You have decided that a bunk bed is just what you need for your growing family. You have picked the perfect one for your home and budget. It has just been delivered and your children are so excited. Now, it is time to set it up and start using it. Follow the manufacturers recommendations for set up. In addition, here are few simple tips to ensure a safe set up.
Obviously, you do not want a bunk bed in the middle of the room. You want to set the bed against at least one wall. But setting it in a corner will give wall support to two sides of the bed instead of one. Always make sure the bed is flush up against the wall. Never have it pushed out from the wall so someone could fall down between the bed and the wall.
Bunk Bed Mattress
Hopefully, you have done some measuring before you ordered the bed. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recommends you have at least 2 meters from the top bunk to the ceiling. This prevents injury from heads hitting the ceiling as well as injuries from ceiling fans or light fixtures.
Mattress size is very important in bunk beds. Never use a hand me down that is about the right size. Always use the recommended size for the bunk bed as per the manufacturer. Failure to do this could cause open space between the mattress and frame posing the possibility of falling and entrapment.
Ladders need to be bolted securely to the frame. Never use a loose or removable ladder. Always use the recommended ladder for that particular bunk bed. Discourage children from using other creative ways to get to the top bunk of the bed.
Once the bunk bed is set up, check it carefully for openings that could allow a child to fall through and become entrapped. These openings could be between the wall and bed or between the bed and the mattress. Always be alert to new openings or loose, wobbly parts due to normal wear and tear. Correct them promptly.
If the bed meets all safety standards, is assembled correctly, is placed in a corner, has the correct mattress size, and has a stable attached ladder, it should be ready for use. Be sure to follow all the manufactures recommendations and enjoy your new bunk bed.
