Bunk Beds With Ladders and Slides
Bunk beds are an excellent option to maximize space regardless of whether you're trying to maximize your floor space, or accommodating an entire family. Just keep an eye out for elements like stairs that protrude out from the ground, angled ladders and slides.
It's also an excellent idea to eliminate hanging items from the top bunk, as they can pose the risk of strangulation.
Ladders
It isn't easy for adults and children to climb up into the top bunk. While some may be enticed to climb up, this can be risky for older children or those with joint issues. Ladders are a great solution to this issue and offer a safe and comfortable entry point for children.
There are several ladder options for kids bunk bed s including straight and inclined ladders. Straight ladders connect directly to the frame of the bunk bed, while angled ladders stick out a bit from either side. Angled ladders are a good choice for smaller spaces and are a breeze to use for everyone as they offer more space for feet to climb up the bunk. They also come in a variety of designs and colors so that you can pick one that is in keeping with the design of your space or matches your bunk's color scheme.
A bunk bed with stairs built into the side is another excellent option. They are more space-consuming than ladders, yet they do not protrude from the side of the bed. They're therefore a great option for rooms with plenty of space for floor. Many kids bunk beds come with cubbies for storage. They are perfect for books, toys and pajamas.
If you're on an extremely tight budget, a straight ladder is an affordable option for bunk beds. Straight ladders might not be as good as a stairset, however it's still sturdy and safe for children of all ages. Stairs are more expensive but they are also very versatile and can be used by kids of all ages.
A new design option is moving the ladder to the end of the bunk bed. This minimalist design is aimed at tweens, teens and young adults. This style is available in all Maxtrix bunk height and size configurations including twin over twin and full over full.
Slides
Bunk beds with slides make for a fun addition to the bedtime routine. Kids love climbing up the ladder and sliding down the slide as well, but bunk beds that have slides give parents peace of mind knowing that their children are safe at night. These beds are great for children who experience anxiety about sleeping on higher levels and can be a a fun way to get into bed even for older kids.
When you are choosing a bunk that has a slide, take into account the size of the room and the furniture it is situated in. Some beds, like the Casey Chestnut Kids Bunk Bed with Slide and Ladder are perpendicular and require more space than other types of bunk beds. But, this bed has the added benefit of a built-in ladder and slide for easy access to the top bunk.
Another option to add slides to bunk beds is the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. The Tower can be mounted on the shorter side of the bed, which can reduce the room depth for a bunk bed with a slide by about 70 cm (depending on assembly height). This permits you to install a kids bed that has slide in rooms that wouldn't normally be suitable.
You can pick low loft beds that have slides as well as bunks with slides. These beds are great for bedrooms with smaller spaces because they offer more floor space for play and storage, and can be used to make a twin over full bunk bed with a trundle, making it possible to accommodate two more children for sleepovers or guests. Like all of our kids bunk and loft beds, this adorable bunk bed and slide that you purchase can be made into any Maxtrix configuration in time as your children grow and change.
When it comes to security, it's crucial to adhere to the general guidelines for bunk beds with slides, as well as all kinds of kids loft beds. Be sure to place the slide on a level surface, away from other structures in the bedroom. It's also recommended that you keep your children safe while playing on the slide, as it can be hazardous if they fall off.
Stores
Many bunk beds and lofts have drawers built in that provide a convenient solution for storing bedding clothes, toys, and other items. If you're looking for ways to maximize space in a small room or provide additional organization to an already crowded kids bedroom, the right bunk bed with storage will help.
Drawers integrated into the stairs combine innovation and safety and safety, allowing children to access their top bunk while keeping their clothes toys, clothes, and other things in order. These drawers can be used as an attractive feature in the bedroom of children to improve the look of the room. Some bunk beds with stair storage also include customizable options so you can adjust the amount of space to meet the needs of your family.
Some loft bed and bunk bed models are equipped with curtains that allow kids to feel like they're in their own private space if they're sharing the same room. This feature is perfect for children who like to read or just dream in the peace. You can buy bunk and loft sets that feature curtains or use curtain rods and simple drapes to create the look yourself.
If you have limited space for floor space and your kids are screaming for bunk beds but you're not able to accommodate two beds, you should consider a corner loft. This design places two elevated beds in a corner of the room. It allows floor space to accommodate other furniture, such as a desk or toy chest or a desk.
Bunk beds with a desk transform sleeping spaces into cozy study areas. They're ideal for children who require an area to work on homework assignments or play their favourite games. Some models, like the Slam bunk bed from Maxtrix comes with solid wood desks with a bookcase to match which allows you to easily make a workspace in your child's room.
The other loft and bunk beds offer a built-in desk on the bottom, perfect for kids younger than 10 who want an area to write, craft or read. This can be an excellent way to encourage the development of creativity and independent learning in your kids' rooms as well as helping them develop valuable organizational skills.
Style
The best bunk bed design for kids will be determined by the size of your room and your child's sleeping habits. If you're living in a cramped space, you might want to consider a twin-overtwin configuration that conserves the floor space, while giving both children the thrill of sleeping together in a high position. If you have higher ceilings, choose an angled bunk such as the one shown. It keeps the ladder at the bottom and leaves the top bed open which makes it easier for children to climb up and down without bumping their heads.
For larger rooms, a full-over-full arrangement is a great option. It offers more storage space, with a deep drawer at the bottom, and allows older children to sleep on the upper floor without feeling secluded. These kinds of bunk beds typically have an incline on the side or a staircase that offers an out-of-sight area for toys and books, as well as a sturdy railing that is slatted to ensure safety.
If you're looking to keep your bunk beds simple, pick an uncluttered color like gray or white. These finishes will fit into any bedroom for children, whether it has a coastal or cottage theme, or a colorful palette. If you're looking for something that's more eye-catching wood finishes like cherry or walnut is also a good choice. It can add warmth to a rustic or farmhouse-inspired room but also provides plenty of visual contrast through bright shades.
Bunks are an excellent way for children to express their creativity. Bunks that have been painted or stained can be the center of a lively and practical kids' bedroom, especially if they come with a detachable slide. The slide can offer hours of fun for your kids as they glide down with their pals or send their favorite plush animal on rides.
For a striking appearance you can consider a bunk bed with a color staircase, such as this one from Furniture Row. The railings for the stairway are available in red, blue or green and comes with a set of three bunk bed color-matched mattresses. The staircase has shelves built into it for books and other items. This ensures that both beds are neat and free of clutter.
