Safety No matter how fun and exciting the kids' bunk beds appear they should be carefully planned and maintained in order for children to rest comfortably without causing injury. To begin, you'll need to assemble them in a place that is locked. This will stop kids from running around during the assembly and causing falls and injuries. After the bed is assembled and your children are taught how to use the ladder. It is recommended that they not climb or rough-house on the bunks, and to only use the top bunk for sleeping. Only one child should be sleeping on the top bunk at any one time, and it's a good idea install a night light in the area of the ladder to ensure that children can safely climb down if they have to use the bathroom at night or wake up from an episode of nightmare. It is essential that the mattress fits comfortably into the frame and does not hang over the edge. A mattress pad can help ensure this. Also, you should make sure that the slats supporting both the top and bottom mattresses are securely installed and secured at both ends. If the slats have a loose fit mattresses can slide through to the lower bunk and result in injury or an accident. Check the bunks regularly for signs of damage or wear. Check that all bolts, nuts and other fasteners have a smooth surface and no sharp edges or points. Check that the ladder is also free of sharp edges or snags. Keep clutter to a minimum in the bunks' area, particularly at the ladder access point and close to the upper bunk, as it could be an accident or fall risk. If you have a wooden ladder, place carpet beneath it to cushion the landing. This will lower the chance of a child suffering a head injury when they fall off the top bunk. It's a good idea to teach your children to be taught to climb and descend safely and to store the ladder until bedtime.
