Kids Bunk Bed - A Great Way to Maximize Space
Bunk beds for children are a great way to save money and make the most of space. Look for models with sturdy foundations and mattress supports that prevent gaps or areas where children could get stuck or caught.
The way the bed is accessible is also crucial. Bunk beds are usually accessed via stairs or ladders and angled ladders take less space than traditional vertical ladders.

The majority of bunk beds come with twin over full or twin over queen configurations so your kids can share a bed while still enjoying their personal space. A three-person bunk bed is an excellent choice, particularly in the event that the lower bunk can be used as an office or playroom during the day.
Most bunks have an attached ladder to the frame or a staircase that leads to the top bunk. The ladder's height should not exceed 5-6 feet above the ceiling for safety reasons. This is to prevent bumped heads while ensuring the younger child sleeping on the top bunk doesn't get too high.

For even more safety, choose a ladder with grooved anti-slip steps and hand hole cutouts that make it easier for kids to hold onto as they climb.
