Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Kids bunk beds are ideal for maximising space while reducing the cost of separate rooms. Choose models with sturdy foundations, and mattress supports to prevent gaps or areas where children could become stuck or trapped.
The way the bed is accessible is also crucial. Bunk beds are typically accessible via ladders or stairs, and angled ladders take less space than traditional vertical ladders.
Space-saving Design
Bunk beds are the ideal way to maximize a small space. Bunk beds for kids are a great way to make space in a tiny room or attic. They also provide the comfort and style. Most bunk beds come in twin over full or queen over twin configurations, so your kids can share a bed, while having their own space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent option, particularly when the bunk on the bottom can be used as a playroom or office during the day.
The majority of bunk beds come with an entryway or ladder built into the frame. The ladder's height shouldn't exceed 5-6 feet above the ceiling for safety reasons. This will stop heads from bumping and ensure that the child sleeping on the top bunk does not rest too high.
Consider a wooden bunkbed with stairs for your kids' bedroom furniture to appear stylish. This will not only add a stylish touch to your child's bedroom but also provide ample storage space for all the toys, books and other items they might require.
Some bunks can also be converted from a bed to a futon. This allows your children to make use of the lower bunk bed as a couch during the day and then slide out the top futon to make an ideal sleeping space at night. This kind of bunk bed is ideal for those who have plenty of space and your children are old enough to be able to handle the extra sleeping surface.
If you don't have the space for traditional bunks consider alternatives such as a corner loft or bunk. These beds are placed in the corner of the room. This allows room for other furniture, like dressers or shelves. Some bunk beds have an attached desk, so your children can complete their homework while still in their beds. This will help them to focus and develop good habits during their study time.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are perfect for kids who want to sleep separately but don't have the space to have two bedrooms. A majority of our beds feature an incline to make it easier for kids to climb up the top bunk. This is much safer than climbing over the sides of the bed, which can be dangerous. Children should only climb on the top bunk when they are able safely climb it. This usually happens at least six years of age.
While many parents are tempted to buy bunk beds that have straight ladders, we would suggest opting for ones with angled ladders to increase safety and convenience. These ladders provide a more comfortable climbing experience and are also easier to grip. To climb, kids put their feet on the rungs one at a time and then climb up until they reach the top bunk. Look for a ladder with anti-slip grooves as well as handhole cutouts to help children to grip the ladder while they climb.
If you're looking for a permanent solution There are a variety of styles of stairways that can be permanently mounted to the frame of a bunk bed. They have a railing around the staircase to provide additional safety. They also have a wider tread to prevent slipping and falling. To give a more attractive look, consider the stairs that have built-in storage drawers that are ideal for keeping your children's rooms tidy and tidy.
Another way to save space is by opting for loft beds that don't connect to the bottom bunk with an elevated ladder, which leaves plenty of space underneath for children to play or sleep. Many of these loft and bunk beds are designed to resemble a treehouse or other structures that are fun, making them the ideal option for children who love to spend time outdoors. Some of our bunk beds and lofts also feature an optional slide to add a touch of fun.
Extra Storage
Many bunk and loft bed options offer additional storage to ensure that children's rooms are tidy. These beds make use of vertical space to store clothes, books, toys and much more without taking up valuable floor space. These beds work well with both traditional and modern bedroom styles. Pottery Barn Kids has a an extensive selection of twin beds that are perfect for 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.

This is a great option for children sharing rooms, since it allows them to keep each other's possessions away from each other's reach.
This Maxtrix loft includes a built-in desk and hutch to create an study area. The solid wood desk can be easily removed from under the bed and folded back into the bed when not in use.
