Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are ideal for maximising space and save money on separate rooms. Choose beds that have sturdy foundations and mattress supports that eliminate gaps or areas where children could get stuck or caught.
The way the bed is accessible is also crucial. Bunk beds are usually accessed via stairs or ladders and angled ladders use up less space than standard ladders that are vertical.
Space-Saving Design
Bunk beds can be an excellent way to maximize space in a small room. Bunk beds for kids are a great way to make space in a small space or attic. They also offer convenience and elegance. The majority of bunk beds come in twin over full or queen over twin configurations, so your kids can share a bed while still having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent option, especially if the bottom bunk will be used as an office or playroom during the daytime.
Most bunks come with a ladder built into the frame or a staircase that leads to the top bunk. The ladder's elevation should not exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling due to safety concerns. This will prevent bumping heads and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk does not sleep too high.
If you're looking to keep your kids' bedroom furniture in style look into a wooden bunk bed with stairs. Not only will this add an additional stylish element to your children's room, but it also offers ample storage space for each book, toy or items they'll require to put away.
Some bunks can be converted to a futon. This lets your children make use of the lower bed as a sofa during the day and pull out the top futon at night to provide an incredibly comfortable bed. This type of bunk is perfect for rooms with a lot of space and your kids are old enough to handle the additional sleeping surface.
If you do not have enough space for the traditional bunk bed, look into a corner bunk or loft. These beds are positioned in the corner of your child's room, leaving the room for other kids' furniture, such as shelves or dressers. Additionally, some bunks have beds with a desk connected, which makes it simple for your young kids to work while sitting up in their bed. This can help them remain focused and help them develop good habits for studying.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds can be the ideal solution for kids who prefer to sleep in separate rooms, but don't have enough space to have two separate rooms. Most of our beds come with a ladder that makes it easier for kids to reach the top bunk. This is safer than climbing the sides of the bunk bed, which could be dangerous. Children should only climb on the top bunk when they are able to safely do so. This usually happens at least six years of age.
Many parents are enticed to buy bunk beds with straight ladders, we recommend selecting beds with angled ladders for added safety and convenience. They provide a smoother climbing experience and are also easier to grip. To climb, children simply set their feet on each rung one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Look for a ladder with anti-slip grooves as well as handhole cutouts to make it easier for children to hold onto the ladder as they climb.
If you're looking for a permanent solution, we have several different types of stairs that can be permanently attached to the frame of the bunk bed. These stairs feature a railing that surrounds the staircase to provide additional security and also an extra wide tread to avoid accidents and falls. For a more stylish look, you can choose a set of stairs with built-in storage drawers that are a great way to keep your children's rooms tidy and neat.
A loft bed without a ladder that connects it to the bunk below is another option to reduce space. This gives more space for kids to play in and sleep underneath. These loft and bunk beds often resemble a fun treehouse, which makes them an excellent choice for children who love being outside. Some of our loft and bunk beds come with a slide to add a touch of fun.
Extra Storage
A variety of loft beds and bunk beds also have storage options to help kids keep their rooms neat and tidy. These beds can be used to store clothes, books toys, books, and more vertically, saving valuable floor space. They also work in traditional and contemporary bedroom designs. Pottery Barn Kids has a an extensive selection of twin over full beds that are perfect for your child's bedroom and requirements.
The classic Maxtrix loft bed with drawers can be used to provide additional storage space to your child's bunk beds. It uses two spacious drawers to store clothing, shoes, bedtime essentials, and other items. The drawers come with unidirectional casters that make it easy for children to open and close them. This is a great choice for kids who share a room. It allows them to keep the belongings of each other from each other.
This Maxtrix loft features a built-in desk and hutch to create an area for study. The solid wood desk can be removed from under the bed, and folded back in when not being used. This gives you more space in the bedroom to play. It's a great solution for children who love to create all day long or use their computer for school assignments.
The bed at the bottom of this Maxtrix bunk can be turned into a comfy sofa when it's not time to sleep. This is an excellent option for kids who like having sleepovers with friends, or for parents seeking to reduce the size of their guest room. This twin over futon is also great for younger children who are preparing to move to regular beds from cribs.
Children who love climbing and have lots of energy will enjoy the unique design and function of a bunk or loft bed. These beds offer a fun alternative to traditional bedroom furniture and they're available in many styles, finishes, and configurations. There are also options which include a storage ladder or a trundle bed for sleepover guests, making it easy to accommodate the changing needs of a family's requirements in a single space.
Fun Slide
The fun factor of bunk beds for children can be enhanced with the addition of a slide. Children love rushing down the slide from the top bunk, and the excitement stimulates active and imaginative play, making it easier to get them up and ready for sleeping at night.
Bunk beds that slide are a great choice for growing families and shared rooms. Kids can climb the ladder and then slide down the slide. This can bring hours of fun to their rooms.
Our unique loft and bunk bed models with slide are available in twin and full sizes so that they can fit comfortably in the majority of rooms. They can be separated at a later time to create two standard size beds. The bunk bed frame is available in a natural finish, however, it can be ordered with the option of a White or Chestnut finish.
Our bunk beds that have slides include the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. This can be connected either to the side of the ladder, or to the front, based on the room size. Based on the assembly height the slide extends about 190 cm into the room. An exit opening of about 70 cm is required.
Pick your kids' bunk beds and add a slide for the ultimate sleep-and-play combo! You can further personalize your child's bunk by adding optional bottom play curtains for a fun castle-like fort and drawers for trundle storage to provide extra sleeping space when you have guests staying overnight.
