Ladders

A bunk bed is an excellent way to maximize space in a child's bedroom without the security features. It is important to remember that children should not be sleeping on the top bunk until they reach six years old. This is due to the ladder used to get on and off the upper bed could result in injuries if not properly installed or used. To ensure that your child can safely climb onto and off the bunk, there are several things to consider when choosing the right ladder.

The first thing to take into consideration when selecting the height of a ladder. The ideal ladder height ranges between 58 and 60 inches, however this varies based on the dimensions of the bunk. The ladder should be fixed to the side of bunk frame, and should not exceed 5 inches above the top guardrails. This will stop a child from becoming caught between the guardrails and the ladder.

Another thing to take into consideration when choosing a bunk ladder is the number of rungs it has. Ideally, the ladder should have seven or more rungs, and be evenly spaced. The width of the ladder should be proportional to the child's height and age to allow them to easily use it. It is also a good idea to choose an upholstered ladder. These ladders will have a tread that is grippy and will reduce the chance of slipping off the bunk.

Bunk Beds Store of bunk beds have a built-in ladder, which is an excellent option for those who do not wish to purchase separate ladders.

Some ladders are angled to provide a safe and comfortable climbing surface for both adults as well as children.

To apply the tape, you'll need to take off the liner in black from the ladder, and then cut it to the proper size. Press it firmly on both sides once it's placed to ensure that it adheres properly.


Headboards

A headboard is an oversized frame that a child's head rests when they sleep. It can be constructed from metal, wood or any other upholstered material. A headboard can be designed to fit into a frame with or without siderails. It could also come with an added feature, like shelves built in, to aid in the organization of a child's or her belongings and create a an inviting space for sleep time.

The safety of a top bunk is of vital importance to parents, particularly when children are younger. While the maximum capacity of a top bunk is often described as equivalent to or higher than a regular twin mattress, most manufacturers advise that the top bunk be used only with a mattress no thicker than 4 to 6 inches. If the mattress is thicker, the sleeper may end up being taller than the guard rails, which can pose a risk.

If your top bunk is straight, you can fix it to the bed with ladder hooks that are attached to the frame. Hooks can be fixed to either the left or right side of the ladder, unless there is a headboard blocking them. If you'd prefer a more permanent solution then you could choose inclined ladders.

It's not a great idea to build a desk inside the bunk bed as children can hit their head or feet on the desk as they climb in and out of the bed. The desk should be placed so that the child is able to reach the chair without difficulty, and not too far from the bed.

Under-bed drawers are a great option for top bunk beds. These storage spaces are ideal for storing extra bedding, sheets, seasonal clothes and toys as well as other items.
