Bunk beds are a great choice for bedrooms for children because they offer extra storage space. When choosing and building a bunk bed, it is essential to think about the safety aspect. Bunk beds that aren't properly built or used incorrectly can cause serious injuries. To avoid injuries, bunk beds must comply with a standard that is mandatory. This standard outlines the essential guidelines regarding construction, usage and maintenance.
Injuries related to bunk beds are mostly due to falls from top or bottom bunks and accidents with ladders. To minimize the risk of injuries, ensure that your bunk bed is adorned with strong guard rails on the sides of the top bunk. They should be at least of 5 inches above the mattress's surface to prevent getting caught and are securely secured to the frame of the bunk bed. Guard rails must also be free of gaps that could let a child fall through.
Additionally, ensure that the top bunk is stocked with a secure guardrail that is at three feet above ground. This will prevent your child from falling out of the bed during sleep or play. To avoid entanglement, guardrails need to be placed at a safe distance from ceiling fans and light fixtures. It's also recommended to ensure that the ladder is placed away from these elements as well to prevent children from climbing up them from the bunk bed.
Only older children (usually six years older or more) should use the top bunk. Younger children may lack the maturity or coordination to navigate the ladder safely. Also, make certain to follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding age and weight limits for each bunk bed.
Encourage your kids to use ladders and not stand on chairs or other furniture to climb up onto the beds. Also, instruct them to use the guardrails on the top bunk to sleep only. It's recommended to repeat these rules until your children fully comprehend the rules. It's a good idea to not let children hang things like belts or scarves from the railings of the bunk on top. These items could cause strangulation if children get trapped in them.
