Kids Bunk Bed – A Great Way to Maximize Space

Kids bunk beds are a great way to maximize space and save money on separate rooms. Choose beds that have solid foundations and mattress supports that prevent gaps or spaces where children could get stuck or caught.

The method by which the bed is accessible is also crucial. Bunk beds are generally accessed via stairs or ladders, and angled ladders take up less space than standard vertical ladders.

Space-Saving Design

Bunk beds can be a great option to maximize space in a small room. Bunk beds for children are a great way to free up space in a tiny room or attic. They also provide comfort and style. Most bunk beds offer twin over full or twin over queen configurations, so your kids bedroom furniture can sleep side-by-side while still having their own space. A three-person bunk bed can be an excellent option, especially if the bottom bunk will be used as a playroom or office during the day.

The majority of bunk beds have a ladder or staircase built into the frame. The ladder’s height should not exceed 5-6 feet from the ceiling to ensure safety. This is to avoid bumped heads and to ensure that the kid sleeping on the top bunk isn’t high up.

Think about a wooden bunkbed that has stairs for your kids’ bedroom furniture to appear stylish. This will not only add a fashionable accent to your child’s bedroom but also provide ample storage space for all the toys, books and knickknacks they may need.

Some bunks can be converted from a bed to a futon. This allows your children to utilize the lower bunk bed as a couch during the daytime, and then pull out the top futon for an ideal sleeping space at night. This kind of bunk is great if you have the room and your children are old enough to manage the extra sleeping surface.

If you don’t have the space to accommodate the traditional bunk bed, look into a corner bunk or loft. These beds are placed across the corner of your kids’ room, which leaves the room for other furniture like dressers or shelves. Some bunks also have beds with a desk attached, which makes it easy for your little ones to do homework while lying in bed. This can help them remain focused and help them develop good habits during their study time.

Easy Climbing Ladder

Bunk beds can be the ideal solution for kids who prefer to sleep in separate rooms, but don’t have enough space for two separate rooms. Most of our bunk beds are equipped with a ladder that makes it easier for children to climb up the top bed. This is safer than climbing over the sides of the bed, which could be risky. Kids should only attempt to climb on top bunks only if they are old enough to do so safely, which typically happens when they are at least six years old.

Although many parents are enticed to buy bunk beds with straight ladders, we suggest choosing beds with angled ladders to increase safety and convenience. These ladders provide a more comfortable climbing experience, and they’re also easier to grip. To climb, children place their feet on the rungs one at atime and move up until they reach top bunk. For even more safety, choose a ladder that has grooved anti-slip steps and hand hole cutouts that allow kids to hold onto while they climb.

If you’re looking for a more permanent solution, we offer many different styles of stairs that can be fixed to the frame of the bunk bed. The stairs have an edging that is placed around the stairs to ensure safety, and they have an extra wide tread to avoid falls and slips. To give a more attractive look, consider a set of stairs with built-in storage drawers, which are an excellent way to keep your kids’ rooms organized and neat.

Another method to reduce space is by opting for loft beds that don’t connect to the bottom bunk by a ladder at all and leaves plenty of space beneath for children to play or to sleep. Many of these bunk and loft beds are designed to be reminiscent of a treehouse or some other structures that are fun, making them an ideal choice for children who love spending time in the outdoors. Some of our loft and bunk beds come with an optional slide for an additional touch of excitement.

Extra Storage

Many bunk and loft beds provide additional storage options for kids bedroom furniture to keep their rooms tidy and neat. These beds use vertical space to store clothes books, toys, and much more without taking up valuable floor space. These beds work well with both modern and traditional bedroom styles. Pottery Barn Kids has a numerous twin over full beds that will fit your child’s bedroom and needs.

The classic Maxtrix loft bed with drawers is a great option to provide additional storage space to your child’s bunk beds. It has two large drawers that can be used to store clothes, shoes or bedtime necessities, among other things. The drawers are mounted on casters that are unidirectional making it easy for kids to open and close them. This is a great option for children who share one room. It allows them to keep their belongings separate from one another.

This Maxtrix loft bed has a built-in desk and an hutch to create a practical study nook. The solid wood desk can be easily pulled out from under the bed, and folded back in when not being used. This gives you more room in the bedroom for play. It’s a smart option for kids who love to make crafts all day long or use the computer to complete homework assignments.

The bottom bed on this Maxtrix bunk can be turned into a comfy sofa when it’s not time for sleep. This is a great choice for kids who like to invite their friends to sleepovers or parents who wish to free up space in the guest room. This twin over futon option is also ideal for children who are transitioning to regular beds from cribs.

Loft beds and bunk beds are great for kids who love to climb, and are full of energy. These beds are a fun alternative for traditional bedroom furniture. They are available in a variety of different designs, finishes, and configurations. There are also options that include a storage ladder or a trundle for guests staying over making it easy to accommodate the changing needs of a family’s requirements in a single space.

Fun Slide

The fun of bunk beds for kids can be increased with the addition of a slide. Children love to race down from the top bunk. The excitement stimulates active and imaginative play, making it much easier to get up and ready for sleeping at night.

Bunk beds with slide are a great option for families with growing children and shared rooms. Kids can race up the ladder, then slide down the slide. This can bring hours of fun to their rooms.

Our unique loft and bunk bed models with slide are available in twin and full sizes, so they can be easily incorporated into most rooms. They can also be separated later to create two standard beds.

Our bunk beds that have slides include the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. This can be attached to either the side of the ladder, or in front, based on the dimensions of the room. The slide can protrude up to 190 cm, depending on the height of the frame. A 70-cm exit opening is required.
