Why You Should Focus On Enhancing Kids Bunk Bed
Bunk Beds With Ladders and Slides
Bunk beds are a great way to make the most of space, whether you're looking to maximize your floor space, or able to accommodate a large family. Just keep an eye out for items like stairs that protrude out or angled ladders, slides and angled ones.
It's also a good idea to ban hanging items from the top bunk, as they can pose the risk of strangulation.
Ladders
It isn't easy for kids and adults to climb up into the top bunk. While some may be tempted to climb up, this can be risky for older children, or those with joint problems. Ladders are a great solution to this problem and offer an appropriate and safe entry point for children.
There are many ladder options for kids bunk beds including straight and angled ladders. Straight ladders are connected directly to the frame of the bunk bed whereas an angled ladder sticks out slightly from the bed's side. Angled ladders work well in smaller spaces and are suitable for everyone, because they provide more space for feet when climbing up. Ladders also come in different designs and colors so that you can pick one that complements the look of your room or complements your bunk's color scheme.
A bunk bed with stairs built into the side is another great option. Stairs take up more space than ladders, however they don't protrude from the side of the bed. They are an ideal choice for rooms that have plenty of space on the floor. A lot of bunk beds for kids come with cubbies for storage. They are ideal for toys, books, and pajamas.
If you're on a budget, a straight staircase is a cheaper option for bunk beds. Straight ladders may not be as durable as a staircase, but it's still sturdy and safe for children of all different ages. The cost of a stairway is higher, but they are also very versatile and can be used by children of all ages.
A fresh design option is to move the ladder towards the end of the bunk bed. This minimalist design is aimed at teens, tweens and young adults. This style 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 slide provide a fun aspect to time at bedtime.

These beds are perfect for children who have trouble sleeping on higher levels. They can also be a great way for older children to get into bed.
When selecting a bunk bed that has slide, keep in mind the dimensions of your child's bedroom and the furniture that is there. Certain beds, such as the Casey Chestnut Kids' Bunk Bed with Ladder and Slide are perpendicular and require a little more space than other designs. This bed comes with a built-in slide and ladder to allow easy access to the top bunk.
Another option to add a slide to a bunk bed is the Billi-Bolli Slide Tower. The Tower is affixed to the shorter side of the bed, which can reduce the room depth for a bunk bed with slide by around 70 cm (depending on the height of the assembly). This permits you to install the bed for children that has slides in rooms that wouldn't normally be suitable.

Style

If your ceilings are higher than average, you can choose a staggered design. The ladder is kept at the end and leaves the top bunk bed unlocked. This makes it easier for children to climb up and down without bumping into their heads.
A full-over-full arrangement is another option for rooms with more space. It offers more storage with a deep drawer at the bottom, and allows older children to sleep on the upper floor without feeling secluded.

It can add warmth to rooms that are rustic or inspired by farmhouse but also provides plenty of visual contrast with bright shades.
