to go to bed The bottom bunk of this Maxtrix can be turned into a comfortable sofa. This is a great choice for children who want to invite friends to sleepovers or parents who want to save space in the guest room. This twin over futon is also great for children who are transitioning to regular beds from cribs.
Loft beds or bunk beds are great for kids who love to climb, and are full of energy. These beds are a great alternative for traditional bedroom furniture. They are available in various styles, finishes and configurations. There are also options which include a storage ladder or a trundle for guests who want to sleep over, making it easy to accommodate the changing needs of a family's requirements in a single space.
Fun Slide
The fun of bunk beds for children can be increased by the addition of a slide. The excitement of the children racing down the top bunk is a great way to encourage imagination and play which makes it easier to sleep at time of night.
Bunk beds that have slides are the perfect opportunity to mix play and sleep in the same space, perfect for shared rooms for kids and growing families. Kids can race up the ladder, and then take turns sliding down the slide and bring hours of fun to their room.

For rooms with limited space our bunk bed with slide options include the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower, which can be connected to either the back of the ladder or the front of the bunk bed frame. Based on the height of the frame, the slide protrudes approximately 190cm into the room and an exit opening of 70 cm is required.
