Safety

Bunk beds are a safe spot for children to sleep in if they are properly installed and the parents follow certain safety guidelines. First, make sure that the bunk bed is in a corner, so that it doesn't wobble when kids climb up the ladder.

This is because younger children are likely to lack the maturity and coordination required to navigate the ladder safely. In addition, it is essential to make sure that the guardrails on the upper bunk are properly anchored and that there are no gaps that might let children slide through and fall underneath the mattress.

The foundation of the upper and lower bunks should be made of solid wood not slats. Slat-based systems could collapse under the weight of the children and result in serious injuries.
