Bunk Beds With Ladders and Slides
Whether you're outfitting rooms for siblings, maxing out your floor space, or accommodating a whole family bunk beds can be a excellent use of small space. Be on the lookout 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 a strangulation risk.
Ladders
It can be difficult for both adults and kids to climb up into the top bunk. While some might be tempted to climb up, this could create a fall risk and can be dangerous for children, people suffering from joint problems or who are older. kids bunk beds can be a great solution to this issue and provide a safe and comfortable entry point for children.
There are a range of ladder options for bunk beds for children including straight and angled ones. Straight ladders connect directly to the frame of the bunk bed while an angled ladder sticks out slightly from the bed's side. Angled ladders are an excellent choice for short spaces and are a breeze to use for all ages as they offer more space for feet when climbing up the bunk. Ladders are available in a variety of different styles and colors and styles, so you can choose one that complements the scheme of your bunk or matches your room.
A bunk bed with stairs built into the side is another fantastic option. Stairs take up more space than ladders, but they don't protrude out of the bed's sides. They are therefore a great option for rooms with plenty of space for floor. Many bunk beds for kids that have stairs also feature convenient cubbies that double as storage for the bed, perfect to store books, toys and pajamas.
If you're on a tight budget, a straight staircase is an option that is less expensive for bunk beds. Although it's not as high-quality as a stair set, a straight ladder is still secure and durable enough for kids of all different ages to use. Stairs however, are a bit more expensive, but they're also extremely versatile and can be used by kids of all ages as they grow up.
A new design choice is moving the ladder to the top of the bunk bed. This minimalist design is targeted at tweens, teens and young adults. This style is available in all Maxtrix bunk sizes and heights, including twin over twin and full over full.
Slides
Bunk beds with slides add an exciting addition to time at bedtime. Bunk beds with slides are not only fun for kids to climb up and down and down, but they also offer parents the peace of mind knowing that their children will be safe in the evening. These beds are ideal for kids who have anxiety about sleeping at higher levels. They can also be an enjoyable method of getting into bed, even for older kids.
When choosing a bunk with slide, think about the dimensions of the room as well as the furniture it is situated in. Some beds, such as the Casey Chestnut Kids Bunk Bed with Slide and Ladder are perpendicular and require a bit more space than other styles of bunk beds. This bed comes with a built-in slide and ladder to allow easy access to the top bunk.
Another option for adding an additional slide to a bunk bed is the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. The Tower can be mounted on the short side of the bed which can reduce the required room depth for a bunk bed with a slide by around 70 centimeters (depending on the height of assembly). This permits you to install a kids bed that has slide in rooms that would normally be suitable.
You can also choose low loft beds with slides, in addition to bunks with slides. These beds are ideal for small bedrooms, as they provide more space to play and storage. They can also be transformed into a twin-over-full bunk bed that has a trundle in order to accommodate two more children for sleepovers. Like all of our kids bunk and loft beds, this adorable bunk bed and slide you purchase can be made into any Maxtrix combo in time as your children change and grow.
When it comes to safety, it's important to adhere to the general guidelines for bunk beds that have slides and all types of kids loft beds. Make sure that you place the slide on a flat surface, and away from other structures in the bedroom. It is also recommended that you keep your children safe while using the slide, since it can be hazardous if they fall off.
Stores
Many lofts and bunk beds come with integrated drawers that provide a convenient solution to store bedding as well as clothing and toys. The right bunk bed can aid in maximizing space in a smaller room or help you organize a crowded child's bedroom.
Drawers built into the stairs combine the latest technology and safety that allows kids to access their bunk beds and keep their clothes toys, clothes, and other items in order. They can also be a fun, decorative accent in the bedroom of your child and add to the appeal of the room. Some bunk beds with storage for stairs also include customizable options so you can customize the space to the needs of your family.
Some bunk beds and loft beds come with curtains to make children feel as if they're in their own space even if they're sharing the same room. This feature is great for kids who love to read or just dream in the peace. You can purchase bunk and loft sets with curtains, or create the look by yourself using curtains and rods.
If your kids are begging to sleep in bunk beds but you don't have enough space to accommodate two elevated beds, consider a corner loft or twin loft. This design combines two elevated beds in one corner of the room, freeing the floor space for other furniture, such as a desk or a toy chest.
Bunk beds with desks transform sleeping spaces into cozy study areas. They're great for children who require a quiet space to work on homework assignments or play their favourite games. Some models, like the Slam bunk bed from Maxtrix offers a solid wooden desk that comes with a bookcase to match to make it easy to make a workspace in your child's room.
Other bunk and loft beds have a desk built on the bottom, perfect for kids younger than 10 who want a separate space to write, draw or read. This is an ideal way to promote independent learning and creativity in your kids' rooms while helping them develop important organizational skills.
Style
The dimensions of your bedroom and your child's sleep habits will determine the ideal design of bunk beds for your children. If you're in a tight space, think about a twin-over-twin arrangement that saves floor space while still offering both children the pleasure of sleeping together up high. If you have taller ceilings, opt for a staggered bunk layout like the one shown here. It places the ladder at the end and leaves the top bunk bed open. This allows children to climb up and back down without bumping into their heads.
For larger rooms, a full-over-full arrangement is also a good option. It gives more storage space through an extensive drawer on the bottom and allows older children to sleep on a higher level without feeling they're being ignored by their younger siblings. These bunk beds are usually equipped with a ladder or staircase to the side that offers hidden storage for toys and books, as well a sturdy safety rail.
If you're looking to keep the design of your bunks simple choose a simple solid color such as white or gray. These finishes go well with nearly every kid's room, whether they have a cottage, coastal or colorful palette. If you're looking to make your room more attractive, a wood finish like cherry or walnut is also an excellent choice. It brings warmth and contrast to the rustic or farm-inspired space.
Bunks are a great way for kids to express their creativity. Bunks that have been painted or stained can be the focal point of a fun and functional kids bedroom particularly if they are equipped with a slide that can be detached. The slide can give hours of fun to your kids as they glide down with their friends or take their favorite toy animal on rides.
For a striking look, consider a bunk bed that has a colored staircase, such as this one from Furniture Row. The railings for the stairs are available in red, green blue, or charcoal. It also includes three bunk beds that are in the same color as the railings. The staircase has shelves built into it for books and other objects. This makes sure that the beds are neat and clutter-free.
