May 8, 2010 - PRLog -- Designing a child's room is not always an easy task. One will find that most children will make their own demands for how things should be laid out. The trouble is that one cannot always keep up to their child's demands for fear of clearing out their bank balance. When decorating a room for children who share a bedroom together is probably an impossible task due to the conflicting needs. With two children sharing one room, the most common thing to place in the room is a bunk bed, which is normally good for saving space and economising in general.

Bunk beds are very often bought by people who generally do not have prior knowledge of what the normal standards for buying a bed of this kind is about. When going out to buy bunk beds one should know that there are regulations for its usage. In other words there may be age restrictions or height restrictions of those suitable to use them. People generally may not always know what to look for when shopping for beds and therefore do not receive the right kind of information when finding the correct kind of bed. It is always a good idea to consult a manufacturer, whats better consult a manufacturer that sells direct to the public.

The basic points to remember when looking for the right kind of bunk bed are whether there is an age restriction, height and weight restriction, strength of the bed, mattress thickness, size and durability. Sometimes the person using the bed may be too young to sleep on the top bunk, which is why it is a good idea to find out what is the age requirement. Furthermore, each bed is usually tested for its strength, not only on how well it can take various weights but also how well the ladder is attached to the bed itself. It is easy to assume the bed is rigid without trying out for size, however when one has purchased the product and finds that the bed is not as strong as expected this can be detrimental to the user and is therefore a health hazard.

Obviously bunk beds are not dangerous, but some organisations may not provide all of the necessary information on the safe usage of the bed. The main thing to focus on is its rigidity and strength. As there are various types of bunk beds each will one will then vary in quality. The standard bunk bed is normally consists of two single beds on top of each other. Other beds can be three sleepers, with the single bed on top and a twin or double bed attached at the bottom. 'L' shaped beds are good for getting a piece of furniture in near the bottom bed and allowing good use of floor space.

Originally a bunk bed was designed for use in cabins and dormitories, which is why they are commonly seen in military buildings as they were ideal for allowing more individuals to stay in one room at one time. Therefore, buying a bunk bed has its advantage for utilising floor space well. In terms of safety, before purchasing the bed, unless the bed is for an adult it is always a good idea to make sure that there are guard rails on the top bunk to prevent children from falling off.

Other factors concerning a bunk bed is making sure that the mattress on the top bunk is not simply placed just enough to fit on the frame. Any gaps between the frames may risk in the child falling through, or become trapped in between tight spaces. To prevent situations like these, additional crosspieces should be applied to the frame for extra support. Tailor-made and made-to-measure mattresses should only be used on the top so as not to cause the damaged to the frame.

As children are more likely to feel excited and playful on the bunk bed, they should always be instructed on how to use the bed, for instance making sure that they do not swing from the frames and to use the ladder only for reaching the top bunk
