Buying Bunk Beds KidsBunk beds allow siblings to share a space without compromising their individual space and they can also be an ideal option for sleepovers. These beds can include ladders or stairs that can be used to reach the top bunk and are constructed of wood and metal.SizeCompare the dimensions of your room to the dimensions of a bunk bed before you purchase it. You'll need to ensure there is enough space for your kids to climb the ladder or stairs (if they're part of the set) and move around the loft without hitting furniture or walls. Also, you should consider the dimensions of the bunk bed and headroom in relation with your child's sitting and standing height. You may need to buy an earlier-sized bunk to accommodate children who are younger, while older children might prefer a higher setup.Bunk beds for children are available in two styles twin-overtwin and full-overfull. Both are excellent options for accommodating multiple children in one room. Some bunks come with an trundle bed that can accommodate more guests during sleepovers. If your children are young, look for an extremely low bunk, so that the bottom bunk is not more than 50 inches off the ground. This will prevent your children from falling out of their beds, which is a safety hazard.The distance between the top bunk and the guardrails is another factor to consider. The CPSC recommends that the the top mattress be no greater than 5 inches over the guardrail. This will prevent your children from rolling out of their bed in the middle of the night and crashing into the guardrails, which can cause injuries or falls.The best bunk beds for kids are made of sturdy materials and meet CPSC safety standards, according to Ganjian.

It's also an excellent idea to regularly check the bunk bed for any signs of wear and tear and then make repairs as required.The top bunk's height should be kept to a maximum of 4 feet. There should be guardrails at both ends of the bed. The gap between guardrails shouldn't be more than 3 1/2 inch to avoid death by suffocation. This will also ensure that your child cannot slide under the guardrail while sleeping. The bottom mattress should be secured by wires or slats running directly underneath the bunk. They must also be secured on both sides. This will prevent your child from falling through a gap.The ladders or stairs must be affixed to the bunk bed and secure and should provide a safe means of climbing to the higher level. Make sure the ladder isn't located near any dangers, and that your children are aware that they should only use it to get into bed. Avoid rough play on the bunks, since this could compromise their stability.It isn't possible to determine a specific age for children to be in bunk beds.
