Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are a great way to maximize space while reducing the cost of separate rooms. Look for models with solid foundations and mattress supports that prevent gaps or spaces where children could be trapped or entangled.
The method by which the bed is accessed is also important. Bunk beds are usually accessible via ladders or stairs and angled ladders use 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 children are a great way to free up space in a small space or attic. They also provide convenience and elegance. The majority of bunk beds are twin over full or queen over twin configurations, meaning that your children can share a bed, while having their own space. A bunk bed for three is a great option, especially in the event that you plan to use the lower bunk for a playroom or office during the day.
The majority of bunks have an attached ladder to the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. To ensure safety, the height of the ladder should be no higher than 5-6 feet from the ceiling. This will prevent bumping heads and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk doesn't sleep too high.
