Safety
A mid sleeper or a cabin bed can be a wonderful space-saving option, but it's essential to ensure safety precautions. It's crucial to ensure that the ladders you choose to use are sturdy and safe. instruct children on how to climb them safely and stress that the top bunk should not be used to play. Install a clip-on light on the ladder so that it is visible at night.
Some beds have a guard rail that is integrated into the frame, which can provide an extra layer of safety for children. This is especially useful in small bedrooms where a bunkbed can be difficult to maneuver.
It is essential to ensure that the bed is not too close to blinds (especially cords) heaters, blinds, or ceiling fans. If the bed is placed too close to the wall, it could lead to entrapment and serious injuries. A mid sleeper or cabin bed should be at least 3.5" away from the wall to reduce this danger.
Another vital safety point is to avoid hanging anything from the railings that guard the top bunk. Belts, scarves, and similar items could strangle a child if they are caught. This is particularly a problem when children are asleep. It can occur in the blink of an eye, so it's best to keep these items away from reach.
If you're looking to buy a mid sleeper or cabin bed, look for one with full-length security rails on all sides to provide an additional security measure for your children. Also, don't rely on the wall as a security rail because a child could get stuck between the mattress and the wall, which could prove fatal.
The last thing to do is make sure you follow the steps for assembly and check regularly all screws and connectors to ensure that the bed is sturdy and won't move. If you're not sure you're not sure, consult an expert to help. If you want to ensure that your bunk bed will last for many years it is advisable to be on the safe side.
