Parenting is never an easy duty. One of the most important aspects of this job includes keeping your children safe from harm. Even sleeping at night can pose both serious and non-serious threats. Every year, thousands of children experience accidents involving bunk beds. Most are minor injuries; however it is not rare to see serious injuries from accidents such as falling off the top bunk, or suffocation on guard railings (although the latter is rare).
The next part of this article will look at some of most common sources of injuries from bunk beds, and things you can do to prevent them; thus keeping your child safe at night while they sleep.
Guardrail Spacing:
One of the most common threats to child safety in regards to bunk beds is the guardrails. They are of so much concern because if not properly installed they can pose opportunities for serious injury. For example, if the guard rail is too low, there is a chance your child can fall off the top bunk during sleep (especially if he or she constantly rolls while sleeping). Also, if the spacing between the guardrails and the bunk bed are too wide, then there are chances that a child’s head can get stuck in between the two, which in some rare cases, can cause suffocation. Thankfully, all bunk beds that are manufactured now must pass a US Safety Inspection. If accepted, they will receive a certificate that says the bunk bed meets the highest of safety standards. This greatly increases guardrail safety which will reduce the number of accidents caused by bunk beds.
Upper Bunk Support:
Another common threat is the upper bunk coming down. This is usually caused when there is not enough support holding up the upper bunk’s bed frame, mattress, and of course the child. But as with the note above on guardrails, when a bunk bed passes the US Safety Inspection, you can be certain that the build quality of the bunk bed meets the highest of standards. Therefore, accidents such as these are very unlikely.
The Mattress Size:
Probably the most obvious, but heavily overlooked aspect of child safety in regards to bunk beds is the mattress size. It is important to get the right sized mattress for the bunk bed because wrong-sized mattresses can cause falls, or increase the gap between safety rails and frame.
These threats and more can be prevented however. The Consumer Product Safety Commission has given out the following tips to safely selecting, using, and maintaining your bunk beds. They suggest that you make sure:
- That your bunk bed has guard rails on all four sides.
- The gap between the bed frame and the bottom of the guard rail does not exceed 3.5 inches (89 mm).
- Guardrails extend at least 5 inches (127 mm) above the mattress surface to prevent the child from falling off.
- To include cross ties under the mattress foundation, which can be securely attached.
- That the ladder is securely attached to the bunk bed. Replace any broken ladder rungs immediately.
- Select a bunk bed that has the feature of easily and safely separating itself into two single-sized beds.
- That the mattress fits tightly against all four sides of the bed frame.
- Do not permit children under the age of 6 to use or occupy the upper bunk
- That you emphasize to the children to always use the ladder to get on the upper bunk. Never use chairs or other furniture.
- To teach children that horseplay can be dangerous.
- Consider using a nightlight so that children can see the ladder if they need to use it if they wake up during the night or when it’s dark.
- Constantly check that bunk bed is sturdy.
Other tips include:
- Replace or repair any broken parts immediately.
- If the gap between the guard rail and bed frame is larger than 3.5 inches (as per above), nail or screw in another rail to prevent a child’s head from fitting in between the gap.
- Always check to make sure that the bunk bed contains safety labels. Ask before you make your purchase.
- Add extra slats underneath the bed frames for added support.
Those are some general tips to keeping your child safe as they sleep in their bunk beds. Now your bunk bed should be a wonderland once again where your children can play, sleep, and dream without a care in the world. Your children will b e safe, and you, as a parent, can achieve peace of mind and can sleep soundly yourself. With that, you can look forward to ensuring that your children can sleep well at night and are safe when they wake up in the morning.

Bunk Beds; Simple, Beautiful, And Sometimes Badly Needed
Filed Under Home Improvement | Leave a Comment
Are you in desperate need of extra space in your kid’s room, but hate the idea of buying an ugly old bunk bed? Us, too! Forget those clunky, hulking things that belonged to your father, today’s bunk beds are lighter, and more chic than ever before. With so many different types of materials and beautiful hardwoods or metals to choose from, there is something to fit even the most discriminating palate. Plus, today’s bunk beds have a kind of sculptural elegance not found in traditional children’s bedding options; they also often come equipped with secret nooks and crannies to hold a child’s treasures. The extra storage space can encourage your child to keep his belongings, well, where they belong!
We like using wood for bunk beds. Whether oak, ash, cherry, or any combination, wood is great for bunk beds. It is sturdy, warp-free, and gives the room a warm, golden feel. Darker woods can create a different feel. Maybe you prefer using metal in your décor. In that case, there are also many different metal options to choose from as well. Using metal bunk beds can give the illusion of more space. So shop around, and see what suits your taste. If you don’t see what you like see in the showroom, try shopping online. You will find an unbelievable selection, plus there are plenty of pictures to give you ideas.
There are many shapes and sizes of bunk beds available nowadays. We like the flexibility created by having a full bed on the bottom, with a single bed on top. The flexibility of this design not only creates some visual interest in the room, but allows for extra space. And, as your child grows-particularly through the teenage growth-spurt years, the extra space may serve him well, and extend the life of the bunk bed. If your child is very tall, there are also beds available with an extra-long option. The design of bunk beds has improved so much that there is now a triple-bunk bed design, allowing three to sleep with ease-and in style!
Parents should consider safety first when purchasing a bunk bed. A child will love any bunk bed, but a parent will love a safe one. Every reputable bunk bed has been tested and safety-certified by the ASTM (American Society for Testing Materials). To be certified by the ASTM, a company must follow stringent guidelines, specifically, they must use quality materials and design safe guard rails and ladders. Construction of an ASTM-certified bed will be secure and solid, limiting the risk to little ones, and keeping them safe for years to come.
How long has it been since you’ve climbed something just for the sheer joy of it? If you’d like to go back to those carefree days of your childhood, borrow your kid’s bunk bed for a minute. Climb up the ladder and see what your child sees. Don’t forget to bring a good book.

Bunk Beds are Frequently Used as a Child’s First Regular Bed
Filed Under Home And Family | Leave a Comment
Bunk beds provide a great way to maximize the space in a room, and are particularly for children’s bedrooms or large dormitories. Today, there are many different designs of bunk beds, meaning that it is easy to find a model to suit your own needs, and it is relatively simple to make your own too.
If you are looking to buy a bunk bed, the chances are that it is not for you to sleep on unless you are a college student, for instance. It will probably be for your child. It is therefore important to weigh up the cost against the safety issue.
Bunk beds are frequently used as a child’s first regular bed after he she outgrows a crib, either at about age 2 or 35 inches in height. Some bunk beds also are used separately as twin beds for older children and even adults. It is unlikely that you will be able to find a strong bunk bed for less than $150, and it can often be worth spending another $200.
Top bunks must have at least two guardrails, one for each side. Lower bunks need no guardrails if the mattress foundation is less the 30 inches from the floor. On the wall side, or the side without the ladder must be one continuous piece.
Each year, thousands of children under age 15 receive hospital emergency room treatment for injuries associated with bunk beds. Most of these injuries are fairly minor and occur when children fall from the beds. Horseplay frequently contributes to these accidents.
Perhaps one good tip would be to buy a good quality bunk bed, which can be separated into two twin beds. This means that if you have two children who are sharing a room, they can easily move into their own rooms when the time comes.

Kid Bunk Beds, Just For Kids?
Filed Under Home Improvement | Leave a Comment
Why is it that a bunk bed is so popular with kids? Remember when you were little how exciting it was to climb onto the top bunk in your friend’s bedroom? Only to wonder why you didn’t have a similar set-up?
The first sight of a set of bunk beds to a child is the equivalent of seeing a roomful of wrapped presents on Christmas Day. It’s a place to play, and a space to call their own. Because of the popularity of bunk beds, with demand comes variety. Yes, bunk beds now have themes. Want a castle for your little kings or a dollhouse for your little princess? Of course, traditional styles and themes are still widely available.
Besides the obvious attention factor, bunk beds do serve a purpose. With space in most households at a premium, being able to put one bed on top of another is simple genius. Drawers on the bottom add functionality and a place to store kids’ valuables. How about a separate drawer for each kid? What doesn’t make a kid feel more important than a small box that he or she “owns”. Talk about the ultimate in floor space conservation. Two beds stacked on top of one another, and a toy chest underneath them both. Can’t get that race track set laid out on the floor because there isn’t enough space? Now you know how.
How fun are bunk beds? Just ask a kid, even a kid who doesn’t have any. Just hang a sheet, or curtain over the bottom bunk and you have an instant fort, instant solitude, cut-off from the outside world, alone, with just your thoughts as a kid.
Since many bunk beds are built with kids in mind, they are constructed to take the abuse of a kid. Bunk beds are safer now than they’ve ever been; most are designed to hold up to all the jumping, kicking, pushing and pulling that kids have to offer. Plus with all the safety precautions available for bunk beds now, parents don’t have to worry. Just make sure that your children use the ladder for climbing onto the top bunk. The temptation to leap in a single bound is an eye-widening adventure for some little ones, especially the boys.
Kids’ bunk beds are a great space-saving solution. You don’t even need to have two kids to have a bunk bed either. Sometimes the extra bunk will come in handy for those occasional friend sleepovers.
Yes, the market for kids’ bunk beds is huge. But are they just for kids? Dorm rooms that house college students are primarily stacked with bunk beds, as well as boot camp military-style housing. But what about grown ups? Don’t most couples want to sleep in the same bed? (50% of you don’t answer this!) So why would we as grown ups want one? Well, to decorate our spare bedrooms as guest bedrooms. Home décor is a very, very big market, and most people want the inside of their houses to shine with pride.
So send the kids to bed in style, who knows maybe they’ll even want to go to bed. Combine that with the obvious allure and you have the ingredients for a parent-kid, win-win solution.
