Bunk Beds With Ladders and Slides
Bunk beds are an excellent way to make the most of space, whether you're looking to maximize your floor space, or able to accommodate a large family. Be on the lookout for items such as stairs that extend out, angled ladders and slides.
It's also a good idea to ban hanging items from the top bunk as they can pose the risk of strangulation.
Ladders
To get into the top bunk of a bunk bed could be a daunting task for children and adults too. Although some might be enticed to simply climb up, this could create a fall risk and could be hazardous for children, people suffering from joint problems or who are older. Ladders can be a great option to avoid this risk and offer a safe, comfortable and easy-to-climb entry point for kids.
There are a variety of ladder options for kids' bunk beds, including straight and angled ladders. Straight ladders attach directly to the bunk bed frame and angled ladders extend out slightly from either side. Angled ladders are an excellent choice for short spaces and are easy to use for all ages as they allow more space to climb up the bunk. They also come in different colors and styles so you can pick one that complements the look of your space or matches the color scheme of your bunk.
Another option is to select bunk beds that have stairs that are located on the sides of the bunk. They are more space-consuming than ladders, but they don't extend from the bed's sides. They are therefore the ideal option for rooms with plenty of floor space. Many bunk beds for kids come with cubbies for storage. They are great for books, toys, and even pajamas.
If you're on a tight budget straight staircases are an option that is less expensive for bunk beds. Although it's not as durable as a stair set, a straight ladder is still secure and durable enough for children of all different ages to use. Stairs are more expensive, however, they are versatile and can be used by children of all ages.
A new design option is moving the ladder to the end of the bunk bed. This minimalist design is targeted at tweens, teens and young adults. This design is available in all Maxtrix bunk sizes and height configurations including twin over twin full over full, and queen over queen.
Slides
Bunk beds with slides add a thrilling dimension to the bedtime routine. Bunk beds with slides aren't just fun for kids to climb up and down but also provide parents peace-of-mind that their children will be safe at night. These beds are great for children who struggle sleeping at higher levels. They can also be a great way for older kids to fall asleep.
When you are choosing a bunk that has a slide, take into account the size of the room and any furniture that is in it. Certain beds, like the Casey Chestnut Kids Bunk Bed with Slide and Ladder, are perpendicular and require a bit more space than other styles of bunk beds. But, this bed has the added benefit of a built-in ladder and slide to allow easy access to the top bunk.
The Billi-Bolli Slide Tower is another option for adding a slides to a bunk bed. The Tower can be put on the shorter side of the bunk bed to decrease the depth of the room required for a bed with slide. It can be reduced by 70 cm depending on the assembly height. This allows you to instal a slide for your kids in rooms that would normally not be suitable for this kind of bed.
In addition to bunk beds with a slide it is also possible to choose low loft beds with slides. These beds are great for bedrooms with smaller spaces because they provide more space on the floor for play and storage, and can also be used to make a twin over full bunk bed with a trundle, which allows you to accommodate two additional children for sleepovers or guests. Like all of our kids' bunk and loft beds, the adorable bunk bed and slide that you purchase can be transformed into any Maxtrix combo over time as your children change and grow.
When it comes to safety, it's essential to follow the guidelines for bunk beds with slides and all types of loft beds for kids. Make sure the slide is placed on an even surface and is away from any other structures in the room. It's also recommended that you supervise your children while using the slide, as it could be dangerous when they fall off.
kids bunk beds and bunk beds have drawers that are integrated to offer a convenient storage solution for clothing, bedding toys and more. A good bunk bed can make the most of space in a smaller space or organize an overcrowded children's bedroom.
Drawers that are integrated in the stairs bring together safety and innovation that allows kids to safely access their bunk bed while keeping their clothes as well as toys and other items organized. These drawers can be used as a decorative feature in the children's bedroom to improve the look of the room. Some bunk beds that have stair storage are also customizable, so you can customize the space according to the needs of your family.
Some loft bed and bunk bed models are equipped with curtains that allow kids to feel as if they have their own space, even if they're sharing a room. This feature is ideal for children who like to read or just dream in the peace. You can buy loft and bunk sets with curtains or make the look yourself using curtains and rods.
If you're faced with a limited space for floor space and your kids are begging for bunks but you're not able to accommodate two beds, think about a corner loft. This design combines two elevated beds in one corner of the room, while freeing the floor space to accommodate other furniture, like an office or a toy chest.
Bunk beds that have desks 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, come with a solid-wood desk and the bookcase to match which means you can create a work area in your child's room.
Lofts and bunk beds also include a desk at the bottom. This is perfect for younger children who want their own space to write, read, or make crafts. This is a great way to help your child grow their imagination and develop their own skills in their rooms.
Style
The dimensions of your bedroom and your child's sleep habits will determine the best style of bunk bed for your children. If you're living in a cramped space, think about a twin-over-twin arrangement that helps save floor space while still offering both children the pleasure of sleeping together in a high position. If you have taller ceilings, choose an angled bunk such as the one shown. It places the ladder at the other side and opens up the top bed making it easier for kids to climb up and down without smacking their heads.
For rooms with larger spaces, a full-over-full arrangement is a great option. It offers more storage through a deep drawer at the bottom, and allows older kids to sleep on the higher level without feeling as if they're being left out by their younger siblings. These bunk beds typically have an incline on the side or a staircase which provides hidden storage for toys and books and a sturdy railing with slats for security.
If you want to keep your bunk beds simple, pick an uncluttered color like white or gray. These finishes blend in with nearly every kid's room regardless of whether they're a cottage, coastal or colorful palette. If you're looking for something that's more eye-catching and appealing, a wood finish such as cherry or walnut is also a good choice. It provides warmth and a sense of contrast to a rustic or farm-inspired room.
Kids love to decorate their rooms, and bunk beds provide a chance to show their creative side. Bunks with a slide could be the focal point of a fun and functional kids' bedroom. The slide will offer hours of fun for your children as they slide down with their pals or take their favorite toy animal on rides.
For a striking look, consider a bunk bed with a colored staircase like this one from Furniture Row. The railings for the stairs are available in red, green, blue or charcoal. It also has three bunk beds that are in the same color as the railings. The staircase also comes with built-in shelves that can be used to store books and other things, ensuring that both beds are clean and tidy.
