A lot of
parents are now thinking that cornerbunk beds with stairs
are not safe for their kids. They are afraid that their children will get
injured or maybe even killed if they use such a bed. However, these are
actually among the safest options for your little ones. There are actually two
main reasons why this is so. One is because the stairs are actually attached to
the side of the bunk bed which means that there is actually no risk of falling
from it.
The second reason is that the ladder that is usually installed along with the bed can be
taken out easily should you ever need to inspect or do maintenance on the
equipment. It would not take much time for you to remove it. Also, most kids
enjoy climbing up and down those stairs. They love to feel like they are
climbing a giant staircase instead of a flat one.
Now that
you have made the decision to go with stairs over an alternative, what are the
factors that you need to keep in mind? Well, first off, you should realize that
most kids safety certificates actually consider two things when studying their
safety. They consider the actual risk of falling from the bed and the potential
risk from the stairs. If you use your stairs correctly and safely, then you
will significantly reduce the chances of them falling.
Another
very important thing to consider is proper assembly. If you purchase a cabin bedwith stairs that does not come with stairs, you must figure out how to install
them. Some beds simply have a flat board with a series of rungs. You have to
carefully measure the area where the stairs will be placed and make sure that
you leave enough room to actually get the rung to the correct position.
Obviously,
you don't want to put your child's health in danger so you must take extra
measures to ensure their safety as well. One of the best safety features on
many bunk beds are tempered glass panes. This adds an extra layer of protection
for the glass. It also makes the glass less likely to break, so it provides
even more protection against harm.
Another
safety feature to look for is the presence of railings on the stairs. These
railings help prevent small children from inadvertently stepping on the stairs,
which can lead to a number of different problems. If the bunk bed comes with a
ladder, make sure that it is at least one foot high and constructed well enough
for your child to easily climb up and down. You also want to make sure that
there are no low-hanging branch or anything else that could potentially fall
down and injure your child.
Another
very important aspect of bunk beds that parents often fail to take into account
is the importance of making sure there is proper hand railing on the stairs. A
lot of accidents occur from sliding off the ladder onto the floor, which is
extremely dangerous. You have to make sure that there's a safety chain on the
stairs at all times. Even if the ladder doesn't have a railing, you should
still include this safety feature in your search for the perfect bed. You
should also consider a safety gate that attaches to the top bunk of the bed, so
your child will be unable to get out without having to climb over the gate.
If you've
decided on the type of playhouse bed with stairs that you're going to purchase, then
you should know what to look for in terms of quality materials. There are two
basic types of wood that are used to construct these stairs. They are either
painted or stained, and you should make sure that the finish you choose for
your stairs matches the color of the rest of the room. You can also buy precut
stairs that will only require drilling. You may even be able to buy precut
stairs that have already been painted or stained, but you might find that they're
not the right color or finish for your room. Whatever choice you make, though,
make sure that you choose wisely.
