Safety
A mid-sleeper or cabin bed can be a wonderful solution for reducing space, but it's essential to ensure safety precautions. This means ensuring that the ladders are safe and sturdy to use, educating youngsters on how to climb up and down them correctly, and stressing that the top bunk isn't intended for playing. You may also want to install a clip light on the ladder to make it more visible in the dark.
Some beds come with a guard rail integrated into the frame, which could add an extra layer of protection for children. This is especially beneficial in small bedrooms, where bunk beds can be difficult to navigate without the risk of falling over furniture or other objects within the room.
It's important to avoid placing the bed too near blinds (especially cords) or heaters, as well as ceiling fans. A bed that is too close to the wall can cause serious injury and entrapment. A mid sleeper or cabin bed should be at minimum 3.5" away from the wall to reduce this danger.
Another important safety tip is to not hang anything from the railings that guard the top bunk. If a child gets caught in scarves, belts or similar items, they can strangle them. This is particularly a problem when kids are sleeping and can occur in the blink of an eye, so it is best to keep these items out of reach.
If you're looking to buy a mid sleeper or a cabin bed, opt for one with full-length security rails on all sides to offer an additional security measure for your children. Don't solely rely on the wall for a safety barrier. A child could get trapped between the mattress and the wall and die.
The last thing to do is make sure you follow the directions for assembly and regularly check all screws and connectors to ensure the bed is solid and will not move. If you are unsure you're not sure, consult an expert for help. A solidly constructed bunk bed will last a long time, but it's important to stay on the safe side and not to compromise when it comes to safety.
