Kids Double Bunk Bed
Double bunk beds for kids are a great choice for siblings who share the same room. Remember that the child on the top bunk bed must be at least six years older. Also, do not allow jumping or horseplay on the beds.
Also, make sure the mattress's foundation doesn't have large gaps that could allow a child to slip through.
Safety
Bunk beds can be a safe place for children to sleep if they're properly installed and the parents follow certain safety guidelines. First, make sure that the bunk bed is set in a corner to ensure it doesn't shake when children climb the ladder.
It is also crucial to instruct children to not play on or around the bunk bed and to remove any toys that may be tripping hazards. Children should also be instructed to always use the ladder for getting out and into the upper bunk.
Children should not be allowed to sleep on the top bunk unless older than six years old. The reason for this is that children younger than six may not have the maturity or coordination required to safely climb the ladder. It is also essential to make sure that the guardrails are properly secured on the upper bunk and that there aren't any gaps children can slip through and be trapped beneath the bed.
Another important safety feature to consider is that the foundation of both the lower and upper bunks should be constructed of solid wood, not slats. Slat-based systems could collapse under the weight of children and result in serious injuries. It is also a good idea reinforce the bottom bunk using cross ties in order to prevent it from shifting under the weight of the children.
It is also a good idea to anchor the bunk's bottom with a safety rail when a child will be sleeping in it by himself. This will prevent the child from falling over the edge of the bunk should they roll out in the night.
Another security measure that is simple to implement is to ensure that the bunk bed isn't located directly beneath the ceiling fan. This reduces the risk of injuries and accidents occurring when the fan is in operation. The bunk bed should also be kept away from windows to decrease the possibility that children might attempt to enter the windows from the upper levels.
