Safety While injuries to bunk beds can occur, they're usually a result of unsafe methods or poor construction, rather than an issue with the design or manufacture of the beds themselves. It is essential to make the effort to study the safety features of your child's mattress carefully prior to allowing them to sleep in it and ensure that any other children sleeping over know the rules of bunk bed safety, too. One of the most important aspects of bunk bed security is that it must be strong enough to withstand the weight of two children who sleep on it without bending or falling over. In addition, it is an ideal idea to ensure that all of the wooden elements are smooth and free from any sharp edges or corners that could cause injuries. Metal fasteners that extend from the bed frame may cut or pull clothes. Another key security feature is the guard rails. They should be at a minimum of five inches tall, and run along all sides of the mattress. There should also be no gaps or openings in the mattress or wall that a child's head legs or torso could get caught in since they could pose serious strangulation risks. It is also important to ensure that your children do not hang anything on the bunk bed, especially belts or scarves since they can become tangled and pose a serious strangulation risk. It is also recommended to keep any equipment for sports, such as skipping ropes, out of the bunk beds because they could also pose strangulation hazards. bunk beds double but not least do not allow one child to sleep on the upper bunk until they reach the age of six years old and you have taken the necessary steps to ensure they are able to safely climb up and down the ladder every day.
