Safety

Bunk beds are an excellent option for a child's bedroom. However they can pose a risk if not properly inspected or constructed. About 36,000 injuries caused by bunk beds require emergency care each year. Fortunately, the majority of these injuries are minor. Children who are younger are at most risk of injury because they do not have a full-blown sense of space. They are more likely to use their beds for play and leap off the top bunk. This is one of the reasons why the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends parents not allow children under six to sleep on the top bunk.

Parents can ensure their children's bunk beds are safe by following a few simple rules. For instance a ladder must be put on the outside of the bunk and not inside it. Also, the rails should be at least five inches higher than the mattress, and the space to climb in and out of bed should not exceed fifteen inches. The beds should not be placed in close proximity to windows or behind furniture which could fall on children while they sleep.

Parents should follow the instructions of the manufacturer when building a bunkbed. Screws should be tightened with care but not to the point that they scratch the wood. Additionally, the bed should not creak or rock. It is also a good idea to have the bunk beds inspected by a professional when they are put together and to have them tested by an expert before giving children the ability to use them.

Bunk beds can free up space in a child's bedroom and add style. It is important that parents establish rules for their children and supervise them closely to prevent injuries.
