Bunk beds are generally suitable for children older than four. However, according to regulations, kids younger than six years old should only sleep on the bottom bunk.
Although only one person should occupy the top bunk, bunks do not have a weight limit, making them appropriate for teens.
Every bunk we provide complies with British Standard Specification 1, or BS EN 747. The following are some of the necessary regulations:
Choosing the Right Mattress for Your Metal Bunk
Metal bunks do not typically come with mattresses. However, here at Land of Beds, we have a wide range that are suitable for all sleep needs and budgets.
Mattress Size and Fit: Make sure you select the correct mattress dimensions for a secure and comfortable fit.
Mattress Thickness: the height of any mattress you choose for a bunk should not exceed 16 cm. Our bed experts are on hand to help advise you.
Typically, bunk beds measure 39 inches (99 cm) wide, 79 inches (200 cm) long, and 65 inches (165 cm) high. A sleeping area that is the same size as a single bed is part of this. However, depending on the style and design of the bed frame, some bunks differ slightly in size. Each product description provides detailed size information.
Standard bunk beds: a classic design perfect for shared kids' rooms.
Triple Sleeper Bunk Beds: space-saving solutions for larger families or frequent sleepovers.
Quadruple Sleepers - two double bed bunks, which can sleep up to four people.
Loft-Style Bunk Beds: these beds combine sleeping and study areas for optimal space utilisation.
Before buying, measure the room to ensure there is at least 24 inches (61 cm) of space between the top bunk and the ceiling.
