Kids Double Bunk Bed

Kids double bunk bed are a great option for siblings sharing the same space. It is important to remember that the child who sleeps on the upper level is at least six years old, and that you do not allow horseplay or jumping on beds.

Also, make sure that the mattress's foundation isn't filled with massive gaps that could permit children to slip through.

Safety

Bunk beds are safe for children to sleep in if they are properly erected and if parents adhere to certain safety guidelines. The first step is to ensure that the bunk bed is set in a corner to ensure that it doesn't wobble when kids climb up and down the ladder.

It is essential to teach your children not to play on the bunk bed or within it. Take away any toys that pose dangerous to trip on. Children should be taught to use the ladder at any time they wish to enter or exit the bunk bed.

Children should not be allowed to sleep on the top bunk unless older than six years old. The reason is that children younger than six may not have the maturity or coordination to safely climb the ladder. In addition it is important to ensure that the guardrails on the upper bunk are properly secured and that there are no gaps that might allow children to slip through and become trapped underneath the mattress.

The foundation area of the upper and lower bunks should be constructed from solid wood, not slats. Slat-based systems could collapse under the weight of the children and result in serious injuries. It is also a good idea to reinforce the bunk's bottom with cross-ties to prevent it from moving due to the weight of children.

Finally, it is recommended to secure the bunk bed for adults's bottom with a safety rail if a child will be sleeping on it alone. This will stop the child from falling over the edge of the bunk should they roll out in the night.

Another safety measure that is easy to implement is to make sure that the bunk bed isn't placed directly under the ceiling fan. This will prevent the risk of injuries and accidents when the fan is running. The bunk bed should also be placed away from windows to reduce the possibility that children might try to reach the windows from the upper level.
