Kids Double Bunk Bed
The double bunk beds are perfect for siblings sharing a room. It is important to remember that the child sleeping on the top level is older than six years old and that you stop horseplay and jumping on beds.
Also, make sure that the mattress's foundation doesn't have huge gaps that could allow children to slip through.
Safety
Bunk beds can be a safe space for children to sleep in if they are installed correctly and if the parents follow certain safety guidelines. The first thing to consider is to ensure that the bunk bed is positioned in an area that is cornered, so that it doesn't shake as children climb up and down the ladder.
It is essential to teach your children not to play on the bunk bed or within it. Get rid of any toys that could pose an accident hazard. Children should also be instructed to always use the ladder for getting into and out of the bunk above.
Children shouldn't be allowed to sleep on the top bunk unless they are older than six years old. The reason for this is that younger children may not have the maturity or coordination to safely navigate the ladder. It is also important to make sure that the guardrails are properly secured to the bunk above and there aren't any gaps that children can slip through and get trapped beneath the bed.
Another important safety aspect to take into consideration is that the foundation of both the lower and upper bunks should be built with solid wood and not slats. Slat-based systems are susceptible to collapse under the weight and can cause serious injuries. Also, it is a good idea to reinforce the bottom bunk with cross ties to prevent it from shifting or buckling due to the weight of the children.
It is a good idea if the child will be sleeping alone on the bottom bunk, to put up a safety rail. This will prevent the child from falling over the edge of the bunk should they roll out in the night.
A simple precaution is to make sure that the bunk bed doesn't be placed directly under the ceiling fan. This reduces the chance of accidents or injuries when the ceiling fan is on. In addition the bunk bed should be placed away from windows as this will reduce the risk of children attempting to reach them from the upper part of the bunk bed.
