Take a look at the dimensions of your room with the dimensions of a bunk bed before you purchase it. You'll need to ensure that there's enough space for your children to climb up and down the ladder (or stairs if the bunk has stairs) and to move around the loft without crashing into furniture or walls. It is also important to consider the height of the bunk bed as well as headroom in relation with your child's standing and sitting height. You may need to buy a shorter bunk to accommodate younger children, while older children may prefer a higher setup.

Bunk beds for children are available in two styles - twin-overtwin or full-overfull. Both are great to accommodate multiple children in a single room. Some bunks include the option of a trundle bed for more guests during sleepovers.

This will prevent your children from falling out of their beds, which is risky for safety.

Another thing to take into consideration is the amount of space between the top bunk and the guardrails. The CPSC recommends the top bunk's mattress to not be higher than 5 inches higher than the guardrail. This will stop your children from rolling out of mattress in the middle of the night and crashing into the guardrails, which could cause entrapment or falls.

The height of the top bunk should be kept to a maximum of four feet, and there should be guardrails on both sides of the bed. The space between the guardrails shouldn't be wider than 3 1/2 inches to prevent death and make sure that your child isn't able to roll under the guardrail while sleeping. The mattress on the bottom should be secured by wires or slats running directly underneath the bunk. They must also be secured at both ends. This will prevent your child from falling through a gap.

The ladders or stairs must be attached to the bunk bed and secure and should provide a safe means of climbing to the upper level. Make sure the ladder isn't near any dangers and that your children understand that they should use it only for climbing into bed, not as an area for play. Avoid rough play on the bunks as this can compromise their stability.
