Size

When you are looking for a bunk bed that comes with a double bed size, size is a key aspect to take into consideration. Many children grow rapidly and may require you to purchase a new bunk bed before they outgrow the one you have. The kind of mattress you pick is also an essential consideration when choosing the bunk bed.

Twin over twin bunk beds are the most popular bunk bed configurations. They are made up of two twin beds stacked on top of each other and are great for siblings who share rooms. Twin over twin bunks can accommodate the standard twin mattresses that are 39 inches wide and 75 inches long. Consider twin XL mattresses if you are looking for a more luxurious mattress. These mattresses are five inches larger than the normal twins. They're great for teens, college students, and adults.

Full over full bunk beds have an entire mattress on the bottom bunk, which is great for adults as well as children who are taller than the average. The full-size bed measures 54 inches wide and 75 inches in length. A majority of these beds are equipped with a trundle, which can be pulled out from underneath the bed to provide additional sleeping space.

Some bunk beds come with separate loft beds of twin size that can be divided into separate beds. This is a great choice if you wish to future-proof the bunk bed by separating the lower and upper beds or if your children decide to change rooms in the future.

You can also find bunk beds that do not require a box spring or foundation because the frame of these beds elevates the mattress. This is an excellent option for families with budget as it removes the necessity for foundations or box springs.

The number of people you must sleep with on the bunk bed will influence your choice of frame and mattress. Larger rooms can accommodate triple bunk beds or L-shaped bunk beds. Smaller rooms are better for a twin over full or full over twin arrangement.

Style

Depending on the configuration, bunk beds with double mattresses can be used by children or adults. Standard bunk beds are stacked one over each other with the top bed accessible via ladder. This arrangement is perfect for rooms with limited space and makes the space more functional. A futon bunk is another option. It is designed as a standard bunk, however it includes a lower futon couch with a Western style that can be transformed into bed. This bed is ideal for families with teenagers and college students. It can accommodate up to four people.

If you want to outfit your bunk bed with extra storage space, consider an item that incorporates drawers for clothing or other things. Some sets come with desks that are built-in and a wooden panel on the side of the staircase which can be used as a unique spot to hang wall art or decor. Bunk beds that have desks are ideal for bedrooms for children, but they can also work well in guest rooms or as the principal bedroom for older kids and teenagers.

The color of the bunk bed can affect the overall appearance of your room. For instance white bunk beds will give an airy and light feel and dark wood bunk beds creates a more traditional or rustic look. If you're considering using a twin bunk bed in a bedroom shared by children pick a color that complements the furniture. Bunk beds can be used to complement the theme of nautical as in this bedroom from Kirsten Brockner Interiors that features sea-inspired bedding, red and blue striped accents and a stairway fit for a captain's cabin.

Keep the style simple and clean when decorating a bunk that has a double-sized bed. This allows it to be easily altered by your child as they grow older and their preferences change. For instance, a bunk bed with double twin bunk bed beds with a neutral stone-colored finish can be easily updated by the addition of bright throw pillows in different shades.

Safety

One of the main considerations when buying a bunk bed is safety. Bunk beds can be extremely risky if they're not built or the kids do not follow the rules. It's important that you take measurements of the space where you'd like to put it and compare the dimensions of the frame carefully against the dimensions of your mattress. This will ensure that the mattress is perfectly fitted and that your child can get in and out of the bed without any issues.

Guard rails are a key security feature. They should be located on the top and bottom bunks. They should be constructed of solid piece of wood that is securely fastened to the frame of the bunk. Additionally any gaps, holes or openings on the frame of a bunk bed must be small enough to keep children's heads, legs or torsos from being caught in the gaps. To prevent tripping hazards, it's a good idea ensure that ladders and stairs used to climb up the bunk bed frame are either part of the frame itself or are.

Another important safety tip is to never allow children younger than six to sleep on the top bunk. Most injuries related to bunk beds occur to children younger than this age, and more than half of them happen because of falls. It is a good idea too, to establish clear rules for the use of the bunk bed, and to stress that the top bunk should not be used for jumping or playing.

It is crucial to ensure that no clothing belts, jump ropes hang off the frame of a bunk bed. They can pose a serious strangulation hazard for children. You can purchase shelves that clip easily to the sides and give your child somewhere to store their essentials for the night, so they don't have to leave their bed at night to find them.

Stores

Bunk beds are a great way to fit two people in one room, without taking up too much space. The bed's upper portion is typically accessible via a ladder which is perfect for siblings sharing bedrooms, or for family members living in small apartment.

Bunk bed frames come in various sizes, shapes and styles that will fit in with any space. They can be made to meet the requirements of each sleeping individual. For instance for instance, if one child likes the top bed and another prefers the bottom bunk and the beds can be arranged so that they face each the other. This allows each person to have their own private space, while still being within the family.

Another feature that many homeowners of bunk beds enjoy is the option of incorporating storage drawers under the bed or trundles to their frames. These add-ons can be placed beneath the bunk bed to store clothes or blankets. These add-ons can also serve to provide extra space for guests to come to visit.

Trundles are also available for bunk beds as pull-out mattresses. They can be accessed by just one step and are located beneath the bottom bunk bed. This can provide a comfortable spot for one extra sleeping person when guests are in and eliminates the requirement to take out an air mattress.

Anyone who is considering purchasing a bunk bed should consider the safety features. Check for side rails in the upper and lower bunks to keep a child from falling off the top bunk. It's also important to consider how thick of a mattress you can comfortably place on the upper bunk as too thick of a mattress can cause a sleeping child to roll off of the rails that guard them while asleep and hurt himself or herself.

The type of ladder that you select for your bunk beds is an additional safety option. Some bunk beds come with a long ladder connecting the lower and upper rails. Some include a shorter ladder that is tacked to the front of upper guard rail. This is the most suitable option for children because it makes climbing up to the top bunk more secure and easier.
