There are bunk beds that don't require a box spring or foundation, as the frame of these beds elevates the mattress. This is a great choice for families on a budget since it saves money and eliminates the requirement for a separate foundation or box spring.

The number of people who must sleep with on your bunk bed will also influence your choice of frame and mattress. Larger rooms can accommodate triple, L-shaped or trundle bunk beds while smaller rooms are better suited for twin over full or twin over full layout.

Style

Depending on the configuration, bunk beds with double mattresses can be used by children or adults. Standard bunk beds are stacked on the top of each other, with the top bed accessible by an incline. This arrangement is great for rooms with a limited space and helps make the room more functional. A futon bunk is another option.

Some sets come with desks that are built-in and a wooden panel at the end of the staircase, which can serve as a unique place to hang wall art or other decor. Bunk beds that include desks are ideal for bedrooms for children, but they can also be used as an extra bedroom for guests or as the main bedroom of older kids and teens.

The color of your bunk bed may affect the overall look of your room. For instance, a white bunk bed can provide a light and airy feel and dark wood bunk beds gives a more traditional or rustic vibe. If you plan to use bunk beds in a shared bedroom for children choose a paint finish that will match your furniture pieces. Bunk beds are a great option to add a nautical theme.

For instance, a bunk with double beds with a neutral stone-colored finish can be easily updated by the addition of a few bright throw pillows in different shades.

Safety

Safety is a major factor when buying a bunk bed. Bunk beds can be incredibly dangerous if they're poorly built or the children don't adhere to the rules. You should measure the space where you intend to put the bunk bed, and compare the dimensions of the frame with the dimensions of the mattress. This will ensure that the mattress fits perfectly and that there is enough room for your child to get into and out of bed without any issues.

A key safety feature to look out for is guard rails on both the top and bottom bunks. These should be a solid piece of wood that is securely fastened to the frame of the bunk. Any gaps, openings or holes in the frame of the bunk bed should be sized so that children's heads, legs or torsos aren't trapped in them. To prevent accidents from tripping, it is a good idea to ensure that ladders and stairs used to climb up the frame of the bunk bed are part or the frame itself.

Another important safety tip is to never allow children under the age of six to sleep on the top bunk. The majority of injuries resulting from bunk beds happen to children under this age, and more than half happen because of falls. It's a good idea, also, to establish clear rules for the use of the bunk bed, and to stress that the top bunk should not be used for bouncing or playing.

Finally, it's an excellent idea to make sure that no clothes, belts or jump ropes hang from the frame of the bunk bed because they could pose serious strangulation risks to children. You can purchase shelves that can be easily clipped to the sides and give your child a place to store their night-time necessities, so they don't have to leave their bed in the dark to find them.

Storage

Bunk beds are a great way to accommodate two people in a room and not take up too much space. The upper bed is typically accessible via a ladder, which is ideal for families with children sharing the bedroom, or for family members who live in small apartments.

Bunk beds come in many sizes and styles to suit any room. They can be even adjusted to meet the preferences of the people sleeping. For instance, if one child prefers to sleep on the top of the bunk and the other the bottom, the beds can be set up so that they face each one. This allows each person to have their personal space while having the comfort of being surrounded by loved ones.

Many owners of bunk beds like the option of adding under-bed storage drawers and trundles. These extras can be put underneath the lower bunk bed to store clothes or blankets. They also give extra space for sleepovers when guests visit.

Apart from drawers for under-bed storage, trundles can also be added to bunk beds in the form of mattresses that can be pulled out beneath the bottom bed and can be easily opened with a simple step. This allows for an additional sleeping space when guests are visiting and eliminates the requirement for an air mattress.

Safety features are a must for anyone who is considering buying a bunk bed. You'll want to check for side rails on both the lower and upper bunks that prevent children from falling off the top bunk. It's also important to take into consideration the amount of mattress you can fit on the upper bunk, because a too thick mattress can cause a sleeper to roll off of the guard rails in the middle of sleep and hurt him or herself.

Other options for safety include the kind of ladder you select for your bunk bed. Certain bunk beds have a long ladder that connects the upper and lower guard rails, whereas other types have an easier ladder that connects to the front of the upper guard rail. This is the most suitable option for children as it makes climbing to the top bunk safer and more comfortable.
