Kids Bunk Bed – A Great Way to Maximize Space
Bunk beds for children are a great choice to save money and make the most of space. Choose beds that have sturdy foundations and mattress supports that prevent gaps or areas that children might become trapped or stuck.
Another factor to consider is how the bed is accessible: bunks typically have stairs or ladders, with angled ladders taking less space than traditional vertical ones.
Space-saving Design
Bunk beds are the perfect solution to maximize a small space. Bunk beds for children are a great way to make space in a tiny room or attic. They also offer convenience and elegance. The majority of bunk beds come with twin over full or twin over queen configurations, so your children can share a bed while enjoying their own space. A three-person bunk bed can be an excellent option, particularly in the event that the lower bunk will be used as an office or playroom during the daytime.
The majority of bunk bed s come with an entryway or ladder built into the frame. For safety reasons it is recommended that the ladder’s height should not be more than 5-6 feet from the ceiling. This will prevent bumping heads and ensure that the child who sleeps on the top bunk doesn’t rest too high.
Consider a wooden bunkbed with stairs If you want your child’s bedroom furniture to look stylish. This will not only add an additional stylish element to your children’s room, but it also offers ample storage space for each book, toy and items they’ll need to stow away.
Some bunks also offer the possibility of expanding from a standard bed to a futon. This lets your children make use of the lower bunk bed as a couch during the day and then pull out the top futon for a comfortable sleeping area at night. This kind of bunk bed is ideal for those who have plenty of space and your kids are old enough to manage the additional sleeping surface.
If you don’t have enough space for traditional bunks you can consider options such as a corner loft or bunk. These beds are set in the corner of your child’s’ room, which leaves the remaining space for other furniture such as shelves or dressers. Additionally, some bunks have beds that have desks attached, which makes it simple for your little children to complete their homework while sitting up in the bed. This will help them stay focused during their study time and helps them develop good habits.
Easy Climbing Ladder
Bunk beds are a great solution for children who want to sleep in separate rooms but do not have the space for two separate rooms. Many of our bunk beds come with a ladder that makes it easy for children to climb up the top of the bed. This is more secure than climbing up the sides of the bunk bed which could be dangerous. Children should only climb on the top bunk when they can safely climb it. This is usually at least six years of age.
Many parents are enticed by the straight ladders on bunk beds, but we suggest angles to increase security and ease of use. These ladders are easier to grip and provide a more comfortable experience. To climb, kids simply set their feet on each step one at a time and then move their bodies upwards until they reach the top bunk. Think about a ladder that comes with anti-slip grooves as well as handhole cutouts to help youngsters to hold onto the ladder as they climb.
If you’re looking for a more permanent solution, we offer various styles of stairs that can be permanently attached to the frame of the bunk bed. The stairs are equipped with a railing around the staircase to ensure safety. They also have a wider tread that prevents slipping and falling. You can choose a set with built-in drawers to give it an attractive appearance. This is a great option to keep your child’s room clean and organized.
A loft bed without a ladder connecting it to the bottom bunk is another way to save space. This gives more space for kids to play and sleep underneath. The loft and bunk beds typically resemble a treehouse, which makes them a great option for kids who enjoy playing in the outdoors. Some of our bunk and loft beds come with an optional slide to add an extra thrill.
Extra Storage
Many loft and bunk beds also have storage options that can help children keep their rooms neat and tidy. These beds use vertical space to store clothes books, toys, and more without taking up valuable floor space. These beds are compatible with both traditional and modern bedroom styles. Pottery Barn Kids has a numerous twin beds that are perfect for your child’s bedroom and requirements.
A classic Maxtrix loft with drawers is an an easy method to add storage space to your child’s bunk bed. It has two large drawers that can be used to store clothes, shoes or bedtime necessities, among other things. The drawers have unidirectional casters that make it easy for children to open and close them. This is a great option for children who share the same space, as it can help keep the belongings of one another out of each other’s reach.
This Maxtrix loft features a built-in desk and hutch to create an area for study. The solid wood desk for kids is easily removed from underneath the bed, and folds up when not in use, thus preserving space to play. This is a great choice for kids that like to work on their computer or do crafts all day long.
When it’s time to sleep the bunk at the bottom of this Maxtrix can be transformed into a comfortable sofa. This is a great solution for kids who like to invite their friends over for sleepovers or for parents who want to save space in their guest room.

Fun Slide
The fun factor of bunk beds for kids can be enhanced even further by the addition of a slide. The excitement of children rushing down the top bunk stimulates imaginative play and activity, making it easier to sleep at time of night.
Bunk beds with slides are an excellent way to combine play and sleep in one space, ideal for shared kid’s rooms and growing families. Kids can race each other up the ladder and then slide down the slide to bring hours of fun to their room.

Our bunk beds that have slides come with the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. This can be attached either to the side of the ladder or the front, depending on the dimensions of the room. Based on the assembly height the slide will extend approximately 190 cm into the room. An exit opening of about 70 cm is required.
