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. Choose beds that have solid foundations and mattress supports that eliminate gaps or spaces that children might be trapped or entangled.
The way the bed is accessible is also a crucial aspect. Bunk beds are usually accessed via stairs or ladders, and angled ladders take less space than standard vertical ladders.

Bunk beds are the ideal option to maximize space in a small room. Bunk beds for kids are a great option to free up space in a tiny room or attic. They also offer comfort and style. The majority of bunk beds are twin over full or queen over twin configurations, so your children can share a bed while having their own space. A three-person bunk bed can be an excellent option, especially in the event that the lower bunk can be used as a playroom or office during the day.
The majority of bunks have ladders built into the frame or a staircase leading to the top bunk. For safety reasons it is recommended that the ladder's height should be no higher than 5-6 feet from the ceiling.
