Buying a Double Size Bunk Bed A bunk bed can add design and function to a bedroom. It's the perfect choice for siblings sharing a room or tweens looking to have friends stay over for a night. When shopping for a double-sized bunk bed, consider the room's ceiling height and whether you want the bottom of the bed to have a trundle for extra guests. Choose an incline or step that is wide enough for teenagers and children of smaller ages to climb. Size If you're considering buying a bunk bed for your home, there are many alternatives available. There are numerous options that include twin over twin or twin over full or even triple bunk beds. These bunk beds are designed to fit two or more people, meaning you can make the most of your bedroom space without sacrificing safety or comfort. multiple bunk beds are also easily disassembled to make two twin mattresses if needed. This allows you to repurpose your bunk bed in the future, if your children no longer need it or if you want to save money on additional foundations and headboards. It's important to note that the dimensions of your bed will determine which mattress is best for you. You can choose an oversized twin mattress for the top bunk, or a twin-sized mattress that is 5 inches larger. This is a great option for teens as it gives extra length to more taller sleepers. You can also opt for a futon style bunk bed, which features a pullout sofa at the bottom of the frame. This provides more sleeping space to adults or teenagers. The height of your bunk bed must be considered in order to avoid having to purchase a mattress that is too high, and risk crashing your head against the ceiling when you lay down. A best practice is to make sure there's about six to eight inches of clearance between the mattress and the guard rail on the top to allow sleepers to comfortably sit up in bed. You might also consider the dimensions of your ladder for bunk beds according to the dimensions of the room. You can purchase stairs or angled ladders for bunk beds. Staircase ladders take up more space but safer than straight ladders. Bunk bed ladders are available in a variety of sizes and heights. This is beneficial for families with children who are growing and require changing rooms. Some bunk beds can be divided to create a lofted beds that make room for furniture, a dresser or desk toys. This is a great choice for teens or older children who don't wish to share a space. Material Double bunk beds can be found in a variety of materials. Solid wood is the most durable and robust option, while cheaper metal is a good option for budget-conscious shoppers. Bunk beds are also available in engineered and particleboard wood. However, these kinds of materials don't last as long as solid wood and they could emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that could have adverse effects on children's respiratory, immune, or allergic systems. The height of the top bunk is an important factor to take into consideration when choosing a bunk bed. A bed that is too tall can cause people to fall from the top bunk or fall and hit their head against the guard rails. Typically the bunk bed should not be more than six feet from the floor.

Although memory foam mattresses are renowned for their comfort, they tend to be more expensive than innerspring or coil mattresses. Design If your children share in a room the bunk beds could provide more space for sleeping without taking up more floor area. Bunk beds can be found in many different designs and configurations. Many even have extra features such as tables that are built-in, stairs, and trundles. You can find pre-made beds in the majority of furniture stores. However you can construct your own bunk bed to suit the dimensions and style of any room. When selecting a bunk bed, it is important to take into consideration the space in your bedroom, as well as the ceiling's height. A larger space can accommodate a bigger mattress, whereas smaller rooms will require two mattresses to avoid crowding the space. You must also make sure that the ceiling does not touch your child's head while they are sleeping on the top bunk. A basic bunk bed could be made with two twin-size mattresses, while some variations feature full-size mattresses on the bottom and a twin on top. These bunks are great for siblings who share the same space or for older children who require more space to play and study. These bunks are ideal for bedrooms with small spaces as they free up floor space to accommodate other furniture such as dressers, desks, and toy boxes. Other types of bunk beds include loft beds, which can be used as an office or playroom and also double as a bed when guests are visiting. These beds are available in a variety of finishes, ranging from traditional to contemporary, and are often designed with sturdy wood construction. Some beds have shelves built into them for books or other items. Another kind of bunk bed is the L-shaped double bunk that offers more privacy for sleeping and can be set up with various styles to fit any bedroom. It is also safe to use since it includes a staircase with safety rails and a desk built in making it a great option for children who need to do homework or other things in the bed.

This bunk bed comes with more storage space and can be used by more guests than an ordinary bed. The spacious design is ideal for teenagers and can be tailored to match any decor or finish. Safety Although accidents to bunk beds can happen, most of them are due to how children use the beds, not a result of the design or construction. With some basic safety precautions bunk beds can be used safely by children of all different ages. Choose the location you wish to put your bunk bed and measure the different dimensions of the room. This will help you determine if the bed will fit in there and will provide enough space for sleeping and playing. Check the ceiling's height to avoid placing the bunk beds beneath ceiling fans or lights. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when assembling your bunk bed. This will ensure that all the components are properly fitted and your bunk bed is sturdy. Replace any worn or damaged components. Make sure that the ladders on the bunk beds are safe and are able to support the weight of your child and any guests who may be sleeping over. Another important safety tip is to teach your children the rules of using bunk beds. For instance, the top bunk is only for sleeping and shouldn't be used for jumping or playing games. In the same way, the ladder should be secured to the bunk and not be placed close to any furniture or toys that might tempt kids to climb over it. In addition, children should be taught to climb up and down the ladder slowly and carefully. When making your bunk bed take into consideration a ladder that attaches to the side of the bed instead of one that runs beneath it. This will lessen the chance of falling or getting caught up in clothing or bedding. Consider installing an extra nightlight in the room near the bunk bed. This will give your children a better sense of safety when they climb into and out of bed at the night. It's an excellent idea to check the openings and spaces on the guardrails and the mattress foundations prior to letting your children sleep there. The ideal is for them to not be more than 5 inches in width and not located in the places where children's heads may strike when they are sitting up straight in the upper bunk.
