20 Trailblazers Lead The Way In Mid Bunk Bed

Mid Bunk Bed

Mid bunk beds are a favorite with children from pre-teens to teens. They feature an elevated sleeping space as well as an area underneath to store things or desks. They're also more flexible than high loft beds since they can convert into two separate single beds.

Some are designed with a ladder and small steps leading to the top bunk bed. They are also very durable.

Safety

Bunk beds can be a risk especially for children. Each year thousands of kids are taken to hospital for injuries that result from bunk beds and loft beds - most of which are minor. The majority of bunk bed accidents happen when children are playing on or around the beds. A significant portion of these involve falling off the top bunk. There are several ways you can help minimize the risk and keep your kids safe at night.

The first thing to consider is that you should select a bunk bed that is in compliance with all safety standards. This includes having guardrails that extend to at minimum 3.5 inches on both sides of the mattress. Additionally, they are properly secured to prevent kids from falling off. The guardrails on the upper side must be at least five inches higher than the mattress to guard against falls. The ladder should be firmly and securely attached to the bunk frame. Steps for the ladder should be constructed of sturdy materials and have wide, well-secured treads to prevent slips. It is also important to educate children about proper use of bunk beds starting from the first day. This includes not playing around or on the bunk beds, laying down only in them, and making sure that your body and possessions are within the guardrails.

Other easy steps that can dramatically reduce the risk of bed accidents include ensuring the ladder isn't used as a climbing frame and there are no belts or ropes attached to the beds; they could be strangulation hazards. It is also important to ensure that the ladder is away from light fixtures and ceiling fans to reduce the chance of bumping into them when climbing up and down. It is also recommended to regularly inspect the bunk bed for signs of wear, particularly any squeaks that could indicate faulty or damaged components that could compromise the safety or stability of the bed.

Be wary of DIY bunk bed kits as they may not meet the most current safety standards. When buying bunk beds, make sure to consult the manufacturer's instructions and inquire about any safety features that may be available.

Space
